The prime ministers of the two Koreas met Wednesday afternoon in Seoul to discuss ways to implement last month's inter-Korean summit accords.
At the meeting, South Korean Prime Minister Han Duck-soo has proposed that the two Koreas set up a body to discuss establishment of a West Sea peace zone.
He also suggested a standard and principles for establishing a joint fishing zone.
In addition, Seoul proposed that Pyongyang facilitate cross-border transportation to the Gaesong Industrial Complex, streamline customs inspections and allow Internet access to South Korean visitors, while offering to expand reunions of separated familites.
North Korean Premier Kim Yong-il suggested that the two sides build joint shipyards in the North's Anbyeon and Nampo areas, calling for South Korea's "bold" investment in the North's infrastructure.
In a keynote speech, Han expressed hope that the two sides would produce "very good results" in line with the summit agreement.
The North Korean premier also showed strong commitment to the talks, saying he hopes to produce results desired by the whole Korean nation.
Following the plenary session, delegates from the two sides attended a welcome dinner hosted by Prime Minister Han.
On Thursday, they will fine-tune a ten-point plan to implement the summit agreement.
The inter-Korean prime ministers' talks, the first since 1992, are expected to enhance South-North relations on the way to realizing peace on the Korean Peninsula.
