No camera company is making a profit in these difficult economic times, and so it is not surprising that they will restructure and close shop where it does not make sense. Nikon is doing just that, closing its operations in Malaysia and relying on third parties for distribution, marketing, sales and after-sales service of its cameras.
While it’s true that closing operations in one country may not seem like much, but remember that country was chosen to be the hub to serve other countries around it. So, it’s not just Malaysia that is affected, but all the other countries around it that it used to serve that are also negatively affected.
