MCA president and ex-transport minister Dr Wee Ka Siong has posted on his social media platforms urging carmakers to reconsider selling brands new cars without ABS and ESC in the Malaysian market, calling them minimum safety standards that should be included on all cars sold. He said these safety features should not be compromised to bring prices of cars down to ‘rahmah’ levels. He used the recently launched Perodua Axia E priced at RM22k as an example in his post.

if the vehicle is understeering , the ESC system might apply the brakes to the inside rear wheel to create a torque that helps the vehicle turn. If the vehicle is oversteering , the ESC system might apply the brakes to the outside front wheel to counteract the spin.
