S. Korea, Japan, China CEOs call for enhanced economic cooperation: survey


A recent survey conducted by the Korea Chamber of Commerce and Industry revealed unanimous agreement among major business leaders in South Korea, Japan, and China on the importance of strengthening economic ties. The survey, which gathered responses from 136 business leaders at a trilateral business summit in Seoul, highlighted a strong shared interest in economic cooperation. Specifically, 82.4 percent of participants deemed it "definitely necessary," with the remaining considering it "necessary to some extent." The survey also indicated a high level of support for the anticipated positive impact of multinational cooperation, with 65.4 percent of respondents strongly agreeing on its benefits. In terms of priorities for cooperation, the survey found that Korean CEOs favored "economic revitalization," while Japanese CEOs showed a preference for responding to climate change. Chinese CEOs, on the other hand, emphasized "supply chain stability" and "medical cooperation." The survey results led to the issuance of a joint statement during the summit, in which the co-hosts expressed their commitment to boosting economic cooperation and establishing a three-way private sector consultative body. The Korea Chamber of Commerce and Industry also announced plans to create a consultative body and develop joint research projects to address the priority tasks and anticipated effects identified in the survey.
