Chairman Kim's Dissolving Kingdom (North Korea)

Excerpt:

"Word has spread like wildfire of the Christian underground
that helps fugitives to reach South Korea. People who lived
in silent fear now dare to speak about escape. The regime
has almost given up trying to stop them going, although it
can savagely punish those caught and sent back.

"Everybody knows there is a way out" said a woman, who for
obvious reasons cannot be identified but who spoke in front
of several witnesses.

"They know there is a Christian network to put them in contact
with the underground, to break into embassies in Beijing or to
get into Vietnam. They know, but you have to pay a lot of money
to middlemen who have the Christian contacts."

Her knowledge was remarkable. North Korean newspapers are stifled
by state control. Televisions receive only one channel which is
devoted to the 'Dear Leader's' deeds. Radios are fixed to a
single frequency. For most citizens the internet is just a word.

Yet North Koreans confirmed that they knew that escapers to China
should look for buildings displaying a Christian cross and should
ask among Korean speakers for people who knew the word of Jesus."

------

Let us all agree to pray for the accelerated collapse of the evil
that is Kim Jong Il's Communist dictatorship. The people of North
Korea deserve no less. They have suffered for too many years. May
they soon be freed from their shackles, and may their tormenters
reap what they have sown.
