Lee Sang-kyun, chairman of Seoul Cyber University, was presented with Kazakhstan's Order of Dostyk on Monday. The prestigious award recognizes his efforts to boost online education and foster friendly ties between Korea and Kazakhstan. Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev personally bestowed the honor during his recent visit to Korea for the inaugural Korea-Central Asia Summit.
The Order of Dostyk is among Kazakhstan's highest state awards, bestowed upon individuals globally for their contributions to peace, friendship, international collaboration, and social cohesion.
Lee expressed his profound gratitude for the accolade, stating, "I am deeply honored and it means a great deal to receive Kazakhstan's prestigious Order of Dostyk." He emphasized his commitment to advancing educational and cultural exchanges between the two nations, aiming to establish a foundation for ongoing cooperation that will benefit future generations.
Seoul Cyber University has maintained strong connections with Kazakhstan, most notably by installing a bust of the renowned Kazakh poet Abai Kunanbaev (1845-1904) on its campus in Seoul's Gangbuk District earlier this year to commemorate the 30th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Korea and Kazakhstan.
