Phnom Penh, June 17, 2024 – In a promising development for Cambodia's industrial sector, Alexander Weichsel, Commercial Plant Manager at Bosch Group, has agreed to send a delegation from their Singapore and Vietnam offices to explore the possibility of establishing a manufacturing facility in Cambodia.

This initiative follows a meeting with First Deputy Prime Minister and First Vice President of the Council for the Development of Cambodia, Sun Chanthol, who expressed keen interest in Bosch’s operations. The Deputy Prime Minister's office highlighted the strategic advantages Cambodia offers as an investment location within Southeast Asia during their discussion on Thursday, June 13, 2024.
