Overview

The Mekong-ROK Cooperation Fund is committed to advancing agricultural and rural development in the Mekong region, focusing on improving the lives of local communities and narrowing development gaps. The framework emphasizes collaborative efforts and dialogues based on a bilateral Memorandum of Understanding on agricultural cooperation between Mekong countries and the Republic of Korea.

Additionally, the plan addresses regional food security and safety, stabilizing the food supply, and promoting trade and investment in the Mekong's agricultural sector. The initiative also seeks to enhance information exchange on agricultural product demand and supply, fostering cooperation in developing high-tech agriculture and supply chains among Mekong countries and the ROK.
