unexpected benefit to the north from U.N. sanctions..

DailyNK article reports that internal coal supply is more plentiful since the north is not exporting it's coal.
as a result, north Korean power plants in the Pyongyang area are running at full capacity.

if you live in the outer regions, i guess you are out of luck. so what's new hey?

Mixed views from the average North Korean regarding the Inter Korean Summit

here is a short article from the DailyNK covering the average north Korean.

from reading the article, it looks like not many see a direct benefit to their day to day lives.

from where we sit though, it's just a great thing that the two heads of state are on good terms. nothing bad about that and i hope they tell the united states and united nations to keep their noses out of Korea's business.

Thousand of North Korean people welcome President Moon and shout for the unification of Korea

Thousand of North Korean people welcome President Moon and shout for the unification of Korea in the streets of Pyongyang.

Most of them wear Korean traditional dresses, Hanbok with North Korean flags.

I wonder if they really want the unification of Korea or they are just ordered to shout "the Unification of Korea."
I think North Korean government planed this performance, but I hope their message will come true sooner or later.

united nations command blocks North and South Korean train project

it's pretty obvious the u.s. dosn't really want peace on the peninsula.
they are using the north Korean nuclear process as an excuse.
boggles the mind to think that a foreign country can step between north and south peace process.

the united states does not have the right to dictate who has nukes when it's the ONLY country that has dropped nukes on a civilian population. also the deployment of depleted uranium in the illegal gulf war. (translated: invasion and occupation of Iraq)
i call that hypocrisy and i'll say it again, it's because of the united states that the north started developing them in the first place. it's the only thing between them and a known aggessor.

here is the story
