Talk:Daewoo

message: Sorry but the corporations section of this article, to me at least, looks almost like an advertisment for the company, it needs changing and probably updating. Someone who knows more about Daewoo should do this though, all I noticed was POV

message: This article needs to be changed. Daewoo has been split up into different companies, so this article needs to reflect Daewoo Motors` buyout by GM. --Ce garcon 12:53, 15 Nov 2004 (UTC)
thread_title:  Is this article about GM-Daewoo Motors? 

message: I agree with this guy. And besides... The DAEWOO guy took all his money and fled to europe. It was aired on the korean news years ago! Whoever says the GOVERNMENT took part in this is absurd. It was the Founder's fault and his alone. Why else would he take all his money and leave korea for good? because of his greed.
You forgot a signature.  No big deal.  Anyway, even though this might be dead obvious, Wikipedia's not a collection of opinions.  It's a non-biased collection of verifiable information.  So if we want to dig up dirt, we have to find some sort of factual documentation to source.

thread_title:  couldn't agree more...

message: There's a stub article, Daewoo Motor Sales - I don't know if it's separate from Daewoo Motors, or if it should be merged here. Just letting you all know. -Singkong2005 08:16, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Daewoo Motor Sales 

message: I changed most of the descriptions to be more neutral; for example, I changed "excelling in creating" to "which created". I made the descriptions past tense; if I'm wrong, please correct it.
I don't know Daewoo, only English.

thread_title:  I've edited the Corporations section. 

message: From 1985-89 I worked for the Electronics Group at Daewoo. The article as posted is too kind to the company and it's founder. He did loot the company as others have said, and wrecked a lot of careers here in the US.
Aside from the preferential treatment Daewoo received from the government; they had a business model that kept them in the black while their American subsidiaries were being drained of cash. 
When I would forecast how many units of a particular product would sell in a given quarter, Daewoo would keep kicking the forecasts back until I set the level at the amount of money they felt they needed. As soon as the products left the harbor in Korea; Daewoo would get paid by the government. At that point, I usually had 60 days to move the inflated orders through the different sales channels before doing another bogus forecast.
Daewoo did not care how the products were sold or even if they functioned properly. Once they had been paid it was our problem. We had to warehouse excess inventory, repair poor quality equipment and deal with the law suits on our dime. Even though we were part of Daewoo Electronics, their concerns ended at the shoreline. It was our responsibility to pay the Korean government for the goods and deal with any problems within the US.
Eventually, you couldn't give away a product with Daewoo involvement and most of my Division took what ever jobs that were available elsewhere. After I left, I couldn't help but laugh at the failure of the company. All the time that they were robbing their American divisions, they were in turn being cheated out of billions by their management

replies: text: This "note" is sort of laughable on the discussion page of an article that is as POV as this one and actually includes a series of anecdotes about the company's founder that read like they were churned out by his PR team.24.47.154.230 (talk) 05:23, 29 March 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Used to work there 

message: Hi all, I'm just wondering why
# there are no photos or pictures
# it's incoherent
# there seems to be a lot of vandalism (who has something against Daewoo anyway?)
# there are lots of odd templates; why not add those bloody sources if there's a kiloton of text?
Just take a look at the German and Spanish versions...

thread_title:  Why is this article so ugly? 

message: Hello! As I did for the GM Daewoo page, I will try to update the Daewoo Group page too. If you have any idea or suggestion... Feel free to post it here, as usual! Cheers Daewooarca (talk) 19:54, 22 November 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  2009 Update 

message: I was confused reading this article. It talks about Kim Woojoong and his socialite wife Heeja before I can even identify who they are. Later on in the history section it explains who these people actually are. It makes sense to move 'history' above Corporations.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.253.74.168 (talk) 00:23, 30 December 2009 (UTC)

message: Can we add Daewoo's acquisition in one section?  For example, I found the information that the Daewoo management took over Saehan Motors on June 1978, but the marquee remains until January 1983 when Daewoo took over entirely.  More information can be found at 기업연혁: 새한동차 (Daewoo Bus Company History: Saehan Motors) and 기업연혁: 대우자동차 (Daewoo Bus Company History: Daewoo Motors).  More information can be found at Saehan Motors.
