Minister of Information Moses Kunkuyu has called on Malawian youths in South Korea to actively participate in the socio-economic advancement of Malawi.
On Wednesday evening in Seoul, following Vice President Saulos Chilima’s meeting with Malawian youths in South Korea, Kunkuyu emphasized the importance of channeling their time, energy, and resources into activities that will benefit their homeland.
Kunkuyu praised the Malawian youths for presenting valuable ideas to the Vice President on how Malawi can learn from South Korea in areas such as trade, education, and transportation.
“As government, we need constructive ideas that can contribute to the development of our country. We have wasted much of our time in the past blaming one another while our neighbouring countries are developing. We need to change our mind set, “he said.
The Minister then assured the diaspora community in South Korea of government’s commitment to developing the country under the leadership of President Chakwera through the Agriculture, Tourism and Mining (ATM) strategy.
Representative of the diaspora community in South Korea, Gracious Chirambo assured government that youths will always contribute positively for the country to develop the way Korea did in few years.
“We wish our country well and it’s our wish that any knowledge and skills we are gaining here should benefit our country in one way or the other,” he said.
Many of the diaspora community living in South Korea are students.
