Korea, Egypt Discuss Ways to Strengthen Cooperation in Investment & Trade
By Ahmad El-Assasy On August 19, Ambassador of the Republic of Korea to Egypt Kim Yonghyon met with H.E. Hassan El-Khatib, Minister of Investment and Foreign Trade of Egypt, to discuss measures to expand bilateral cooperation in investment and trade. Ambassador Kim applauded the Egyptian government's strong efforts to stabilize the macroeconomy, enhance export competitiveness, and improve the investment climate, noting that these developments are sending a positive signal to international investors. He highlighted Egypt's young and talented workforce, strategic geographic location, and access to regional markets as key advantages, emphasizing its potential to become a leading manufacturing and export hub in the Middle East and Africa. Ambassador Kim stressed that Korea's strengths in manufacturing and advanced technology can contribute to strengthening Egypt's industrial competitiveness and diversifying its economy.

He expressed hope that such collaboration would develop into a mutually beneficial partnership that promotes growth and prosperity for both nations.
