A visitor to South Korea is generally impressed by the existence of technologically advanced transportation network consisting of high speed railways, highways, bus routes, ferry services and air routes that criss-cross the country. The Express bus terminal station, Seoul Subway Line 9, has become a new landmark of Seoul. Korail provides frequent train service to all major cities. The Korean high-speed rail system, the KTX was launched in April 2004 making the country a member of the league of France, Japan, Germany and Spain in the super-high speed train era, operating at speeds of over 300 km per hour. The construction of Korea's KTX rail link is an extreme test of the county's expertise and innovation.

In an effort to keep the Seoul-Pusan 412 km track as straight as possible, it was necessary to construct 51 tunnels through 190 km of mountainous country, while raising 104 bridges over numerous rivers. The KTX railway is a real feat of Korean ingenuity and skill.

Construction of South Korea's largest airport, Incheon International Airport, was completed in 2001. By 2007, the airport was serving 30 million passengers a year. The airport has been selected as the "Best Airport Worldwide" for four consecutive years since 2005 by Airports Council International. There are other international airports and seven domestic airports. Korean Air, founded in 1962, served 2,164 passengers in 2008.

Korea knows that an efficient transport network is important for the sustenance of economic growth. And as Jin Soo Kim, Director General of African and Middle Eastern Affairs Bureau says, his country is prepared to cooperate with Cameroon in the development of its rail and road network. In that connection, Korea has proposed to the Cameroon government a project for the modernization and development of the rail and road network that will cover the entire Cameroonian territory.
