Nothing special offered to Musk to invest in Malaysia, says PM


KOTA ISKANDAR: Malaysia did not offer anything special to entice billionaire Elon Musk to make a quick decision to invest in the country, says Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

The Prime Minister said many nations were trying to entice Musk to invest in their respective countries.

"I was asked this by the chief editor of an international magazine who wanted to know what we offered to entice Musk to make a quick decision to invest in Malaysia.

"Actually, all our policies are already existing. Maybe now through this unity government, we can offer four years of political stability, economic clarity and our Madani economic policies," he said, adding there is also the ease of doing business.

He was speaking during the 2024 Budget Roadshow to about 200 people here on Friday (Aug 25).

During a meeting with Anwar last month, Musk who is also Tesla chief executive officer, expressed an interest in settling up a Tesla office as well as service centres in Malaysia.
