(VOV) -The Republic of Korea (RoK) on March 13 announced that it will provide marine technologies to developing Southeast Asian countries including Vietnam, to assist in the prevention of maritime accidents.
- Made-in-Vietnam submarine tested
- First submarine on the way to Vietnam
- First Kilo class submarine to arrive in November
The same day, Yonhap News Agency quoted an official from the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries as saying that a group of 16 government officials from Cambodia, East Timor, the Philippines, and Vietnam will fly to the RoK next week for a month-long training programme in marine research.
These technologies are designed to help prevent marine accidents that are all to frequent in developing countries due to their lack of ocean maps, it said.
The training is part of the RoK Government’s ongoing support for developing countries.
Annually, the RoK organizes nine similar training courses, with lectures focusing on such topics as earthquake-induced tsunamis and rip-currents, as well as ways to minimize damages from such catastrophic events.
