SEOUL, July 19 (Yonhap) -- South Korean Foreign Minister Ban Ki-moon said Wednesday that he will travel to Cambodia next week to fine-tune the agenda and itinerary of President Roh Moo-hyun's upcoming trip to the Southeast Asian country.

"I will officially visit Cambodia from July 29 to 31," Ban said in a media briefing. "I plan to hold a foreign minister meeting between the two nations."

Ban added he will pay a courtesy call on the Cambodian leader, during which he will consult on Roh's trip to the country slated for late this year. He provided no details, however.
