Saudi Arabia Honoured for Arabic Language Propagation in South Korea

Saudi Arabia’s delegation were the guests of honour at the recent Seoul International Book Fair 2024, where the Saudi Literature, Publishing and Translation Commission organised a seminar entitled ‘The Role of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in Teaching Arabic in Korea’.

Saudi diplomats at the event highlighted the Kingdom’s efforts in propagating Arabic language and history in South Korea.
