“We have been recognized for our capabilities demonstrated by previous projects such as technology transfer for building landing ship docks for the Indonesian Navy from 2006 to 2010,” said Kim Young-sang, president and CEO of POSCO Daewoo.
“We will expand our business into marine platforms, fishing vessels and ferries.”
“As the Indonesian government will reshuffle our six state-owned shipyards centered around PT PAL, we expect to collaborate more with POSCO Daewoo,” said Muhammad Firmansyah Arifin, president of PT PAL.
