SEOUL — South Korea, a regional technology powerhouse, wants to partner South-east Asia as the region embraces the latest innovations in fields ranging from artificial intelligence (AI) to clean energy. Another challenge facing ASEAN is the “economic and social impacts of climate change”, said the South Korean leader. About 6,000 South Korean businesses have a presence in ASEAN, representing nearly half of all South Korean enterprises in overseas markets. South Korea has been rocked by a series of deepfake porn crimes, with most of the perpetrators being teenage boys. Establishing a green economy is key to sustainable development, as is addressing low birth rates, which Yoon said are common goals shared by South Korea and Singapore.
