SEOUL, May 14 (Reuters) – A threatened strike by Samsung Electronics’ union would be a significant risk to South Korea’s economic growth, exports and markets, Finance Minister Koo Yun-cheol said on Thursday.
The chipmaking giant and its union failed to reach a pay deal on Wednesday, while the unionised workers plan to strike for 18 days starting May 21.
