Pakistan has a colossal auto-parts industry. According to some calculations it is the 4th largest in the world. However the industry is not export oriented, and quality remains an issue.

Close cooperation with Malaysia would help Pakistan improve its auto-parts industry and direct it towards exports to the Middle East, Asia and the West.
