The PPS delegates visited Indonesia and Thailand for an overseas demonstration for products designated as innovative by the Korean government and to explore ways to expand exports through the pilot purchase program, whereby overseas public recipient entities can test use products to verify their performance and quality. The trip included the signing of a memorandum of understanding with the Cirebon Power Plant in Indonesia as well as talks with Thai police and the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration which are considering introducing surveillance systems for strengthened enforcement against traffic violations.
