Welcome to a website dedicated for WAJA owners. We hope that we can provide some beneficial information for current and intended owners. It is our wish that members obtain the optimum enjoyment out of the WAJA by providing information, discussion, merchandise and practical advice, in addition to bringing together and keeping in touch with those of like mind and passion for the WAJA. The essence of WPC's objectives can be summarized below,

a. Enjoying your WAJA;
b. Making new Friends;
c. Sharing your Joy and Pain; and
d. Having fun.

We will be frank and realistic with members. Whilst the membership does not offer any special privileges, WPC also does not offer any promises. The club is alive as long as the members wish for it to stay alive. The Club may have a finite life and lose momentum within a few months or years. It would be unrealistic to expect that people may not graduate to other vehicles in the meantime over the course of time and forget the WAJA. What we do wish is that your time here with WPC brings you fond memories. We assure that you will be ENRICHED with new acquaintances and WEALTHIER with automobile knowledge exchanged within WPC.

The Beginning

The WAJA Performance Club was an informal club in its early stage of gestation in late 2000. Primarily, the idea of a club for WAJA owners was mooted in the discussion forum of Autoworld at www.autoworld.com.my where topics regarding the Proton WAJA were discussed be various forum participants both prior to and after the official launch of the WAJA on 8th of May, 2000 at Stadium Malawati in Shah Alam. Keen interest was shown as the then existing Proton WIRA model was to be replaced after an illustrious 8 year dominance with a new car that supposedly was 100% designed by Malaysians and had a composition ratio of 80% of components sourced locally. The various discussion centred on the WAJA’s engine capacity, handling, performance, build quality, etc. It was through these said discussions informally for a few members to propose and moot the idea of a legally incorporated club to focus the discussions, achieve a homogeneous or otherwise source of information and harvest ideas about the WAJA, warts and all, from a few enthusiastic owners. It is our wish that members obtain the optimum enjoyment out of the WAJA by providing information, discussion, generic merchandise and practical advice, in addition to bringing together and keeping in touch with those of like mind and passion for the WAJA.

Driving the Future Setting the Standard

The club motto is desired to reflect the aspirations, expectations and realisation of our dream of what Proton is we hope is evolving into.

Club Logo

WPC's logo adopts a new logo based on the Proton WAJA as depicted in the panel. "WAJA Performance Club" appears in the logo while "WPC" appears to emphasize that WPC embraces Proton in the spirit of friendship and unity in its pursuit of a common goal while retaining its unique identity. In principle, the word have been balanced with the above and below logo to depict uniformity and oneness of purpose of the members while the WAJA word is solid in its form retains its character as the bedrock and anchor where the source of support is derived from.

Driving the Future

WPC firmly believes that the Proton WAJA is Proton's benchmark in terms of styling and handling which Proton has best desired and strived to incorporate the wishes of its customers based on feedback. Being an automotive manufacturer where the design process was truly in its grasp and the ultimate future of the local automotive industry hangs in the balance, Proton has not cannot afford to make mistakes with the WAJA as its destiny lies within its own hands. WPC in sharing this aim adopted the motto, "Driving the Future" to symbolise the advent and introduction of the WAJA which we hope will drive Proton's Future. Setting the Standards WPC believes that it is not and will not evolve into a rubber-stamp club nor silent supporter of Proton when required. WPC will state the facts as it finds them and state the obvious where others fear to tread. It must be understood that WPC is not a consumer group nor serves any partisan interests be it political or activist, local or foreign. WPC in its discussions and review of the WAJA seeks to actively highlight deficiencies and problems in the WAJA for the benefit of Proton and ultimately WAJA owners. The standards set and the feedback relayed, we hope will become the norm for the future. We hope it is reciprocated by Proton for everyone's benefit.
