The centerpiece of this support package is the establishment of a financial support program worth 17 trillion won dedicated to infrastructure investment at the State Development Bank of Korea, the report said.
The South Korean government plans to extend tax breaks set to expire at the end of the year to facilitate large-scale investment, as a semiconductor cluster project is currently underway in Gyeonggi Province.
A 1 trillion chip industry profit fund will be created to help chip and fab material manufacturing companies, and research and development infrastructure for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) will be built.
