Last night we saw a show about North Korea on the National Geographic Channel. It was made in 2006-07 and is available on You Tube. What a depressing place! The people are brainwashed and greatly revere Kim Jong-il despite the deplorable standard of living of most of the population and political prison camps. The common folk do not even have family pictures in their homes, only those of their "Great Leader", past and present.
A doctor from Nepal made a 10-day visit and removed cataracts from 1,000 people blind in one or both eyes so they could see again. Then they praised and thanked Kim Jong-il, and the doctor not at all.
