Well, I know I haven't been posting much of late but I thought I'd take a few minutes to post up something I thought interesting. It seems that North korea is in need of some funds.
First, they filed a suit/complaint with the National Human Rights Commission of Korea. It appears that they would like to be paid $1,000,000,000 in compensation for the imprisonment and torture of some of it's newly-repatrioted citizens. Not to be outdone though, a day or so later some party from the South filed a similar suit against the North. The Noh administrations response... chirp, chirp.
As well, just the other day, a North Korean (soldier?) was killed in an automobile accident involving a Hyundai Asan employee. I'm not sure on the details of this, but I seriously wonder if $1,000,000 (what they are asking for in damages) would be what the family of the victim would usually get in any similar case in the DPRK.
I seriously wonder though if the North just isn't hard up for money. Right now Kim Jong-il is in China and living it up and no doubt either trying to broker more aide or spending more of this hard earned cash on a new fighter jet.
