South Korean President to visit Egypt in March
PM Madbouly, Minister Yoo prepare for presidential visit
Published in Daily News Egypt on 25 - 02 - 2020

Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly, on Monday, met South Korean Minister of Trade Yoo Myung-hee to discuss preparation procedures for South Korean President Moon Jae-in's planned visit to Egypt in March.
Both sides also touched on arrangements of the Egyptian-South Korean business forum that will be organised on the sidelines of the presidential visit, the Cabinet said in a statement on Monday.
Yoo's visit in Egypt also included meeting her Egyptian counterpart, Nevine Gamea, to discuss the mechanisms of strengthening cooperation and boosting trade exchange.
Egypt is South Korea's largest export market in Africa, yet the trade volume does not match the potential of the two countries, South Korean ambassador to Cairo Yeocheol Yoon told Daily News Egypt on Monday, adding that the average trade volume between the two countries during the last five years is $1.9bn, while peak of trade was $3bn in 2014.
South Korea and Egypt will take their relationship to a higher level in 2020, marking the 25th anniversary of establishing diplomatic relations between the two countries, Yoon said on 10 October 2019 during the embassy's celebration for the South Korean National Foundation Day.
Egypt received last October a South Korean business delegation with the full spectrum of major Korean companies, where they met with President Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi and clearly showed their interest in working with Egyptian partners, and to help them turn Egypt's massive potential into something tangible by sharing a common strategy for their cooperation in key areas.
A high-level delegation from the Export–Import Bank of South Korea (Korea Eximbank) discussed with the Egyptian government funding new projects in the local market during their visit to Egypt back in 27 to 30 January 2020.
Notably, Al-Sisi made a historic visit to South Korea in March 2016, when both sides adopted the Comprehensive Cooperative Partnership which serves as a platform for bilateral cooperation in many areas.
