Hyundai Rotem is charged wth violating local subcontractor laws by adopting a turnkey approach for the entirety of a 23.3 billion won (US$20.1 million) subway screendoor construction project in Daegu City.
Hyundai Rotem, however, maintains that while there may have been clauses in its contract with suppliers that could be misconstrued, the charges are untrue.
