China now a rival rather than boon for South Korean exporters, warns minister : Seoul says tech and manufacturing sectors must adapt to rising competition
ft.com/content/49a7a751-febe-4db1-9d24-a5b99eb694dc
Quick Glance: South Korean Exporters Warn of China as Rival
- South Korea's economy needs to urgently adapt to the increasing competition from China, as the country's biggest exporters battle for market share in sectors like chips, shipbuilding, and display panels, warns the finance minister.
- The growth of South Korea's economy slowed from 2.6 percent in 2022 to 1.4 percent last year, hindered by high interest rates, China's economic slowdown, and a decline in global demand for memory chips, the country's top export.
- The country's lowest fertility rate in the world and high household debt levels as a proportion of GDP are also causing concerns for officials.
- The government recently indicated it would reverse a cut in the R&D budget for 2024 to reform the country's research and development efforts and enhance economic competitiveness.

Quick Glance: Israeli Strike Damages Iranian Air Defense System Without Detection, Officials Say
- An Israeli airstrike on Iran on Friday damaged an air defense system, according to Western and Iranian officials, and appeared calculated to deliver a message that Israel could bypass Iran’s defensive systems undetected and paralyze them.
- The strike damaged a defensive battery near Natanz, a city in central Iran that is critical to the country’s nuclear weapons program, according to the officials.
- The relatively limited scope of Israel’s strike and the muted response from Iranian officials, however, seem to have eased tensions.
- It was confirmed that Israel had deployed aerial drones and at least one missile fired from a warplane, as stated by three Western and two Iranian officials.
