Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates is eyeing stronger partnership with South Korea, which he believes is capable of taking a greater role in global health cooperation due to its ability in combating infectious diseases.

Gates, who was on a three-day visit to South Korea, was invited to speak at the National Assembly by speaker Kim Jin-pyo on Tuesday. He is also expected to meet with South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol after the assembly.
