Sending Out Signals to Long-Isolated North Koreans http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn...122900579.html http://tinyurl.com/238c6k Sending Out Signals to Long-Isolated North Koreans Defectors Who Once Worked for Government of Kim Jong Il Now Broadcast From South of the DMZ By Francine Uenuma washingtonpost.com Staff Writer Sunday, December 30, 2007; Page A27 ..... The North's estimated 23 million people have little accurate information about the outside world. Listening to foreign news sources is illegal, part of a government effort to block infiltration of subversive ideas. But as more North Koreans buy low-cost radios brought in from China, violating that ban has become easier. ..... All told, Seoul has three privately run radio stations targeting the North: Open Radio for North Korea, Radio Free Chosun and Kim's FNK, the only one run by defectors, who are helped by a committed South Korean staff. Washington-based Radio Free Asia and Voice of America also broadcast to the North. |
