In a telephone conversation with this reporter, an officer in a North Korean border guard unit said, "In accordance with an order from the National Defense Commission calling for us to completely seal the border, border guard units and all the citizens of the border regions were mobilized and have been building a 2 meter high wooden fence since last month." Construction is first being done in those hard-to-patrol areas used by defectors to escape; wide-open, easily patrolled areas are being saved for later, he said.
Let’s think about this. A Nork Officer MAKES A TELEPHONE CALL to the south, and shoots the breeze with a reporter. How likely is that?
The officer added, "The North Korea-China border is more that 1,000 li (about 400 km) long, and the reality is that it’s impossible to block all of it. I can’t understand who would present such an absurd idea."
Oh, Comrade... A message for you from the Great Leader: Could you come to the Death Camp, and bring everything in your desk? |
