“The reason behind this move is because the local government is
looking to give their local smartphone makers ‘competitiveness’
against foreign platforms i.e. iOS, Android and Windows Phone 7 to
name a few. Given that the Samsung Galaxy S II is considered to be
THE smartphone at the moment, we don’t really see why the big
hitters would require any more help, although perhaps smaller
brands that don’t make it out of Korea would gladly welcome the
help.”
