The municipal leader suggested that the localities organise a HCM City cultural, trade and tourism day in Gyeongsangbuk in 2024, while establishing twinning relations among universities in the two localities, holding exchanges for students of the two sides, and coordinating in human resources training and training skilled workers for the RoK.

Her province is in need of high-quality human resources for local industrial parks, especially in the fields of electronic components and steel manufacturing, she said, underlining that the locality hopes to strengthen labour collaboration with HCM City.
Gyeongsangbuk is willing to work with HCM City in organising exchange programmes for young intellectuals of the two sides, and bringing second-generation Vietnamese children born in the RoK to HCM City for study, she said./.
