actually the north korean ppl i met are really a nice bunch, and they are going to celebrate their national day soon. they will publish an advertisment in the straits times expounding the glory of the great and dear leaders.
its really sad to see their juche policy killing off so many of their own.

guys.. keep this coming.. i love this thread.. it's great to see softies discussing about world issues..
The only people that should worry about going there are Americans.
I remember some guy posted on his blog or something about going to North Korea.
Basically, from the very start of going there, you will have a tour guide, and he will follow you basically everywhere. You aren't allowed to go anywhere without a guide, and where you're allowed to go is quite restricted, you don't really have much choice, it's a planned tour which you HAVE to follow. The guy said that if you were lucky and friendly to the guide, he might let you walk abit around the outside of the hotel.
You're better off looking for the blog i mentioned, or just checking the net for details because I don't remember every single thing.
But basically, if you want a normal holiday, that wouldn't be the place to go to.

Every brutalized population will eventually be freed. History has proven us so.
Remember how did the Fascists run from Italy when the Allied was knocking at its doorstep? Remember how Hitler committed suicide at the end of World War 2? Remember how the Tsars of Russia were overthrown by its very own people? Remember how Communism collapsed when Gorbachev introduced the concept of glasnost just 20+ years ago?
Let's just say that the totalitarian state in North Korea will come to an end. The only uncertain thing is... How long will such a totalitarian state remain totalitarian in this modern world?
It's amazing that The North Korean leaders have been able to contain pressure from the world for years...

Some interesting facts about North Korea -
1. If you plan to visit, you will not be allowed to roam free without a guide. Just like blank said. The guide is not really a guide, he is there to ensure you follow the carefully planned itinerary and not do things that are disallowed. Some places you can't even take pictures.
2. People still worship a president of theirs who died quite a while ago. Everyone who visits a statue of that president (can't remember his name) is supposed to walk up, bow and then slowly walk away.
3. North Korean has one of the biggest (if not the biggest) sports stadium in the world.
4. If you visit North Korea and manage to visit their residential areas - you will see dirty slums beneath the prettily painted facades of the buildings there.
5. Americans are the most hated human beings in North Korea. Some of them will try to beat up anyone on the street who looks like he came from America. I think because of the severe famine that killed thousands during a time when America imposed sanctions on North Korea.
6. Male children as young as 10 are taught to handle firearms to 'prepare them for the worst'.
7. It is said that no one in North Korea has AIDS or HIV. Everyone must go for a test yearly. The tourist 'guides' have to go once every three months.
8. The national anthem is played without fail every morning, broadcasted via loudspeakers installed in the streets everywhere.
9. There are only two churches in the whole of North Korea, if I am not wrong.
