SK Group chief warns South Korea lagging in chip construction pace

Original: SK Group Chairman Chey Tae-won warns South Korea is falling behind Micron and Chinese rivals on sheer facility construct

SK Group Chairman Chey Tae-won says South Korea is falling behind Micron and Chinese memory chip rivals not on technology but on the speed of facility construction.

Why now: Chey's warning about permitting delays and Chinese and US competition touches South Korea's core industrial competitiveness in memory chips.
