Korean Government seeking investment in Guyana – New Korean Ambassador

 

Georgetown :  Newly accredited Ambassador of the Republic of Korea to Guyana Kim Joo-teck who presented his letters of Credence to President Jagdeo today at the Office of the President said   Guyana has attracted the interest of the Republic of Korea at the level of the government and business community owing to the negotiations which President Bharrat Jagdeo initiated during his visit in 2010.
Ambassador Kim, a HarvardCambridge and Massachusetts University graduate is hoping to further tout the encouraging level of relations between the two countries during his tenure in Guyana, citing cooperation projects in Information Communication Technology (ICT) and agriculture.  

 “These areas are of personal interest to President Jagdeo…. Many countries around the world including some Latin American and Caribbean countries are working to establish… e-government infrastructure with the support of the Korean Government so these days modern countries and societies may need to improve better infrastructure for ICT… to be well connected with the rest of the world,” Ambassador Kim explained.
