Retired high-ranking civil officer to serve in Uzbekistan
By Kim Young-wonPublished : Dec. 30, 2012 - 20:00
Kim Nam-seok, former vice minister of public administration and security, is expected to be appointed as a high-ranking public officer in the Republic of Uzbekistan.
The Ministry of Public Administration and Security said last Friday that it and the Uzbekistan government are considering naming Kim as the vice chairman of the Central Asian nation’s Committee on Information and Communication Technologies.
When the nomination is finally approved by the Uzbek government, Kim will be the first Korean working for a foreign government.
Kim is expected to work on transferring the know-how of building an e-government to Uzbekistan for the next three years with an annual salary at $160,000.
In September Uzbekistani President Islam Karimov asked the Korean government to recommend a figure for the post in the committee.
Kim passed the 23rd civil service test in 1979, and has taken higher posts in the MOPAS including the chief of the e-government headquarters and planning and coordination office before he retired in 2011.
