RoK to help Vietnam recover from wartime bombs

Vietnam wants the Republic of Korea (RoK) to assist in easing the post-war aftermath of bombs and mines, Deputy Defence Minister Sen. Lieut. Gen. Nguyen Chi Vinh told chief representative of the Korea International Co-operation Agency (KOICA) Chang Jae-jun in Hanoi.

Vinh said he is pleased with the progress of Vietnam–RoK co-operation, especially in defence.

The guest assured Vinh that the RoK leaders are always willing to help Vietnam deal with the after-effects of bombs and mines left from the wartime.
To start, the RoK will conduct a fact-finding trip to Vietnamese localities contaminated with unexploded ordnance, and devise a policy to offer official development assistance to Vietnam, Chang said.
