A |     S Korea-Vietnam-economic tiesS. Korea, Vietnam vow stronger ties in cutting-edge sectors, building on FTA SEOUL, Aug. 26 (Yonhap) -- South Korea and Vietnam vowed to further bolster economic exchanges with the goal of increasing bilateral trade to US$150 billion by 2030 and strengthening supply chain cooperation, Seoul's industry ministry said Wednesday. The two countries made the pledge during meetings of their joint industrial cooperation free trade agreement committees in Seoul, according to the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Resources. During the meetings, Industry Minister Kim Jung-kwan and his Vietnamese counterpart, Le Manh Hung, discussed ways to achieve the 2030 target and vowed to make progress in quarantine negotiations on Vietnamese lychees and passion fruit and South Korean tangerines and kiwifruit. Bilateral trade between South Korea and Vietnam was estimated at $94.6 billion in 2025, with the volume reaching $62.4 billion over the January-June period this year.                   This illustration depicts trade with Vietnam. (Yonhap)The two countries agreed to address challenges faced by South Korean firms operating in Vietnam while accelerating technology exchanges. Vietnam vowed to work closely with its local governments to help South Korean businesses secure local workers, while South Korea agreed to help its firms share advanced technologies with Vietnamese partners. South Korea and Vietnam will seek to ensure the smooth launch of a critical minerals supply chain technology center. The two countries vowed to continue talks on expanding cooperation across the critical minerals supply chain to ensure stable supplies for South Korean firms operating in Vietnam. The ministry said the two countries additionally agreed to pursue long-term cooperation in the energy sector, including the joint stockpiling of crude oil and the establishment of an emergency response mechanism. During the meetings, Korea National Oil Corp. and PetroVietnam Oil Stockpile Ltd. signed a memorandum of understanding to build an oil storage facility in Vietnam. The ministry said the project is expected to lay the foundation for stable oil supply chain cooperation between the two countries and across the Asia-Pacific region. "Since the FTA with Vietnam took effect, bilateral trade has grown by an annual average of 10 percent," Kim said in his opening remarks, raising expectations that the figure could reach $100 billion this year. "We will seek to expand the scope of trade and investment in a future-oriented manner, as Vietnam seeks to move beyond merely attracting investment toward adopting cutting-edge technologies, upgrading local production capabilities and pursuing green and digital transitions," Kim added.

    Illustrations: Chen Xia and Liu Rui/GTAn investigation published by Yuyuantantian, a social media account affiliated with China Media Group, said on Saturday that Japan's government-run generative AI platform Gennai could become a vehicle for right-wing political narratives in administrative work.
A Chinese expert said the current Japanese government has fueled an anti-China atmosphere by portraying China as a "threat" and using increasingly sophisticated tools, including AI, to shape public opinion and build support for Japan's military expansion. Such moves, he added, appear to echo the tactics of Japan's militarism during World War II.
Gennai has also become part of the Takaichi government's broader AI strategy. Japan's Digital Agency said Takaichi instructed the government in December 2025 to utilize the platform, and will launch a large-scale pilot project targeting approximately 180,000 government employees across all ministries and agencies.This means Gennai may well be ingesting data encompassing erroneous remarks on the Taiwan region, illegal claims over the Diaoyu Dao, and narratives that downplay or even glorify Japan's wartime aggression, Yuyuantantian said.
It is worth noting that Gennai is integrated with American large language models represented by the Claude series developed by US AI firm Anthropic, which explicitly designates China as an "adversarial nation," it added.
Yuyuantantian warned that if politically biased or historically distorted material were incorporated into Gennai-generated government content, such output could eventually become what it called a "high-authority source of misinformation."
Deployed extensively across government administrative work, the AI could feed its outputs into official Japanese publications such as government reports, white papers and policy documents. Labeled as official material, such AI generated content may then be scraped into datasets and treated by other large language models as highly credible source material, it said.
Lü Chao, an expert on East Asian studies and a professor at the Liaoning Academy of Social Sciences, told the Global Times that the Takaichi government has helped fuel an "anti-China" atmosphere by portraying China as a so-called "major security threat," thereby building public support for Japan's military expansion. 
Lü added the use of emerging technologies such as AI showed that efforts by Japan's right-wing forces to shape public opinion were taking increasingly diverse forms.
Japan's Asahi Shimbun previously revealed that Japanese right-wing forces have been using artificial intelligence on a large scale to churn out disinformation denying the Nanjing Massacre and claiming Japan treated civilians humanely during its invasion of China.
China's Ministry of State Security then published a commentary in July slamming such acts that trampled on historical justice and human conscience and have drawn fierce criticism from the international community and visionary people in Japan.
Historically, Japan repeatedly used domestic propaganda to stir public sentiment before and during its wars of aggression during World War II. Some members of the current Cabinet appear to be following a similar playbook for the Japanese militarism: distorting facts, stoking confrontation, portraying China as the main threat, and using that narrative to justify military expansion and pursue regional hegemony, Lü said.
"This is an extremely dangerous path, one that bears an unmistakable resemblance to the actions of Japanese militarism in the past," he added.
