Excerpts below is the letter from Phil. vehicle parts manufacturer association supporting this AUV.
"Dear Sir/Madam:
Greetings!! The Motor Vehicle Parts Manufacturers Association of the Philippines (MVPMAP) is an organization of over 130 local auto parts makers that supply the original equipment and after-sales parts requirements of the automotive industry.
Our association is the driving force behind the PhUV Consortium. The PhUV is a truly Pinoy vehicle, an AUV-based vehicle designed to carry both passengers and cargo. It is thus ideal for business use on weekdays and family use on weekends. This trail blazing concept has generated widespread excitement and support throughout the automotive industry.
It is with pride that MVPMAP invites you to be our partner in shaping the development of the Philippine Auto Industry. In the process you will help more than 50,000 Filipino workers retain their jobs, a benefit that would have a trickle down effect of about five times. Our partnership will come in the form of a sponsorship package that will help ensure that the PhUV prototype and the entire program itself will become a reality.
The target date for the launching of the PhUV is on the week of June 11-15, 2007. It will be an appropriate way to celebrate our Independence Day.
Details of the sponsorship package are attached. I look forward to meeting with you.
Thank you.
