Myanmar and South Korea have signed an MoU to build a logistics hub of international standard in Yangon, Xinhua reported on 6 February.

The logistics hub will be constructed by the Myanmar Ministry of Commerce and the HUBS MK Company of South Korea on a 24-hectare land plot in Yangon’s Hlaingtharya township where the biggest industrial zone lies.
