Jung thanked the Vietnamese Government, ministries and Hanoi city for their support of the Starlake urban area project, which is currently attracting significant secondary investment from major Korean and international players.

He also requested continued assistance from Vietnamese authorities for another modern and livable urban area project planned for the northern province of Thai Binh.

Informing the host that the RoK Minister of Land, Infrastructure and Transport will visit Vietnam next week to promote housing development cooperation, he affirmed that more Korean companies will be coming to Vietnam to explore opportunities and invest in specific projects.
