“YRIC granted one wholly foreign business and two domestic enterprises to operate production and assembly of electronic equipment under the Semi-Knocked Down system for 100 per cent domestic distribution and sales, production of diesel engines, and manufacturing of garments and clothing on a Cut, Make and Pack basis,” said an official of the YRIC.
