[Asia Economy Reporter Kangwook Cho] Bang Moon-kyu, President of the Export-Import Bank of Korea, participated in the 'Flower Bucket Challenge' on the 24th to help domestic flower farmers suffering from poor sales due to the impact of the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19).

Earlier, Lee Mi-kyung, President of the Korea International Cooperation Agency, nominated President Bang as the next participant in the 'Flower Bucket Challenge' on the 21st and personally visited the bank's Yeouido headquarters to deliver a flower basket.

President Bang then nominated Kwon Pyung-oh, President of the Korea Trade-Investment Promotion Agency (KOTRA), and Ahn Hyun-ho, President of Korea Aerospace Industries (KAI), as the next participants. He first visited KOTRA located in Seocho-gu, Seoul, and delivered an iris flower basket to President Kwon.

At the event, President Bang said, "The iris flower has a beautiful meaning of 'good news seen like a rainbow after the rain,'" adding, "I hope good news will be delivered soon to our flower farmers who are struggling with their livelihoods due to the spread of COVID-19."

In response, President Kwon said, "As our economy is facing difficulties due to COVID-19, this is a time when a sense of community solidarity is needed more than ever," and added, "We will strengthen our existing cooperation with the Export-Import Bank of Korea to further promote export activation and expand overseas advancement."

Meanwhile, the Flower Bucket Challenge campaign is conducted in a relay format where participants purchase flowers and nominate the next participant to help flower farmers suffering from poor sales due to the cancellation of graduations and entrance ceremonies.
