For over a century, Ford Motors has been one of America's top car companies delivering its trucks and SUVs to the hands of consumers globally.

Philip See speaks to Ford's ASEAN president to understand the challenges she faces in a post-Covid era for the auto industry as well as Ford's EV strategies for the region.
