Kuching South launched Guro Street on July 31, marking another step in the city’s long-running link with Guro District in Seoul.
Deputy Premier Datuk Amar Dr Sim Kui Hian said the name reflects closer business, culture and people-to-people ties between Sarawak and South Korea. The partnership between MBKS and Guro District started in 2013.
Dr Sim said Korean interest in Sarawak is growing in renewable energy, hydrogen, carbon capture and gas development. He also pointed to OCI, which has invested more than USD2 billion in Sarawak since 2019 and has its headquarters in Kuching.
Also present were Guro District Mayor Jang Inhong and Kuching South Mayor Dato Wee Hong Seng.
