In ST Electronics, Globalization is a key growth strategy. It delivers sustainable growth by penetrating into new markets around the world through partnership and acquisitions to reduce negative impact on operation (Singapore Technologies Electronics Ltd 2006). In Korea nationalized industries, government policy makers’ interference and consideration resulted in poor communication and insufficient defined objectives and goals (Song 1986). Tight controlled regulation by government directives resulted in overhampering efficient operation with commercial prudence (Lee 1997).

This is obtained through responsibility to one another to succeed and thrive in order to give world-class services (Singapore Technologies Electronics Ltd 2006). In Korea nationalized industries, distrusts, delay in decision making, pressure from political groups and unions, poor communication at all level and personality clashes led to the erosion of the values system. This undermines the social fabrication of the organization (Kim & Rowley 2001, p. 137).

Prudent government policy enables long-run prospect for effective use of new technology. The success of research and educational institutions also assist to create a favourable environment for successful application of new technology (Mckevitt 1994).
