The nominees for the awards above consist of cars crash tested by ASEAN NCAP. Awards are based on crash test performance. The next round of awards will be in 2016 - hopefully more Malaysian or ASEAN market cars will have been crash tested by then so we'll be able to see award winners picked from a larger pool of nominees. We're also proud to say we were a winner for the Media Contribution Award for our efforts in promoting vehicle safety in Malaysia.

ASEAN NCAP Chairman, Prof. Dr. Wong Shaw Voon, who is also the Director-General of the Malaysian Institute of Road Safety Research (MIROS) said, "I'm very indebted to all parties who has helped MIROS and realized our NCAP dream so far. It started with a small effort with outdoor crash testing, the paper-based star-rating evaluation in MyVAP (Malaysian Vehicle Assessment Program) and today we managed to have the NCAP not only for Malaysia but also for the benefit of the ASEAN region. I'm also indebted to the government of Malaysia for putting the trust on us, MIROS and ASEAN NCAP, to introduce this kind of intervention in road safety with both financial and technical support."

ASEAN NCAP Secretary-General, Mr. Khairil Anwar Abu Kassim, added, "We hope ASEAN NCAP will grow stronger and be one of the influential platforms for car safety as well as for road safety as a whole. I'm looking forward for healthy competition among the manufacturers to produce safer cars with commendable safety standard. I personally looking forward for a 5-Star car with an affordable price in the region, and perhaps with only one or two variants per model for ASEAN region with safety not being compromised. We will see the result in the next Grand Prix two years from now."
