Seoul to spend US$3 mil. to run joint liaison office with N. Korea

남북교류협력추진위원회, 공동연락사무소 운영에 34억 지원 의결

Seoul is covering the cost of running the inter-Korean joint liaison office.
The total cost of just over 3 million U.S. dollars is to come from South Korea's Inter-Korean Cooperation Fund.
Renovations have been underway at the inter-Korean Kaesong Industrial Complex since early July... with the aim of opening the joint liaison office within this month.
The office should enable person-to-person contact between officials from Seoul and Pyongyang.
