Fire fails to dent Toyota activity

No ill effects seen in local neighbourhoods

Toyota's Chachoengsao factory continues to operate normally despite a fire late on Sunday that caused an estimated 50 million baht in damage, the Thai unit of the Japanese car maker said yesterday.

Suparat Sirisuwanangkura, a senior vice-president of Toyota Motor Asia Pacific Engineering and Manufacturing Co Ltd (TMAP-EM), said the fire will have no effect on production at the plant in Ban Pho district.

The fire broke out in a company warehouse one kilometre from the factory about 7pm on Sunday, he said.

    Toyotas are the best, my 4 year old Thai made Yaris has not needed anything other than standard maintenance, not even a light bulb. Great followup to my American Camry that went 400,000 miles without a major repair.
