Yeah, I was reading this earlier.

They expect to keep manufacturing open until 2016, then after just R&D and sale of foreign models only.

The Oz car manufacturing just cannot complete with other manufacturers as the costs of operations i.e. high wages, high costs of materials etc... is just too much.

Unless GM injects another lot of $b of $ into Holden they will also be next on the chopping block.

The only upside to this is that competition between other manufacturers will be even more fierce (in order to capture more market share) and naturally costs of motor vehicle prices will drop....and about bloody time too as 35K for a new Holden POS is just ridiculous.

that is biggest issue.....in order for the Oz car industry to remain competitive the Govt has imposed huge import fees and duties.

the only problem is that I cannot foresee the Govt doing anything about it nor reducing those import taxes and duties.

Sad loss for those workers as you said it could of been rectified a while ago.
