“It is a process that will take place little by little but will definitely help the countries of the Pan-American area in their relationship with Kukkiwon.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Strengthening<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the central themes of the meeting was to strengthen the relationship of the Pan American area countries with Kukkiwon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The intention is that this relationship is respected, that each of the countries with Kukkiwon increases and that PATU is the intermediary entity so that this relationship grows strong and solid in the next three or four years.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this sense, the Kukkiwon Electoral Commission delivered the Certificate of Election to the newly elected President, GM Lee Dong-sup at 11 am this Friday, October 7 at the Kukkiwon Central Gymnasium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
