North
Korea is mourning the death of its “Dear Leader”, Kim Jong-Il.
According to North Korean State media, millions are weeping in the
streets and crying out their loss. This may seem a bit strange
knowing that Jong-Il’s arrival to power in 1994 was quickly
followed by a famine causing around 2 million deaths and that today
there are still daily food shortages and very poor infrastructures.
Kim Jong-Il’s death
could mean a new hope for this country, but his successor is none
other than one of his sons, about whom we don’t know much beside
the fact that he is in his early twenties. He is maybe a bit young to
take on the task of improving the lives of 23 million people...
