Believe it or not, 국토전략TV tends to exaggerate in favor of Korea. Anyway...

Is bin Salman really coming to South Korea?

Is he abandoning China in favor of the partnership with South Korea?  Wow !!

We will see what happens. Sorry, I did not know all about these below.

Jan 18, 2022 ... South Korean president in Saudi Arabia, meets the crown prince.

This makes me dizzy...

한국이 Asia에서 중국과 패권다툼을 하게 되는 것인가?

Are we going to see how the historical irony between China and Korea gets to play?

고구려의 영광 이후, it may be about the time it should be played again.

"원래 중국건데, 한국이 맡아달라" 극비 방한 사우디 왕세자 특별제안에

세계최대 프로젝트 놓친 중국 초비상걸린 상황
Aug 11, 2022 by 스카이경제

최근 사우디의 빈살만 왕세자가 한국을 방문해 정상회담을 진행하고

세계 최대 프로젝트중 하나인 네옴시티 관련한 논의를 할것으로 알려졌습니다

여기에 중국이 크게 긴장하고 있다고 하는데요

중국은 오래전부터 사우디 네옴 프로젝트를 수주하기위해 엄청난 시간과 노력을 투자했고

결국엔 MOU, 양해각서까지 체결하는 결과를 냈습니다

하지만 MOU, 양해각서는 법적인 효력이 없는 확인서에 불과하며

사우디가 미국과의 갈등상황에 협상카드중 하나로 중국을 사용했다는 주장이 나오며

사우디의 세계최대 프로젝트에서 중국이 빠지고 한국이 핵심 협력국가로 참여하게될

분위기가 감지되고 있습니다 관련 소식을 자세히 알아보겠습니다

WM Note: MOU=Memorandum of Understanding

엊그제 올려진 Video인데, 이건 진짜같읍니다.

이러다간 헛탕친 중국의 분노는 고사하고 미국의 질투까지 사게되겠네요.

한국이 성공적으로 잘 해보기를 바랍니다.

수많은 본인의 고교동기들 (주로 공대출신)이 Saudi Arabia와 중동에서

한때 열심히 일했었는데 (물론 수많은 다른 한국사람들도 포함해서)

아마 그 결과 한국인들의 그동안의 전적을 Arab nation들이 인정하고

한국인들의 착실건실함에 Arab인들의 믿음을 산 모양입니다.

Bravo, to all Korean workers and my friends!

The latest news from Korea says that Saudi prince, Bin Salman will be coming

to Korea to meet the Korean president and etc in October or November 2022.

Will Korea be able to handle all these productions, the humongous exports

of the defense weapons and new city constructions in Saudi Arabia?

“Like during the Cold War … Saudi Arabia tries to play great powers off against one another,” Singh said. “If you are worried that the U.S. will drive too hard a bargain, a great way to mitigate that is to engage in a flirtation with Moscow and Beijing, to tell every visiting American delegation how much more reliable the Russians are as an ally, or how the Chinese are offering you cooperation in this military area which the U.S. won’t like.”

*It is good news that SK has a probable business deal with Saudi that tops any other 

deals ever that happened in the past in its magnitude and level of complexity. S. Koreans 

should be proud of their country that competes for head to head with superpowers worldwide. 

*It is amazing that SK can build a new city anywhere in the world as good as any other 

nation on earth if not better. I know it because my brother was one of the leading city 

planners in SK. He planned 분당 and many other cities around Seoul. He was involved

in planning cities in China and Vietnam. Because South Korea has evolved through

underdeveloped, developing, and developed countries since the 1970s, she acquired practical

aspects of city planning while U.S. and European countries have little left to create new cities.

SK㈜와 SK이노베이션은 미국 차세대 소형모듈원자로(SMR·Small Modular Reactor) 설계기업 테라파워에 2억5000만 달러(약 3000억원) 규모로 지분 투자한다고 15일 밝혔다. SK그룹은 미국 외국인투자심의위원회(CFIUS) 승인을 받아 지분 투자를 완료했으며, 한국·동남아 등에서 테라파워의 원자로 상용화 사업에 참여할 예정이다.

In addition, SK can sell weapons to Saudi Arabia. SK's blossoming defense industry

is attractive to the countries which have to circumvent the U.S. that tries to use human rights

as leverage. S.K. is currently negotiating to sell nuclear power plants to Saudi Arabia. 

Nuclear power is gaining popularity as an alternative to decreasing carbon emissions 

instead of being seen as an environmental hazard.
