I was fascinated by the endless hard-working nature of the Korean people, their devotion to ideas, and their desire to raise the country's power to even greater heights. We will be very happy to invite your specialists to our Center for training. They will be our guests. Last year, about a thousand people from other countries were trained in our center, so we have something to show and teach".
