Wang Xinwei, Deputy Secretary General of the CPC Liaoning Provincial Committee and Governor of Liaoning Province, stated that Liaoning and South Korea are close neighbors separated only by a narrow strip of water. Over the years, their friendly exchanges and economic cooperation have yielded fruitful results, with South Korea now being Liaoning's second largest trading partner and third largest source of foreign investment. Governor Wang described Liaoning as an industrial powerhouse undergoing transformation, a hub of innovation forging new paths, a forefront of opening up towards the East, and a cultural haven with profound heritage. He expressed Liaoning's eagerness to work with all sectors of South Korea to jointly foster new momentum for industrial development, share new achievements in scientific and technological innovation, explore new spaces for open cooperation, and write a new chapter in people-to-people and cultural exchanges.
