Arms agency to open promotion booth with affiliated organs at int'l arms exhibition

SEOUL, Oct. 16 (Yonhap) -- The state arms procurement agency will run a joint promotion booth with related agencies during an international defense exhibition set to kick off next week, officials said Thursday.

The promotion booth will be showcased at the upcoming Seoul International Aerospace & Defense Exhibition slated for Oct. 20-24 at KINTEX in Goyang, just northwest of Seoul, according to the Defense Acquisition Program Administration (DAPA).

DAPA aims to promote the process of developing weapons systems and the outcome of arms exports with its four affiliated agencies, including the Agency for Defense Development.

The arms agency plans to hold government-to-government meetings, seminars on international arms cooperation and consultations over arms exports from Monday to Thursday.

It will also host various programs open to the public Friday, such as a book concert on rifles and an information session about South Korea's military satellite project, known as the "425 project."
