The Korean delegation had paid a visit to the company’s West Palm Beach facility in Florida and Pratt & Whitney had paid for a rental van to fetch them there. The engine company deemed the move as a breach of its strict ethics laws.
Wow thats harsh, its not like they gave away any information or took any bribes
Wow that’s really harsh I agree Irish it’s not like bae in the 80’s bribing Saudi Arabian delegates
I don’t recall, we’re any of the PWC excutives found guilty of providing the Chinese with military engine build info a few years let go?
