Vice Chairman Jung said, "Since October last year, exports have increased for four consecutive months, showing signs of bottoming out and rebounding," adding, "KITA will do its best to resolve regulations in the trade field to maintain the upward momentum of exports and become a partner to the industry."

He continued, "Starting next month, KITA plans to operate a 'Regulation and Difficulty Working Group' composed of export company practitioners to listen to various voices from the field," and added, "We plan to increase accessibility to suggestions on regulations and difficulties by conducting quarterly online surveys and ongoing offline interviews."

He also emphasized, "KITA will fulfill its fundamental role by supporting our companies to respond swiftly to sudden adverse events like the Red Sea incident, as well as resolving trade field regulations and difficulties and providing customized support for small and medium-sized enterprises and mid-sized companies."
