Its construction business comprises the provision of civil, architectural, housing, plant, and environmental works; supply of construction materials, such as remicon, compounds, and pile concrete; and manufacture and distribution of remicon and aggregates.[1]
History
[edit]Halla Group was founded as Hyundai International, Inc. in 1962.[2] The Halla name was first used in 1978 as the name of a cement company.[3] The name Halla is taken from Mount Halla, a mountain on Jeju Island.
Halla collapsed in 1997 during the 1997 Asian Financial Crisis.[4]
In 2008 Halla repurchased Mando, a car company they sold during the financial crisis.[3] The chaebol also sponsors multiple hockey teams, mainly Anyang Halla in the Asia League Ice Hockey and Kiekko-Vantaa in the Finnish Mestis.

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
