South Korea to set up online service to improve aid delivery to North Korea

New website will make future aid delivery more efficient, says MOU

South Korea's government is set to establish an online information system equipped with demand and geographical analysis in a bid to improve the provision of aid to North Korea, Seoul's Ministry of Unification (MOU) said mid-March in a detailed memorandum which had remained unpublicized until Tuesday.

The MOU told NK News that it needed around 700 million KRW (US$ 628,761) for the project, of which 400 million will be used for system development and 300 million will be used to purchase equipment.
