S. Korean president to visit Manila

MANILA (AFP): South Korean President Kim Young-sam will visit the Philippines in November on his way to the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) meeting in Indonesia, Philippine Press Secretary Jesus Sison said here yesterday.

Sison said that Kim would visit the country Nov. 10-12 and would meet Philippine President Fidel Ramos to discuss economic matters including increasing Korean investment in the Philippines.

Kim's visit will come just one day before U.S. President Bill Clinton arrives in this country, also on the way to the APEC meeting.
