Higher capital expenditure from development in IC division in Korea.

Generally, capital expenditure for production equipment will follow the increase in sales, particularly in the IC division. However, there is a 6 to 12 month time lag due to the ordering lead time. Plant expansion will depend on the current building utilisation and lead time to construct new plant or expand in an existing plant.
