Queen Will Ride in a "Chairman"

Great Britain's Queen Elizabeth the Second will be driven around in Daewoo Motor's top-of-the-line model, the 'Chairman', during her visit to Korea.
Daewoo announced on April 8, 'Our Chairman was selected as the official car for the Queen and her husband, the Duke of Edinburgh, and we will be offering two sedans and two limousines of the Chairman model. Traditionally the royal family's official car was either a Rolls Royce or Mercedez Benz, so Daewoo is honored by the decision.'
Daewoo's main rival, Hyundai, commented, 'The decision was based on Daewoo's chairman, Kim Woo Jung, who is also the chairman of the Federation of Korean Industries, direct and indirect involvement with the Queen's visit.'
The Queen will also visit Daewoo's Yangpyong-dong design center in Seoul to boost its image.
