Tech giant Samsung Electronics Co. issued an apology last Friday following the firm’s involvement in several national scandals that eventually led to the impeachment and eventual ouster of former South Korean president Park Geun-hye as well as the infamous recall of the company’s flagship smartphone, the Samsung Galaxy Note 7. In addition to the said apology, Samsung has also promised to improve its internal governance amid pressure from its investors. Samsung Vice Chairman Kwon Oh-hyun delivered the said apology during its annual shareholders’ meeting. Samsung heir Jay Lee was not present at the said meeting as he is currently facing several bribery and embezzlement charges.
