Shareholder Gives Tonic to Company Employees

The unlikely trendsetter, Cha Kwang-mi, a homemaker raising two children, says, "The employees at listed companies are handling our money - if they fail, we fail."
Her initiative is gaining momentum, with about 70 stockholders contributing $1,500 to her cause so far.
Cha invested $100 to buy 20 stocks of Intz.com on the off-board market in March, and taking into consideration a series of stock splits and a bearish market, she is left with about $50.
Jung Kwang-su, chief of program development at Intz.com says, "I was deeply touched by her gesture."
