Bae Jong-ha, former president of the Korea National College of Agriculture and Fisheries, was named as representative of the Vietnam office of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, according to the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs.
“Bae will be responsible for coordinating the FAO’s support programs to develop the agricultural sector in Vietnam,” a ministry official said.
Bae, 56, had served the Agriculture Ministry between 1979 and 2009 before he moved to the Korea National College of Agriculture and Fisheries in 2010.
He was in charge of the agricultural sector in negotiations for the Korea-U.S. free trade agreement between 2005 and 2007.
Bae graduated from Seoul National University in 1985 with a major in economics and received his Ph.D. in agricultural economics from Minnesota State University in the U.S. in 1990.
