More Lao nationals to work in S. Korea farming, fishery


VIENTIANE (Vientiane Times/Asia News Network): The government will send more Lao workers to South Korea to work in the agriculture and fishery sectors, hoping they will learn from the experience and benefit from the expertise of Korean farmers.

In line with this intention, the Ministry of Labour and Social Welfare and Gyeongsangnam-do province in the Republic of Korea last week signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on agricultural labour exchange.
