The European Chamber of Commerce in Korea (ECCK) would like to invite you to attend the ECCK Busan Information Session & Networking Night (Expert Panel Discussion on Global Issues Affecting the Korean Peninsula") scheduled for Friday, March 29, 2024, taking place at Salon (1F), Park Hyatt Busan. Professor Robert Kelly and US Consul Nolan Barkhouse will share their valuable insights and views on political and economical issues affecting Korea.
The past year has seen an alarming rise in insecurity and instability not only in northeast Asia, but around the world. The Russia-Ukraine war is now entering its third year, the attack on Israel by Hamas and the resulting invasion of Gaza by Israel has caused tensions in the Middle East to rise to an all-time high, and both China and North Korea are becoming increasingly boisterous. On top of all of that, the US is gearing up for an extremely important Presidential election, in which the outcome could have serious political and economic consequences. How has South Korea faired through all of this and what does the future look like for South Korea's economy with all of these political, security and economic issues? Join us to find out!
