South Korea\u2019s Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport <\/span>announced<\/span><\/a> on Sunday the resumption of the ROK-Japan High-Level Transportation Cooperation Conference after an eight-year hiatus. Scheduled for Feb. 20 in Seoul, this session aims to foster dialogue on major transportation policies, including advancements in autonomous vehicles, logistics and eco-friendly transport initiatives.<\/span><\/p>\n

The conference will cover topics such as regional and rural transportation services, the commercialization of fully autonomous driving by 2027 and strategies for carbon neutrality in transportation. Both countries will share visions for logistics policy directions and explore development strategies for mutual transportation issues.<\/span><\/p>\n

Why It Matters<\/b><\/p>\n

The resumption of the transportation cooperation conference is important for Seoul and Tokyo as they face challenges posed by their <\/span>fast-aging societies<\/span><\/a>. With provincial regions in both countries home to a higher concentration of senior citizens than their capital cities, the focus on regional and rural transportation services highlights a shared commitment to enhancing mobility for aging populations.<\/span><\/p>\n

The conference also increases the likelihood of collaboration in advancing autonomous driving. With initiatives like Seoul\u2019s <\/span>Autonomous Driving Vision 2030<\/span><\/a> and South Korea\u2019s move to <\/span>ease regulations<\/span><\/a> on autonomous vehicles, the partnership between Seoul and Tokyo is vital.<\/span><\/p>\n

The conference will also allow the two countries to increase cooperation in minimizing their carbon footprint in their transportation industries. This cooperation will help to advance their technological and environmental agendas and safeguard their economic interests in an increasingly <\/span>protectionist global market<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n
