Hyundai Rotem also won a similar deal, valued at 168 billion won, from Tunisia in 2007. With the latest deal, Hyundai Rotem said it will strengthen its presence in the African region. The South Korean firm has bagged deals from Senegal, Sudan and other African nations to provide a total of 1,336 train cars.
