LYON, France, March 16 (AFP) – The posh French ski resort of Courchevel has reserved three slopes for the exclusive use of Samsung Group chairman Lee Kun-Hee during his three-week stay, officials said Wednesday.
“Lee Kun-Hee is coming for a Samsung seminar. He’s learning how to ski and is very worried about his safety,” Claude Faure, director of the Societe des Trois Vallees, which manages the slopes at Courchevel, told AFP.
Faure said the chairman of South Korea’s largest conglomerate would have exclusive access from Thursday to three slopes, protected by security nets, for two hours a day between noon and 3:00 pm.

No wonder the French are so messed up. Only they will give a guy TWO hours a day on the slopes from noon to 3p.m……
For a big corporate guy you’d think he’d do the math….
Safety? Nahhhhh. I bet it’s embarrassment.
don’t forget that he worked to get where he is so, he earned it. just like we earn our things. he probably thinks that having a ipod is a waste.
