TIME on North Korea’s Looming Food Crisis

by Robert Koehler on October 8, 2008

in Inter-Korean Issues

What’s this, you say? North Korea’s headed for yet another food crisis?

Excuse the nonchalance, but I simply cannot understand how this could be true, given the economic reform and openness I was told was happening thanks to a decade of “engagement” from the DJ and Roh administrations.

Must be Lee Myung-bak’s fault.

“Excuse the nonchalance, but I simply cannot understand how this could be true, given the economic reform and openness I was told was happening thanks to a decade of “engagement” from the DJ and Roh administrations.”

The answer is probably hidden in Roh’s ‘missing’ computer disks.

Sorry KJI, maybe not this time.

The S Korean gov’t is going to have to give food aid to S Korean’s once the inflation that’s going to follow this Won free fall kicks in.

Also, F’em all anyway. Feed them missile launches.

News is suppose to report when something is different from the norm. I believe they should only report when there is no famine in the North. As well as only report when there is peace in the Middle East!
