The leaders of Korea and Brunei have agreed to take their partnership to another level,... signing a deal on Monday after their bilateral summit in Brunei's capital.
From construction to patents,... their promise of bilateral cooperation is seen as a move that will help build the president's New Southern Policy.
Shin Se-min reports from Brunei.
Different methods,... but a similar purpose.
President Moon Jae-in and the Sultan of Brunei, Hassanal Bolkiah, have promised to step up substantive bilateral cooperation and achieve synergy in the pursuit of their countries' respective policies -- Korea's New Southern Policy and Brunei's Vision 2035.
Acknowledging that both policies focus on improving people's lives,... the leaders Moon and Bolkiah agreed to come up with measures that are reciprocal and complementary.
"By integrating our administration's New Southern Policy, focused on creating a community of people-centered peace and prosperity, with Brunei's Vision 2035, I hope to expand our bilateral ties into future technology and new fields of industry and to achieve mutual prosperity."
Korea's New Southern Policy aims to diversify its diplomacy, adding to its traditional trade partners, the U.S. and China.
And Brunei's Vision 2035 hopes to drive up foreign investment and contribute towards the country's long-term economic growth and social development.
On economic cooperation,... the leaders decided to do more in the infrastructure and energy sectors.
That includes building a value chain in liquified natural gas... spanning from gas mine development... to shipping and sales.
The leaders agreed to promote bilateral cooperation in areas of intellectual property, science and technology,… and to expand their joint search for new growth engines.
On a more social level,… the leaders have agreed to add more direct flights to boost people-to-people exchanges.
And the leader of Brunei says the timing could not be better.
"Not only are we marking 35 years of diplomatic ties, in terms of Korea-ASEAN relations, Brunei is the coordinator between the two parties."
With Brunei to help with the hosting of a special South Korea-ASEAN summit in Seoul this year,... something that will help establish future relations between the two sides,... the leaders agreed to consult closely going forward.
Speaking on the president's push for peace on the Korean Peninsula,... the South Korean leader stressed the importance of all 10 ASEAN member nations in helping North Korea give up its nuclear ambitions,... through their own diplomatic relations with Pyeongyang.
And the Sultan of Brunei, a window for dialogue between Korea and ASEAN did express his support in establishing permanent peace on the Korean Peninsula.
