| "Something surprising is taking place in the North this year," Ha said. "One of the two pillars underpinning the North Korean system -- information control and iron-fisted rule -- is crumbling down rapidly." |
Edit:
Here is a heartbreaking story about the plight of North Korean refugees.
On The Border: Human Trafficking Thrives Across N.Korea-China Border
| Quote: |
| "I was first sold to a 34-year-old Chinese man in Shandong Province. Six months later, public security officers arrested me one day at midnight. Asked how, they said on a notification by a neighbor," Mun said. She was immediately sent to Dandong prison, from where a group of North Korean detainees were deported to Shinuiju chained two and two. There, she was thrown into a North Korean State Safety and Security Agency camp for a month. "They took a quantity of blood to check possible venereal disease. Undressing the women, they checked even inside the sexual organs with gloved hands,� Mun recalled. If you repeat sit-and-stand 20 times, you vomit up everything you have eaten. Male inmates are forced to strike their heads against the steel door and beaten with clubs when they resist. Pregnant inmates were forced to miscarry on the grounds they were bearing Chinese children. �The meals of corns with one side dish served were so poor that we longed for the meals we were given by the Chinese prison." Transferred to an escapees camp in Chongjin, North Hamgyeong Province, she was released after a stint of hard labor in 17-hour shifts. Several months later, now 25, she again entrusted her body to a trafficker. |

| Terrible stuff. Between this story and the one about an assasin trying to kill Kim, you have to wonder if there is a PR war between the two countries. |

| But Dokdo and Mad Cow are the real issues the South Korean public should be concerned about! |
