A delegation from South Korea's Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport traveled to Vietnam on Tuesday, November 25, 2025, to seek cooperation opportunities for South Korean firms in the Southeast Asian nation's urban railway sector. The four-day trip involves meetings with senior transport officials and industry representatives, including Nguyen Tuong Van, Vietnam's vice minister of construction.
On Thursday, the delegation will host the Korea-Vietnam Urban Railway Cooperation Forum in Hanoi, attended by around 100 metro officials and industry representatives from Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, and Da Nang. South Korean rail organizations, such as Korea Railroad Corp. and Seoul Metro Corp., will present proposals on technology cooperation, training programs, and project implementations.
This visit aims to leverage South Korea's expertise in urban rail systems to support Vietnam's infrastructure growth, potentially opening new avenues for bilateral partnerships in transportation.
