DJ,

Under U.S and EU antitrust laws, merged firms, both domestic and
foreign, are required to obtain a prior approval if their combined
annual turnovers exceed $100 million and $2.7 billion, respectively.
The combined turnovers of Hyundai and LG chip units reached $3 billion
last year.

Moreover, U.S. efforts to block possible use of the IMF money as subsidies for
Korean industries drew particular attention, as Seoul is considering
extending massive financial assistance to facilitate swaps and mergers
among affiliates of the top-five groups.


That's what I've been telling you guys lately. Worst part is that there'll
be no more bank loans available to those who can't stand alone among
5 JaiBols' subs. after 30, 98. They can't get any IMF to bail them out either.
"Check Mate!"

DJ, Now this story is potentially good news for MU. The story about the merger was interpreted as good news by the market, but it was another slice off whatever business grip MU may have. IMHO, the deal goes through after tough talks. This is called negotiating.
