Director - General Message from the Director-General of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade of the Republic of Korea. On behalf of the Forum for East Asia and Latin America Cooperation, I welcome you to FEALAC Cyber Secretariat. This marks the 12th year of the organization since its inception. As a unique organization that connects East Asia and Latin America, it has provided many valuable opportunities to facilitate cooperation between the two continents. To further strengthen ties and facilitate communication, the Republic of Korea proposed in the Foreign Ministerial Meeting held in Tokyo on January 16-17, 2010, the establishment of a Cyber Secretariat, on which all member countries agreed unanimously. The purpose of the Cyber Secretariat is two-folds. First, it aims to create a space where member countries can actively and accurately exchange, review and update information regarding meetings, projects, postings, notifications and messages. Second, it strives to build a systematic database to show past achievements and to become a guideline for future endeavors. With that in mind, we have designated a full-time staff to oversee the operation. Members will be able to review past and ongoing projects and freely exchange views and information. The website demonstrates the contribution and commitment that member countries have demonstrated in past years. I believe that it serves as an important foundation to achieve our common goals and to provide solutions for pressing global issues such as climate change. I am confident that we are all eager to work on strengthening the organization and would like to thank all member countries for their continuous contribution in making FEALAC Cyber Secretariat an ongoing success. Yours, Director-General of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade of the Republic of Korea Jang, Keun-ho
