Pyongyang Kids Learn the New Song

By Shin Joo Hyun
[2009-05-21 16:15 ]
In Pyongyang elementary schools, teachers have been teaching their students ¡°The Song of General Kim Jong Woon.¡±

A Japanese source released a rumor to Daily NK on Thursday, ¡°On the 6th, in a few elementary schools in Pyongyang, students learned ¡®The Song of General Kim Jong Woon.¡¯ The lyrics contain such mainstays of idolization as ¡®gallant steps¡¯ and ¡®the General of Mt. Baekdu.¡¯

The source reported, ¡°Students said that they had to memorize the song, otherwise teachers wouldn¡¯t let them go home. In Pyongyang schools, the authorities have been trying to arouse an atmosphere of succession.¡±

He added, ¡°Teaching his song in schools is the same as confirming him as the successor.¡±

According to the source, a new army slogan, ¡°Let¡¯s escort the Morning Star General, heir to the lineage of Mt. Beakdu, the Young General, and General Kim Jong Woon with one heart,¡± has spread.

Although Kim Jong Woon¡¯s real age is 26, in lectures it is taught that he is 34 to 36 years old.

The source explained, ¡°It is no longer a secret; general residents say overtly that Kim Jong Woon is the successor, even though there have not been any instructions about the succession issue handed down from the Party to the People¡¯s Units.¡±

He added, ¡°Officials of the Party inflate Kim Jong Woon¡¯s career, even saying that he graduated from seven universities. Then, some sarcastically remark, ¡®Was he a university student when he was crawling about on all fours?¡¯¡±

Designate a Successor Quickly!


By Jung Kwon Ho, Lee Sung Jin
[2009-05-15 18:01 ]
The Worker¡¯s Party has apparently organized a campaign mobilizing the Party cell organization to send petition letters to Kim Jong Il asking for the swift nomination of his successor.

A source from Pyongyang released news on the 14th, ¡°A secret decree, ¡®on offering a loyal letter by the Party cells to the General (Kim Jong Il)¡¯ was handed down under the name of the Central Committee of the Party on April 9th. The contents of the loyalty letter should ask Kim Jong Il to appoint a successor quickly so that the future of the fatherland can be stabilized soon.¡±

Changchun, China -- After Kim Jong Il conducted an onsite inspection in Yangkang Province, rumors that ¡°the General (Kim Jong Il) looked extremely unwell¡± began to circulate among cadres of the provincial Party committee and they have spread fast across the whole country in just a month.

It is no longer a great shock for North Korean residents to learn that Kim Jong Il is ill.

A source from Yangkang Province reported on the 14th in a telephone conversation with Daily NK, ¡°When the General visited Samjiyeon (in Yangkang Province) last month, officers of the Escort Bureau accompanied him. In most cases he did not get out of the car while looking over the sites and then left for somewhere else.¡±

Jah, just niimoodi on spekuleeritud, et Põhja-Korea tunneb, et tuleb praegu näidata tugevust arvestades Kim Jong Il tervist, ja ebakindlust suktsessiooniga.
Põhja-Korea "jangmadang"id (turud) on äkki kõige parem reklaam maailmas turumajanduse jaoks.


Over the last few years, the North Korean authorities have changed their policy on the market system many, many times in order to try and control society without provoking too much unrest. However, despite the authorities¡¯ efforts, the jangmadang has become a good place for the people to share information on domestic, or sometimes international stories, as well as to make money.
...
Since the famine of the late 1990s, the state-run circulation system had been all but non-existent due to the lack of commodities. Therefore, market transactions in the jangmadang spontaneously expanded in almost every field. The authorities accepted the inevitability of jangmadang activities within the sphere of the official economy
...
In October, 2005, the authorities declared a ¡°reversion to the national food distribution system¡± and banned people from trading in food, a regulation which is still technically in force. In December, 2006, they prohibited men older than 17 from trading, and in October of the following year they banned women under 49 from doing the same.
...
Eventually, in late-2008, the North Korean authorities had had enough. They decided to convert general markets into agricultural markets, contrary to the ineffectual 2005 ban on food trading.
...
In December of the same year, the authorities made their first move, banning the people from selling Chinese industrial products in the Pyongyang jangmadang as a model for the rest of the nation. To facilitate control over such products, they had them delivered directly to Seopo Station in Pyongyang without being unloaded in Shinuiju as normal.
...
Since January of this year, however, not a single market has been reformed. North Korean residents who trade with China have testified in interviews that the markets are working as normal. Previous regulatory measures have ended in failure, and this time another measure aimed at closing the jangmadang has seemingly fallen through.
...
The famine of the 1990s, then, was the end result of the protracted collapse of the food distribution system.

Thereafter, the North Korean people had to learn to survive by themselves. Many failed, but the jangmadang became an utterly indispensable tool for those who did not.
...
This fundamental change had a great effect on the people¡¯s mindset. They soon began to realize that they were no longer reliant on the Leader and the Party, but on their own ability.

Such changes inevitably raised people¡¯s reliance on the jangmadang and reduced their fear of authority, which led to vocal opposition at the merest hint of jangmadang regulation. Deferring the de facto closure of the jangmadang by six months strongly implies that people¡¯s reliance on the jangmadang was, and remains, so total that the authorities could do nothing to change it.
...
By 2009, the authorities seemed to have failed completely. This is simply because a planned economy is not able to substitute for the jangmadang, and, in North Korea, even the planned economy itself has come to depend so much on the jangmadang.

Were the jangmadang to close, then, the planned economy would be seriously affected.
...
However, the North Korean authorities have not officially given up yet on plans to convert the jangmadang into simple agricultural markets, but claim to have merely delayed them yet again. Therefore, the jangmadang in July should be closely watched in order to foresee the future of North Korea¡¯s ad hoc marketization.
...
A source from Shinuiju confirmed it. ¡°Many rumors of market closure have circulated, but they are working as usual,¡± the source said, ¡°Markets in Pyongsung are operating as well, so there are still many traders coming and going between Shinuiju and Pyongsung. Especially, as summer approaches, trade is increasing
...
The selling of prohibited items in the jangmadang and street markets has become the target of official, systematic inspection. As a result, the livelihoods of those lower-class merchants in the cities who are scraping by on what they can make in a day have been gravely affected.

Additionally, internal sources comment that more strongly regulating internal movements of people and cargo has added one more grievance for the citizens.

An inside source from Pyongyang described the situation in a phone conversation with Daily NK on the 3rd, "Backpacks carried around by the citizens have become particular targets of inspection by the People's Safety Agency. The plain-clothes agents have increased the frequency of their inspections over the peddlers carrying out commercial transactions from apartments surrounding the jangmadang."

In particular, he said, inspections by the PSA under the auspices of the No. 10 Checkpoint (a checkpoint of the National Security Agency) have been toughened. They open the luggage of the civilians and clean out their pockets. This has also raised the ire of the people."

Communist North Korea has embraced an eminently capitalist concept by airing on state TV what is likely to be its first beer commercial. Värvikas reklaam.
Huvitav, 0:44 pealt jookseb läbi tekst mis sisaldab väljendit ISO 9001. Ajupestud rahvale on konsultandid (mis maised?) suutnud kapitalismi järgi lehkava ISO serdi maha müüa? Vau.
Äkki oli tegelik point lauses a la "Sobib hästi juua õlleklaasist, mis on alusel, mis on trükitud värviga, mille tootmisel kasutati välismaal ISO 9001 standardit"? :)
Kuubal on kooperatiiviajastu, küll see Põhja-Korea ka murdub... Samas suur saab olema "kultuurikriitikute" nutt ja hala, kui maailma viimane paradiisriik ideoloogiliselt roiskuma hakkab!
Karum6mm,
Kuubal küll mingit kooperatiivindust ei soodustata minu teada. Nutt ja hala ja nälg endiselt. Hiljuti keelati inimestel ka põllumajandustoodangu kauplemine omavahel. Seal peab kaks venda jalad ees võimult lahkuma enne kui midagi muutub.
