Libya Threatens to Banish Korean Companies

Korean construction companies in Libya are facing a critical situation because the Libyan government is now considering the expulsion of all Korean nationals due to the Korean government's support of the U.S. attack on Iraq last month.
Libya's governmental news agency JANA issued a warning message to Korea's major construction companies. Dong-A, Hyundai and Daewoo are anxiously monitoring the situation.
A source from Dong-A said, 'In the past, this sort of warning was issued but no actual expulsion ever occurred. I hope this time is also just a cautionary warning.'
Six Korean companies in Libya are working on 26 projects worth 10 billion dollars.
