Samsung Electronics' application to set up a new NAND flash wafer plant in China reportedly has been approved by the South Korea government.

Samsung issued a statement in early December 2011, disclosing it had applied with the government to establish a semiconductor production line overseas. Samsung would also conduct discussions with the China government on the possibility of building a NAND flash wafer plant dedicated to producing products at 20nm and below. The Korean firm added it expected to kick off construction of the China plant in 2012, and commence the operation in 2013.
