New York - UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon met Wednesday with a compatriot, South Korean President Lee Myung-bak, who promised to increase Seoul's participation in the United Nations commensurate with its economic resources.
The protocol obliged Ban to speak to Lee in English, which Lee received in Korean through a translator. Another translator gave Ban the English version of Lee's Korean.
The conversation went well, said Ban, who was South Korea's foreign minister until his election to the UN top position in January, 1997.
