Korail Conducts Invitational Training for Vietnam Railways
Korea Railroad Corporation (KORAIL) announced on the 27th that it has completed the second invitation training program for Vietnam Railway employees on "Vietnam Railway Safety Management (Track Sector) Capacity Building," following the session held last March.
This invitation training, conducted again after March, is part of an ODA (Official Development Assistance) project supporting safety assurance in the track sector of Vietnam Railway by utilizing maintenance technologies and equipment developed and led by KORAIL.
The training took place over 10 days from the 18th to the 27th, with 15 railway officials participating, including executives from Vietnam Railway Corporation.
The Vietnamese trainees experienced △special lectures on railway operation, safety management, and facility maintenance △KTX test rides △tours of Seoul Station, Osong High-Speed and Metropolitan Railroad Facility Office, and the Metropolitan Railroad Vehicle Maintenance Team, learning KORAIL’s railway operation know-how.
In particular, the trainees showed great interest in Korea’s high-speed rail development process, 20 years of operational achievements, and maintenance systems, as the Vietnamese government is currently promoting a North-South high-speed rail project to revitalize railways.
Earlier last month, the Deputy Minister of Vietnam’s Ministry of Transport personally visited the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport and KORAIL to exchange views on high-speed rail development and strengthen cooperation intentions.
Additionally, KORAIL and Vietnam Railway plan to conduct two more invitation training sessions next year.
