Guwahati: South Korean Ambassador to India Cho Hyun on Thursday invited cooperation and called for exchange of programmes between the youths of the Northeast and his country. At an event organised by industry chamber ICC, the Ambassador called for greater interaction between the youths of South Korea and the northeast region by having more student exchange programmes in coming days.
“While there are many similarities between the societies of Assam and Korea, there exist large gaps in both trade and commerce as well as people to people contact,” said Hyun. “Improvement in connectivity would result in the flow of more tourists from Korea to this region, which would help not just the local economy but also invite Korean business to invest here,” he said.
He expressed confidence in growth of the relation of S Korea and the Northeast (PTI)
