Some firms already active in Asia through joint ventures are buying out their cash-strapped local partners, thus positioning themselves to reap all the profits from a future upturn. In South Korea, Coca-Cola has taken over the bottling and distribution businesses of three former partners--Doosan Beverage, Woo Sung Food and Honam Food--and it is no secret that Coors is negotiating to take full control of Jinro Coors Beer.

...increased audience enjoyment, this need for enunciation is vital to any production of Gilbert and Sullivan: the story of the operetta, in true G. and S. style, is a convoluted tale of mistaken identities and star-crossed lovers that can only be understood when it is clearly and resoundingly sung by its main players.

The outcome, the defiant coronation of Poppea and the happy banishment of Otto and his new girl (Drusilla, ably sung by Genithia Hogges `01), is supposed to be a testament to the power of love as represented by choir boy Amor, but it never really loses the saucy-sin feel that Quilici and D'Amelia develop in the first act. Furthermore, Drusilla and Otto's relationship blooms very suddenly...
