The issue of carrying out defense construction goals suggested by the 8th Party Congress through thorough practice, and the principal issue of safeguarding peace and stability on the Korean peninsula. The policy tasks ahead of the government are clarified in detail. #NorthKorea
“Our Republic will not make even the slightest concessions or compromises on matters related to the fundamental interests of our country and people, regardless of whether the east wind or the west wind blows, no matter what challenges & difficulties stand in the way." #NorthKorea
The east wind is 🇨🇳China; the west wind represents the 🇺🇸U.S.
They both look at the world through the prism of their own self interests.
Certifiable narcissists.
But there is a storm coming, possessing a value of location, location, location and blessed w/resources #NorthKorea
Kim Jong-eun promised reactivation of the South-#NorthKorea cross-border communication hotlines {~40} by early October.
That date can't come soon enough as Seoul is concerned about more military test launches and promises laid out at the 8th Congress are truly alarming #Countdown

Ri Pyong Chol__Pak Jong-chon
Kim Su Gil__Ri Yong Gil
Kim Jong Gwan__Jang Jong Nam
Kim Jong Ho__Kim Song Nam
Choe Son Hui__Kim Yo-jong #NorthKorea
Umm...Kim Tok-hun would have replaced the retired Pak Pong-ju.
Oops! #NorthKorea
I could have done a better job on the above list but don't really have the energy/time/desire to keep up with the changes.
Don't really need the whims of Kim Jong-eun to dominate my life. Just show me results.
Ok...ok. Maybe I'll do one/day {lol} #NorthKorea
Pak Jong Chon has been elected to the Presidium of the Politburo, in effect, replacing Ri Pyong-chol on the 5-man Standing Committee.
Now, we have a better image of the scene at this year's October Parade. How long before Kim Jong-eun replaces his wife, Ri Sol-ju¿ #NorthKorea
Alternate members added to the Politburo: Yu Jin, Rim Kwang Il and Jang Jong Nam.
It does make sense to elevate Pak Jong-chon as the WPK places the Land Management issue high on its agenda. It would require much input from military builders to develop infrastructure. #NorthKorea
Rest assured that newly-elected Chief of the General Staff, Rim Kwang-il, will be pushing for more firepower {tactical nukes} from his boss
His election is yet another indication that this is not the time for diplomacy in Pyongyang. Is he a hawk/hardliner or realist¿ #NorthKorea
