No doubt our schools have done a fantastic job looking after and educating these students in our region. The invitation to participate in this event was sent to all our secondary member schools and the response was great.
LHB and Eastern Bridge will do a press release to the Korean media. This is a good opportunity to introduce our region to the Korean market. LHB has also reached out to the Korean Embassy to seek opportunities to cooperate in education and raise the region's profile in the Korean international education market.
