(LEAD) Inter-Korean tourism talks to be held as scheduled next week: Seoul

  
SEOUL, Feb. 6 (Yonhap) -- Inter-Korean tourism talks will be held as scheduled next week, despite North Korea's failure to include a higher-level official in its delegation, Seoul officials said Saturday.

On Jan. 25, North Korea proposed a border meeting with South Korea to resume cross-border tours that have been suspended for nearly one and a half years but the Seoul government counter-proposed that it be held on Monday.
