The South Korean embassy has perhaps been one of the busiest
diplomatic missions over the past few weeks as President Kim
Young-Sam plans to make a state visit for two days before
attending the APEC Economic Leaders Meeting on Tuesday.

Korea's delegation, including Foreign Minister Han Seung-joo,
Minister of Trade, Industry and Energy Kim Chul-soo and Minister
of Science and Technology Kim Si-joong, is staying at the
Mandarin Oriental Hotel. President Kim also will move to the
Mandarin from the State Palace after ending his state visit.

"We have set up a media center at the Bali Room of Hotel
Indonesia, located across the Mandarin Hotel, to help the 140
Korean journalists who are coming to cover the APEC meetings and
the state visit," said Bong-Hyup Chung, the Korean press attache.

Chung said about 35 businessmen are also expected here.

Indonesian and Korean businessmen will honor President Kim at
a luncheon meeting at the Shangri-La Hotel on Sunday. (vin)
