KEY INSIGHTS
While South Korea is likely to fall short of its goal of
spending 0.25 percent of its gross national income on
ODA this year, the emerging donor still plans to boost
its aid budget for the ninth consecutive year in 2015.
Transportation, education and health are priorities for
South Korean foreign aid. South Korea directs the
bulk of its foreign aid to the Asia-Pacific region.
South Korea has committed to untie 75 percent of its
bilateral ODA by 2015, potentially opening the door
to international implementers in the countrys aid
industry.
