Korean Embassy in Cairo hosts 'Be a Korean Ambassador for a day' event
Published in Daily News Egypt on 29 - 06 - 2022

The Embassy of the Republic of South Korea in Cairo hosted an event titled 'Be a Korean Ambassador for a day!' on its grounds on June 28. inviting special guests from the Egyptian education sector.
The event is part of a public diplomacy programme that aims to reach out to Egyptian people and listen to their creative and insightful thoughts and ideas on developing the two countries' bilateral relations in various fields, such as education, people-to-people exchanges, economy, cultural exchanges, environment, climate change, women's empowerment, etc.
Zeinab Kamal, who is not only a science teacher with huge commitment and dedication to her students but also an enthusiastic fan of Korean culture, was selected as the first Korean Ambassador for a day among around 170 candidates.
The appointee, who was invited to the embassy along with three of her students, delivered a presentation to the Embassy's members — including Ambassador Hong Jin-wook — on the impact of education on society, where she explored ways to enhance the two countries' cooperation in the field of education.
Hong then congratulated Kamal on her appointment and mentioned that education was a very timely topic to discuss today with the first Korean Ambassador for a day, considering its important role of building individual capabilities and fostering globalised human resources.
He also touched upon the experience of Korea and how its socio-economic and political development was by virtue of the developed Korean education system itself and the fact that Korean teachers, parents, and students put a very high value to education.
Hong added that considering the importance of education in Egypt, the educational and cultural cooperation between the two countries would be beneficial not only for the development of the Egyptian education system but also for the mutual understanding of both countries' peoples.
He also mentioned that the embassy would host this event in the near future again with the participation of many other Egyptians from different fields.
The event was then followed by a friendly lunch boasting several Korean dishes to present Korean culture.
