Daewoo Heavy President Safe For Now

Maritime Activity Reports, Inc.

December 7, 1999

Creditors voted to retain Daewoo Heavy Industries President Shin Young-kyun as president of its shipbuilding division and picked Yang Jae-shin, president of Daewoo Motor's Poland subsidiary, to lead Daewoo Heavy's machinery division.
