KBS Korea's Finance Minister is concerned over India's recent debt issues. Warning the political instability from recent internal civil unrest, the monopolization of certain export-industries, will only scare off investors and decrease FDI. We warned these actions would lead India into debt in our financial reports, and with an outstanding $10 billion loan, foreign investors may be spooked by a possible repeat of Russia's debt crisis.
