The president's focus for the last stop of his trip,… is again expanding multilateral cooperation in Southeast Asia on the financial and infrastructure front.
In his compact three-day schedule for his stay in Cambodia,... the president will meet Prime Minister Hun Sen and discuss business in agriculture, infrastructure, construction and finance among many other fields.
The presidential office explains that firming up ties with Cambodia is crucial,... and the two countries had a trade volume of 975-million U.S. dollars as of last year.
"Through manufacturing, scientific technology and ICT,… cooperation between Korea and Cambodia, exchanging their abilities, will be a reality."
The leaders will also attend a bilateral business forum-- with the theme of recreating the "miracle on the Han River on the Mekong," where President Moon will also deliver a keynote speech.
Korea's leading businesses including Samsung Electronics, Hyundai Motor and Hanwha Q-Cells are also at the forum,... with the leaders of both countries present to buttress future business deals.
"A constructive step in the president's pivot to Southeast Asia,... the South Korean leader is hoping his stops in the region will lay the groundwork for what could be a new business paradigm for his country, heavily dependent on trade.
