U.S. Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau, fifth from left, poses with American Chamber of Commerce in Korea (AMCHAM) Chairman James Kim, sixth from left, after holding a closed-door roundtable with a group of businesspeople from Korea and the U.S. at the Grand Hyatt Seoul, Sunday. Participants for the event exchanged ideas on how to deepen bilateral business cooperation. The U.S. business leaders particularly underscored the importance of deregulation for Korea to attract more U.S. firms to establish their regional headquarters here. AMCHAM said there were also discussions on the necessity of expanding the visa quota for employees of Korean companies dispatched to the U.S. The chamber did not disclose further details, but added that Landau reaffirmed the U.S. government's commitment to reciprocal economic partnership.
