South Korea ambassador shares his ‘to do list’

Lee Chi-beom, Ambassador of South Korea to Malaysia: The South Korean side is of the opinion that the elevation of its bilateral relations with Malaysia is crucial for the establishment of a deeper and more diverse cooperative partnership. Malaysia is a core partner of South Korea’s new southern policy.

IT has been just over a year since Lee Chi-beom took up his posting as South Korea’s Ambassador to Malaysia.

Despite the slowdown in activities caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, the envoy has been trying to break new ground especially with both countries marking their 60th anniversary of diplomatic relations this year.
