Between South Korea — if you think about it — and China, it’s got tremendous potential. And I think he understands that and he wants to do what’s right.

And we’ll see what happens. We’ll see what the report says. But I guess it just got announced that it’s coming out on June 14th, so that’ll be maybe a nice birthday present. Who knows.
