The Mekong-ROK Cooperation Fund envisions catalyzing regional progress in response to the 4th Industrial Revolution. Advocating for collaborative ICT-driven projects, the plan aims to foster innovation and propel the digital economy forward. Emphasizing the application of emerging technologies to production, consumption, and distribution systems, the MKCF encourages the development of digital connectivity and infrastructure throughout the Mekong region.
The plan also outlines joint efforts to plan and establish smart cities, fostering a network of intelligent urban centers. Furthermore, the MKCF underscores the importance of enhancing science and ICT competitiveness through knowledge-sharing programs, expert exchanges, and training initiatives.
Build capacities in regional ICT project management, driving the region towards a future powered by technology.
Collaborate on critical ICT infrastructure development in rural areas, connecting fields and minds for agricultural advancement.
