(FRCCI), effective immediately, for failing to meet their financial and contractual obligations to the state-owned firm.
The order directs FDC and FRCCI to immediately stop all operations, indefinitely, within their leased area, including the 52-hectare property currently managed by Korea Country Club, Inc. (KCCI), pending compliance to their contractual obligations.
