Bike Mystery / Mystery Bike (?)

I picked this up today for free, should test my de-rusting skills. I've tried my best to research the brand, but with absolutely success. The Overall bike is a 'Commodore', crankset has 'Pointer' cast on the arm and again I can't find any info on this either. It's a low end 10 speed, but what the hell is it? Anyone? I'm starting to think it might have been accidentally left here by aliens.

Photo of the whole bike please.

Probably a low-end boom bike, made by a big factory and sold to whoever put the stickers on.

I'm assuming low-end early/mid eighties Taiwan manufactured, but I'd be really interested in any other bits of info on the history or which country the brand relates to. Here are some more photos:
