Ssangyong Motor Co (003620.KS) is a South Korea-based maker of sport utility vehicles. Ssangyong, majority owned by China's SAIC Motor Corp (600104.SS), secured protection under court receivership in February.
The company said in a statement that production remained suspended in June due to the labour union's strikes against restructuring plans, leading to weak sales. (Reporting by Shin Jieun in Seoul; Editing by Ken Wills)
