What’s more, Amtran has also secured a contract order from LG for 2 million LCD TVs to LG, which will be delivered this year. To achieve annual shipments of 7 million LCD TVs and 5 million LCD monitors, as well as combined revenue of NT$10 billion in 2011, the firm has focused on emerging markets, including India, Russia and China, and planned to promote high-end LED-backlit LCD TVs, 3D TVs and smart TVs to explore new markets.
