Intel to spend $1B on Vietnam plant 6 minutes ago

HO CHI MINH CITY, Vietnam - Intel Corp., the world's largest computer chipmaker, announced Friday that it will more than triple its initial $300 million investment in Vietnam, dramatically expanding the size of a chip assembly and testing plant that it is constructing in the country's southern business hub.

The company plans to spend $1 billion on the plant and expand its size from 150,000 square feet to 500,000 square feet, a company official said Friday.

Construction is expected to be finished in 2007. It will be Vietnam's first semiconductor facility, and Intel's sixth testing facility in Asia.

>>Under questioning from the judge, some of the defendants acknowledged carrying radio equipment to Cambodia on behalf of the Government of Free Vietnam, while others described themselves as employees at an adoption agency.<<

This makes it sound like they didn't even enter Vietnam. I'm surprised the South Koireans would arrest them and that the U.S. would not protest, if they in fact never entered Vietnam.

Its not normal American outlook to treat beaming anti-communist speech from across the border as terrorism. By that logic Al Jazeera broadcasters shoud be arrested...and not a few people at the BBC.
