The Ambassadors Series - Ep 14 - Ambassador of South Korea to Greece Ju-seong Lim

Описание: The “Ambassadors Series of ”ΤΟ ΒΗΜΑ International Edition” publishes its 14th installment. In this episode, the South Korean Ambassador to Greece,
Ju-seong Lim, invited us to the ambassadorial residence where he highlighted the deep respect and cultural connections between the two nations.

The ambassador recounted a humorous incident when he first arrived in Greece that underscored some very different ways. He recalls being invited to eat dinner after 10 at night, a habit, he admits, shocked him. But since then, he quips he has “adjusted” to the Greek hours.

Mr. Ju-seong Lim talked about the serious issue of low birth rates and an aging population, a problem impacting both countries. Noting that while it is a complex issue, he believes it can be addressed in a holistic way. He recognizes that migration is a very sensitive political matter, but it is linked to the wider aging population problem and possible solution.

The ambassador spoke about an initiative he calls “trilateral triangle” referring to the opportunity to expand and boost trade opportunities by leveraging US capital, Korean know-how and the Greek market to build more ships in Greece.
