It appears that Chia Head is determined to hunker down and tighten screws domestically and internationally. However, grains are getting expensive in the international market. This is another burden to N. Korean regime because they will get less grain aids. Nobody has spare money or grains to appease Chia Head. Usual blackmail tactics would be less effective in this circumstance.

Why delay the inevitable? Without outside food aid I doubt if Kim Jung Il could last a year. Of course, chaos would probably be the result, as well as mass starvation, but they’re already starving according to the article. China and the ROK would have a mass refugee problem, but they’re both rich nations. The DPRK needs to go, just as East Germany did.

But I just read the other day NK was looking to strengthen ties with Namibia. Maybe they can help...

Food shortages, famines, floods, bad harvests...

These have been going on for almost two decades now, with no end in sight.

The humanitarian thing would be to offer fat pensions, immunity from prosecution and luxurious mansions to all the big brass in North Korea if they will just agree to peaceful reunification.

Too bad it will never happen. I don’t see the end in sight any time soon, either.

If he can’t feed the military, he is all done. Somebody is going to knock him over fairly soon.

Can’t believe some military type doesn’t take control in N.Korea and march out chi pet and his ruthless gang.
You have to know that some of the military have been to the south and seen the differences in conditions.

However, the US government this week sent an humanitarian expert to Seoul to discuss North Korea’s food situation.

But yet we can flip the bill for trips to Africa for Uranium. I bet Chia’s plate is full at every setting also.

Thanks for the post.

It was the horrible food shortages which originally started the fall of the Soviet Empire. We need to send satellite transmissions over there showing Americans stuffing their faces at those great Tennessee buffets or people looking at which steaks to choose from the tray at a Ruth Chris Steak House.

At least they got to hear the orchestra before they die of starvation.

This is a necessary part of Kim maintaining power. If people are busy staying alive, they don’t have the time or energy to revolt.

China is the only reason North Korea still exists. They want a weak/easily controlled buffer-state on their border. They don’t care how brutal the regime.

The agency also said farm labourers were staying away from work because they were not getting any food. This was said to be affecting the planting of new crops.

Huh. Wonder how that works.

It’s amazing that people can be so pacified that they do absolutely nothing to rise up and overthrow this Satanic regime.
