KOTRA Donates Korean Language Learning Program to Indonesia

Hangul Day, 50th Anniversary of Korea-Indonesia Diplomatic Relations
Collaboration with Educational Software Developer 'Semware'

KOTRA announced on the 10th that it donated online education programs and learning content for the Test of Proficiency in Korean (TOPIK) to major national and public universities in Indonesia and Korean language schools in remote areas to commemorate Hangul Day and the 50th anniversary of Korea-Indonesia diplomatic relations.

This project is part of the 'KOTRA Global ESG+ Project,' which discovers ESG demands from partner country governments and promotes necessary ESG activities locally, such as donating goods and technical training, thereby creating a favorable overseas market entry foundation for Korean companies.

KOTRA is carrying out this project in collaboration with Semware Co., Ltd., an educational software developer.

KOTRA plans to create an environment where Indonesian youth can learn Korean independently, providing a foundation for them to pursue careers related to Korea. Additionally, it aims to resolve difficulties faced by Korean companies operating in Indonesia due to a shortage of local talent proficient in Korean, and to help achieve the Indonesian government's sustainable development goals of 'providing quality education and creating jobs.'

Kim Junsung, head of the KOTRA Surabaya Trade Center, said, "KOTRA will further strengthen collaboration with domestic and international governments, related organizations, and the private sector to actively support our export companies in leveraging new business opportunities arising from ESG management."
