PIAM backs new motor vehicle smash repair standards

The standard was approved by the Minister of Investment, Trade and Industry Malaysia.

The General Insurance Association of Malaysia (PIAM) said it fully supports the Malaysian Standard – Motor Vehicle Aftermarket Smash Repair Requirements. 

This merit was approved by YB Senator Tengku Datuk Seri Utama Zafrul Tengku Abdul Aziz, Minister of Investment, Trade and Industry Malaysia (MITI), last 30 May.

“This heralds a new era of excellence and professionalism within the motor vehicle accident repair industry and is poised to complement the imminent release of the Insurers and Takaful Operators – Repairers Code of Conduct, in collaboration with Bank Negara Malaysia, the general insurance and takaful industry and the motor repair industry and Jabatan Pengangkutan Jalan Malaysia’s (JPJ) Accident Collision Repair Guidelines, promoting the unified regulatory improvements across the sector,” PIAM said in a media release.
