BANGKOK, Dec 7 (Reuters) – Thailand’s Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin on Thursday said he showed Tesla executives around industrial estates in the country last week for potential investment.
“I went out of my way to entertain them so they would fall in love with Thailand …. they are looking for 2,000 rai (320 hectares) of land,” Srettha said, adding he was confident that the electric vehicle (EV) maker would invest in Thailand.
Srettha, a political newcomer, became prime minister in August and held a meeting with Tesla chief Elon Musk a month later.
