The Korean Peninsula is at a crossroads. South Korea and Japan are bogged down in historical and national security conflicts. Trade friction between the United States and China is expected to continue for some time. Denuclearization talks between Washington and Pyongyang remain stalemated.

Under the theme “Asia Towards Resilient Peace: Cooperation and Integration,” this year’s Jeju Forum for Peace & Prosperity will invite opinion leaders from around the world to exchange views in nearly 70 sessions on five main agenda areas: peace, prosperity, sustainability, diversity and global Jeju.

The forum will see some 5,000 participants including former Secretary of the United Nations Ban Ki-moon; Helen Clark, former prime minister of New Zealand; Heinz Fischer, former president of Austria; Yukio Hatoyama, former prime minister of Japan; and Malcolm Turnbull, former prime minister of Australia.
