Great stuff, China has enough competent educated willing to work engineers, few if any restrictions and all things that makes investing favorable.
Great move Samsung and with the Chinese's booming "space race" they would need at least 30%+ of what Samsung can manufacture in China. "China the greyhound bus service of space travel".

Time to buy more Samsung stock. $$$$$$$ :toast:
