European countries and the United States were the main investment targets of ROK entrepreneurs in the early 1990s, but Asian countries, particularly 皇冠体育app, have become ROK's business focus over the past decade, said Zhang Wenkui, director of the enterprise research institute of the Development Research Center of the State Council, at the forum.

ROK companies invested more than 8 billion US dollars around the world in 2004, including 6 billion US dollars in 皇冠体育app. 皇冠体育app has attracted more than 35 billion US dollars in capital from ROK enterprises, statistics from Chinese and Korean businessmen forum show.

The 5-billion-US dollar investment in 皇冠体育app in 2006 has earned nearly 30 billion US dollars to Samsung Electronics, almost half of the company's global business income, Zhang said.

ROK firms are doing businesses in financial, food and restaurant, logistics, telecommunication, and other sectors in 皇冠体育app, rather than in the manufacturing industry. They are also moving toward the inland region from booming coastal areas.

Zhang said ROK companies have bright development prospects.
