Dr. Alan Miller, president of Xeno Holdings Limited noted that the company views the South Korean market as the perfect pathway to further venture into the Asian market. “The Asian market, particularly South Korea, has become significantly important and we have adjusted our involvement and portfolio weighting of it.
