Dhaka, July 11 -- Bangladesh and South Korea want to bring a momentum in their relations through greater engagements on trade and investment fronts during South Korean Prime Minister Lee Nak-yon's three-day official visit that begins on Saturday.

A number of bilateral instruments on trade, investment and cultural fronts are likely to be signed during the visit to strengthen the bilateral relations, an official told UNB.

Bangladesh will be Lee's first destination as part of his four-nation tour from July 13-21 that is aimed at strengthening Seoul's ties with Central Asia and Southwest Asia with a balanced diplomacy in the Middle East. He will visit Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan and Qatar after visiting Bangladesh.
