Seagate Reportedly Scraps Indonesian Plant Plans Due To Social Unrest JAKARTA -(Dow Jones)- The U.S. disk-drive maker Seagate Technology Inc. canceled its investment in Indonesia because of concerns over political instability in the country, a local newspaper reported Wednesday. The daily Kompas reported Seagate had planned to build its factory in Medan, North Sumatra, with an investment of 10 trillion rupiah ($1.32 billion), but canceled the plan in light of the recent social unrest in Indonesia and decided to develop factory in Subic, in the Philippines. The government last year granted a nine-year tax break to Seagate Technology Sumatra, a company set up to operate the Medan operation. Copyright (c) 1998 Dow Jones & Company, Inc.
