Laptops are owned by the rich, you are only allowed less than 50 websites to visit. Women are restricted to the kinda hairstyle they can do. Kim is probably the only man in the country with that his hairstyle. Citizens have specific time to watch TV and restricted to specific channels. |

omenka: He is right. China is only communist politically. Economically, since the Deng reforms of the late 1970s, China now practices "moderate socialism "; a mixture of capitalism and state capitalism... 1 Like |

I've read a lot of comments here but here's the fact: 1) NK is the world's last secluded state. So a lot is unverified. The Kims has also over the years established an extensive personality cult around their family dynasty. Tourists/visitors to NK must go round the country with a guide and must visit only selected locations. Human rights there are extremely limited and the little the world knows about the country is from state media and the accounts of defectors and visitors who managed to visit the country 2) NK is a poor country dependent on trade with china and Russia as well as international aid 3) The state ideology of "Juche" is a mixture of Korean nationalism and communism. The state is officially atheist though few churches and temples exist. The Kim dynasty is worshipped But despite this 1) Most of the claims about NK in the western media is likely to be untrue 2) Indications have shown that standards of living in NK is better than in many African countries. For example, NK has a "high" human Development index unlike most African countries. 3) The capital Pyongyang is more globalised and recognised internationally than any city in Nigeria |

More Facts about North Korean 11. Elections are held every 5 years in North Korea, but only one name appears on the ballot list. 12. It is the year 109 in North Korea, not 2020 because the country marks years from the birth of Kim Il-sung, 13. North Korea enlists around 2000 attractive women as part of a ‘Pleasure Squad’ who provide entertainment and sexual services for top officials. 14. There are an estimated 34,000 statues of Kim Il Sung in North Korea – one for every 3.5 km, or one for every 750 people. All North Koreans are also required to wear a badge featuring his face as a mark of their loyalty to the founder of the nation. 15.Kim Jong-il was apparently born under a double rainbow and his birth caused a new star to appear in the sky; he learned to walk and talk before 6 months and has the ability to control the weather by his moods, according to the official government-released biography of his life. 16.Wearing jeans is banned in North Korea as it is seen as a sign of American imperialism. 17. North Korea is the world’s only necrocracy: a government that still operates under the rules of a former, dead leader. 18.In North Korea, possessing Bibles, watching South Korean movies and distributing pornography may be punishable by death. 19. North Koreans don’t celebrate birthdays on July 8 and December 17, since those are the dates that Kim Il-sung and Kim Jong-il died. 20. The country is beautiful and their citizens are smart and intelligent, but you shouldn't visit it!! DON'T EVER COMPARE NIGERIA TO NORTH KOREAN, NIGERIA IS A REPUBLIC WHILE NORTH KOREAN IS A COMMUNIST AND NECROCRACY COUNTRY! |

Olam09:Exactly! Drew Binsky. I watched his NK videos as well as other countries. When I read the crap this guy has been spewing on this thread I shrugged because I know he's just one of those ill informed kids going about spreading their ignorance that's been masked as intelligence and knowledge. Gave him two questions to answer he ran away. They think anything anti-West must be good and the West bad. So whatever rumor that pops into their head must be truth. Crazy folks. |
