Afghanistan-made sport car ‘back in business’
The designer of Afghanistan’s “Helmet” sports car said on Tuesday that after posting his message on social media last week about suspending work on the vehicle, the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan (IEA) stepped forward to help resolve their problems.
Mohammad Reza Ahmadi, the creator of the sports car, said in a new video message that there had been a “misunderstanding” and that the company’s problems had been resolved.
As such, work on the car is expected to resume soon, he said. Last week Ahmadi said the company had been forced to suspend work due to a lack of financing and growing debt.
“After that video that we published, due to the large debt, the government quickly took action and provided us with a dedicated place, means of transportation, and operating budget so that we can continue our work. Also, coordination was made with the relevant ministries,” Mohammad Reza Ahmadi said in the new video on social media.
In this video, he said there had been a “misunderstanding”due to the “bureaucratic system”.
“I think that the misunderstanding was created from paper [bureaucratic system]. For a while we were victims of paper. However, the bureaucratic system cannot be, nor is it possible for it not to be, the issue is a bit complicated but fortunately paper was removed from our work process,” Ahmadi added.
He also said that work will resume on the car and hopefully between now and Eid al-Adha they will be able to showcase the sports car around the country.
He still expressed hope however that investors will step forward to help.
The sports car made in Afghanistan was exhibited three months ago and was noticed inside and outside of Afghanistan after being on display on the roads of Kabul a few months ago.
This sports car was built by a company called NTOP, and according to officials, it took five years to build at a cost of $60,000.
