Udrea talked with Samsung vicepresident Yang-Bai Kim about a possible cooperation through a public-private partnership. The minister mentioned several projects that could be implemented this way, such as the General Cadastre.
The Development Ministry, which now coordinates the National Cadastre and Land Registration Agency, has among its priorities registering every building and plot of land in Romania, creating electronic maps and making data available on the Internet.
Udrea said the procurement procedures will be held shortly and the project’s implementation may begin in three months.
According to the ministry, Yang-Bai Kim said he is very interested in developing Samsung’s operations in Romania and in collaborating with the Development Ministry. He added that the company has already secured its financing solutions and is prepared to make the investment.
Udrea is attending the UNWTO General Assembly in South Korea, taking place between October 8 and 14.
The minister and Samsung officials also discussed other projects, including a multi-purpose hall and an eco-neighborhood, both to be located in Bucharest. Kim said the company’s specialists would visit Romania to analyze such investment opportunities.
