According to the declaration, the South will build a special economic zone in Haeju, a port town in southwestern North Korea, and establish a joint fishing area in nearby disputed waters in the Yellow Sea. The two sides will also work to establish joint use of a nearby river and shipping routes in waters that have long been the focal point of military clashes between the Koreas, most recently in 2002. Haeju is not far from the Kaesong Industrial Complex, the economic zone already established inside the North by South Korea.
