The Mekong-ROK Cooperation Fund underscores a strong commitment to fostering cultural exchange and tourism initiatives, with a central focus on creating a community that prioritizes its people.
The framework aims to strengthen mutual awareness and understanding between the people of the Mekong countries and the Republic of Korea (ROK). This involves expanding educational endeavors, promoting tourism, facilitating people-to-people exchanges, and bolstering collaboration in cultural and sports domains.
An additional priority is the concerted effort to preserve and restore cultural heritage, coupled with joint initiatives to promote sustainable tourism in the Mekong region. Special attention is given to niche tourism areas such as agritourism, culinary tourism, and smart tourism.
