The Vietnam Veterans’ Association of Korea (VVAK) met with authorities of Quang Nam province in Tam Ky city on October 20 to discuss the building of a Korean cultural centre in the central locality.
Speaking at the meeting, VVAK President Woo Yong-rak said the association wishes to build a Korean cultural centre in Quang Nam as a way to help heal the wounds of war and strengthen the ties between Vietnam and the Republic of Korea (RoK).
The initiative has received strong support from the Vietnam Veterans’ Association, he said, adding that the RoK National Assembly has approved 3 million USD for the project, which is scheduled to start next year.
The centre is expected to become operational by 2018.
Vice Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Nguyen Chin vowed his support for the project, saying that the province will create optimal conditions to keep it on schedule.
The VVAK is now home to approximately 300,000 Korean veterans who served during the Vietnam war and about 2 million of their relatives.
