South Korea and the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) held ceremony Wednesday at Kaesong, a DPRK border town, to mark the opening of the first direct commercial land-line phone links between the two countries.

South Korean Information Minister Chin Dae-je attended the ceremony and delivered a congratulatory speech in which he expressed hope the new phone service will help spur mail, Internet and other information technology exchanges and cooperation between the two sides, reported South Korean major news agency Yonhap from Kaesong.

"We are ready for talks with North Korea (DPRK) on expanding across-the-board exchanges and cooperation in the IT sector," Chin was quoted as saying by Yonhap.

The phone connection between the DPRK's border city of Kaesong and South Korea marks another step forward in relations between the two nations.

Some 360 South Koreans including lawmakers and civilian delegates attended Wednesday's ceremony, with 40 DPRK officials, mostly communication experts, joining the event, said Yonhap.

During the ceremony, participants made test calls between the two sides.

About 15 South Korean medium-and-small size enterprises had built or are building their factories in the pilot zone of an industrial park in Kaesong.

The new phone service will drastically cut communication costs for South Korean firms had entered the Kaesong Industrial Complex. Up to now, the South Korean firms at the park have relied on four satellite phone lines which are connected with South Korea via a third country. They are six times more expensive than the land lines.

Kaesong Industrial Complex is one of three inter-Korean cooperation projects which aims to combine South Korean investment and technology with DPRK's cheaper but skilled labor force.

South Korea estimates some 1,000 South Korean companies are expected to relocate their factories to the park within next three years from 2006.

Before the opening of the land-line phone links, the two countries only had two set of direct hotlines between their military authorities.
