Yoon Seok-yeol Appoints Former Lawmaker Na Kyung-won as 'Special Envoy to the Davos Forum'
[Asia Economy Reporter Seongpil Jo] Former lawmaker Na Kyung-won has been appointed as a special envoy to the World Economic Forum (WEF) Annual Meeting, the 'Davos Forum.'
The Presidential Transition Committee announced on the 6th that President-elect Yoon Seok-yeol has designated former lawmaker Na as a special envoy to the Davos Forum. Historically, many past presidents have personally attended the Davos Forum to explain the South Korean government's policies to global top leaders and private sector opinion leaders. However, since President-elect Yoon is newly appointed and has a schedule for the South Korea-U.S. summit on the 21st of the same month, it is difficult for him to attend the Davos Forum in person this year. Therefore, the transition committee explained that former lawmaker Na will be dispatched as a special envoy.
