9 Comments

Two Japanese representatives of the North Korea Freedom Coalition take part in a protest at the Chinese Embassy in Tokyo, asking China not to repatriate North Korean nationals who have escaped the communist state. This is the first of many such events being held around the world today.

The Kanji written said: Disband the China-DPRK alliance instead of repatroation of North Korean nationals. Well, it will be a good thing to get rid of that Kim dynasty for China, that country counts on China's rations everyday! But the fundamental cause of the Korean peninsul was the US Japan alliance pact and US armed forces stood on the Korean peninsula, those were the elements of east asia's chaos and distability! America has been playing fire not just the yearly Inchon landing but extends to their threats over the entire yellow sea! Thats why a million north korean troops and thousand of guns were pointing at south! An essential retaliation to keep those pentagon hawks understood China's good will!

It's refreshing to see that this man can protest in a civilised country without the fear of imprisonment or worse. He certainly could not do this in North Korea,in fact I believe he would meet with quite a bit of aggression if tried this in South Korea.

I think it would be an even better thing for the North Koreas and regional peace. It is only a matter of time. All crazy dictators and their regimes fall eventually.

Even if it is not an obvious fall, Stalin and Mao are obvious examples of leaders (dictators) who were responsible for the deaths of millions of their country men and women and are now seen as a dark piece of history that both countries conveniently try to forget.

That crazy family in North Korea and their bunch of goons will fall ..... they all do eventually.

Perhaps this is a little premature? The day isnt even over yet. Revenge and retribution take time.

The alternative would have been a completely communist Korea with over 2 million troops and all of its thousands of guns pointing at Japan. And there would have been no such thing as a Galaxy 3.

I don't think the SK is seriously contemplating the possibility of an united Korea due to the short and mid-term strife which will reek havock to SK economy and society.

Think about it SK's unemployment rates shoots up ten folds as the the two Koreas unite since most from the north are ill trained as a viable work force so the vast majority will need to take rehab training. During that time the government will need to feed and house all of them which will no doubtlly drag the fisical budget in the red for many years to come.

At this time Japan may or maynot provide aid but to evade problems the untied government will no doubtly play the history card again agaisnt Japan making it difficult for Japan to provide aid making the situation worse.

Samuraiblue, not worse than Japan currently is. Japan has a huge debt while South Korea do not.

The trillions of dollars which Japan paid for China is a waste. Japan could have spend a 500 billion for the unification of Koreas and Koreans would be thankful to Japan`s support.
