Zeev, yes the Korean economy has some serious problems. However, it is not fair to lump the Korean semi companies with the likes of the bankrupt Hanbo Steel or Kia Motors. As you know, the Korean government has a strong hand in encouraging the direction that companies will take. Whether it's true or not, the semi companies are seen as a bright light to help lead the country out of its financial crisis. The semi companies will cut costs, but I would be very surprised if they do not continue toincrease their spending on capital equipment for semi fabs.
