Belarus has an interest in developing a national paperless trade system in cooperation with the Korea Trade Network company (KTNET), Belarus Deputy Prime Minister Vladimir Semashko said as he met with KTNET Director General Jin-Hyun Han on 9 June, BelTA has learned.

According to Vladimir Semashko, promotion of relations with Seoul is of great importance for Belarus. The Republic of Korea is ranked 1st in the global ICT Development Index. “ICT development is one of Belarus' major goals. We hope that South Korean partners will help Belarus' e-government and paperless trade system emerge,” the deputy prime minister remarked. The South Korean side has already explored current Belarus' potential for establishing a national paperless trade system and nearly accomplished a feasibility study of the project.

KTNET and the Belarusian side have co-opened a Belarus-South Korea center for IT cooperation and co-organized the first Belarusian-South Korean forum on e-government. Cooperation in this field was high on the agenda of the Belarusian economic and investment forum held in Seoul on 15 May 2017, too. “I believe that your current visit to Minsk will help accelerate the implementation of our joint project on establishing a paperless trade system in Belarus,” the politician added.

For his part, Jin-Hyun Han pointed out that the Belarusian economic and investment forum in Seoul had received positive feedback from representatives of South Korean companies. According to him, bilateral ties and mutual visits will have a significant positive impact on Belarus-South Korea relations.

A delegation of the KTNET company, the developer and operator of South Korea's national paperless trade system, is in Belarus on a visit on 8-9 June. The delegation is set to meet with top executives of Belarus' Communications and Informatization Ministry and also speak about financial management information systems and e-procurement at the Belarusian Finance Ministry.
