By Lo Tien-pin and Jonathan Chin / Staff reporter, with staff writerA new presidential security vehicle is expected to be delivered in October, a senior National Security Bureau official said on Saturday. The vehicle resembles other Audis in the presidential motorcade to enhance security and secrecy, the official said. In light of emerging threats, the bureau does not believe the fleet meets the Presidential Office’s security needs, the official said. The vehicle was not bought using the presidential car budget, sparking controversy. Security vehicle procurement plans would be improved to reflect lawmakers’ concerns and submitted one to two years before an order is placed, the official said.
