South African-born US entrepreneur Elon Musk’s Tesla Inc has not yet requested a business licence with the Ministry of Commerce as of April 6, ministry spokesman Pen Sovicheat told The Post.
The remark came days after a sizable billboard advertisement for the US-based electric vehicle maker sprouted up on an unopened showroom covered with its brand logo along Russian Federation Boulevard across the road from the ministry.
This sparked a flurry of comments and images on internet forums and Facebook groups fanning rumours that Tesla was set to establish its footprint in Cambodia, with some pointing out similarly-named firms listed in the ministry’s business registry.
