He also received a briefing on the firm's order intake and conditions in the global shipbuilding market, vice presidential spokesperson Ahn Gwi-ryeong said. The president praised the dedication and expertise of shipbuilding workers, attributing to them "the world's highest-level competitiveness" of the country's shipbuilding industry.
