Seoul, Korea - Republic of
SOUTH KOREAN LABORERS HOLD A RALLY IN SEOUL.
Workers from South Korea's state-run power monopoly Korea Electric Power Corp (KEPCO) hold a protest rally against the company's restructuring plan infront of the headquarters of the KEPCO in Seoul November 19. KEPCO said the company's 42 thermoelectric and water-power generators would be split into five subsidiaries and the nuclear-power generators would be handed over to another independent affiliate. The split-off is part of the government's privatisation programme, in which KEPCO's five thermoelectric and water-power generator subsidiaries are to be sold off by 2002.
