The reason North Korea is poor is simple.
North Korea will continue to be poor. The reason is that it doesn't work. If you work, you will become a little richer. Come to think of it, there are some people who say they can't work because there are no jobs in North Korea, but don't be foolish. There will be jobs because there are people. Because your job is to help people. In other words, there is no work because you don't have that feeling or idea. In other words, the hopeless aspect of communism is that it lacks the concept of service.
1 in 5 men is a military man
It is said that 5% of North Korea's population are military personnel. If there were an equal number of men and women in the population, 10% of men would be military personnel. If you exclude children and the elderly from that number, I wonder if about one in five men are military personnel. In other words, these are people who do not engage in productive activities. 20% of working men do not produce. Even if people work in factories, leaders, section managers, and department managers are said to be in a class society where they don't work at all. In other words, even among people involved in production, those above a certain class do not work. College graduates and other elites are enthusiastic about manufacturing missiles that have no place in the North Korean economy.
Economy similar to barter
North Korea has a primitive economy that is roughly equivalent to barter. Simply put, if you can exchange food and daily necessities, you are considered lucky. For example, when exchanging soap for a single radish, paper money is merely used as an intermediary. In other words, the general rule is that if there is a shortage of radish, there will also be a shortage of soap.
Food aid does not add to the economy
What will happen if we provide food assistance here? It does nothing economically other than to alleviate starvation for a certain period of time. This is because food is meaningless unless producers produce it and exchange it in the market.
In other words, North Korea is poor because it doesn't work.

A sports festival that destroyed North Korea.Mayday Stadium was built at this time.
One of the reasons why the North Korean economy has fallen into the abyss is the 13th World Youth Student Festival.North Korea is also planning to host the Olympics in Seoul, but Samaranch, the president of the IOC, visited Pyongyang and returned home saying, anyway we will consider some opportunity but I don't know when.
The World Youth Student Festival is a sports, culture and art festival held in socialist countries.This was the first time that parent and children had clashed head-on over Kim Jong Il's proposal to hold other sports festival event against the hosting of the Korean Olympic Games.As a result, the decision was made in the process of transferring power to his son, Kim Jong Il.
The May Day Stadium (now a stadium where mass games and missile exhibitions are held) and hotels have been built, attracting 12,000 people from other countries for free.Most of North Korea's GNP was invested in the event.The huge state-funded festival put the country's finances in jeopardy.Since then, North Korea's domestic distribution has stopped, causing a large number of people to starve to death.
Hamgyeongnam-do, which earned 60 to 70 percent of North Korea's foreign currency at that time.It is said that the first people to starve to death were those who worked in a mine in Hamgyeongnam-do.
North Korea's country's huge tilt was due to the huge investment in the sports festival.It was a product of ostentatiousness against Korea.
Biden administration sanctions Russia and North Korean individuals for North Korean missile launch on the 11th.
[Washington, 12th Reuters] --The US Treasury will impose sanctions on 6 North Korean individuals, 1 Russian individual, and 1 group following a series of missile launches by North Korea on the 12th. Announced. He is said to have been involved in the procurement of weapons development supplies from Russia and China.
According to South Korean troops, North Korea launched a projectile that could be a ballistic missile on the 11th. This is the second time North Korea has launched a projectile this year since the 5th. In addition, North Korea's state-run Korean Central News Agency reported on the 12th that it succeeded in conducting a hypersonic missile launch test in the presence of Kim Jong-un, the chairman of the Workers' Party of Korea. Kim Jong Un has officially inspected the missile launch since March 2020.
The Ministry of Finance explained that the sanctions were aimed at preventing the advancement of North Korea's weapons of mass destruction (WMD) and ballistic missile programs, as well as stopping attempts to spread weapons technology.
Nelson, Under Secretary of Finance (Terrorism and Financial Information), said in a statement that North Korea is taking measures against the use of foreign representatives to illegally procure products for weapons, and North Korea's recent missile launch is "international. Further evidence that banned programs continue to move forward despite society's demand for diplomacy and denuclearization. "
"The events of the last few days underscore our belief that dialogue is needed to make things happen," US State Department spokesman Price said in a regular press conference, and the U.S. government continues to work with North Korea. He said he was aiming for diplomatic negotiations.
The ministry accused the sanctions of being the result of six ballistic missile launches since September last year, all of which violated a UN Security Council resolution. did.
It is said that one Russian-based North Korean national, one Russian national, and one Russian group, which were subject to sanctions, conducted "activities and transactions related to the spread of weapons of mass destruction and their means of transportation." I was determined.
One of the North Korean nationals is a representative of the North Korean organization involved in weapons development in Vladivostok, and is said to have been involved in the procurement of communication-related equipment from Russia.
In addition, four representatives of the agency's China branch and one Russian-based North Korean have also been sanctioned. He was involved in the procurement of alloy steel, software, and chemical products.
Anthony Ruggero, a sanctions expert from the former Trump administration, said the new sanctions were a "good start" and that the Biden administration needed to continue to increase sanctions pressure on North Korea. It pointed out.
This measure will freeze the sanctioned US-related assets and completely ban transactions with the sanctioned person.
The point of interest is sanctions on individuals. We knew that Russian engineers were involved in the development of North Korea's nuclear missiles, but we are trying to identify individuals.
North Korea launched its third missile test this year on the 14th, the missile falled outside Japan's EEZ.
Yesterday, the 14th, North Korea conducted its third missile test of this year. This ballistic missile appears to have flown approximately 400km and landedoutside Japan's EEZ. North Korea has frequently carried out provocations this year. The move is seen as retaliation for sanctions imposed by the United States on the 12th. Why doesn't North Korea stop its missile tests in the first place?
It is said that one in five people in North Korea is a military member. It is an army that protects the Kim dynasty. Kim Jong-un says the missiles are for the country's self-defense, but in reality they are nothing more than an army under a dictatorship. North Korea continues to suffer from chronic food and resource shortages. Even if the people starve to death, a large amount of national funds will be spent on missile development. It is easy to notice this contradiction when you consider how many people will be saved by the cost of missile development.
One in five people, or 20% of the population, are not engaged in production-related industries. If there is no war, the main jobs of military personnel are training and security. In other words, the remaining 80% will be the labor force that supports North Korea's GDP. 20% of the poor people are not engaged in production. Most of the North Korean soldiers are said to be malnourished. A North Korean soldier who escaped from Panmunjom to South Korea was shot multiple times from behind by North Korean soldiers and underwent surgery in South Korea, where a large number of parasites were discovered in his intestines. .
North Korea's economy is no longer at a level where it can run a country, and its soldiers do not have the stamina to carry out operations. This led to the development of low-cost nuclear missiles. No matter how many soldiers they feed, they no longer have the ability to conduct land battles.
North Korea will not stop nuclear missile tests for these reasons. There is no longer an option for the military to protect the country by stopping nuclear missiles.
North Korea does not stop missile launches.The purpose is just to develop nuclear weapons to protect King Kim Jong Il regime.
At a press conference after 9 a.m., Matsuno said, "North Korea fired a ballistic missile on the morning of June 30 and reached a maximum height of about 2,000 kilometers, which is believed to have fallen outside Japan's EEZ= exclusive economic zone."Chief Cabinet Secretary Matsuno said, "North Korea fired a ballistic missile eastward from the interior of North Korea around 7:52 a.m. today.We are currently investigating the details, but if the missile is a normal trajectory, it is estimated that it flew about 2,000 kilometers high, 30 minutes long, and 800 kilometers away from Sea of Japan's exclusive economic zone."
Regarding Matsuno's remarks to reporters that the launch was "high-intensity," a senior Foreign Ministry official said, "I think that's what he said about the missile.In other words, the threat is growing.North Korea is likely to resume ICBM= intercontinental ballistic missile tests or nuclear tests in the future, as it seems to be launching various missiles on a trial basis."
The other day, Matsukawa, a former defense parliamentary secretary, replied, "North Korea has a clear target point, and I think is just proceeding with the plan there."Kim Jong-un is trying to build a North that will protect the Kim Jong-un regime forever, and if other countries criticize the missile launch, he will respond with provocations.Matsukawa's statement may be closer to the truth because nothing will change after the U.N. Security Council sanctions resolution.
North Korea may just be using criticism from other countries as a diplomatic strategy.You should think that they will not stop until they reach the target point of nuclear and missile development.
Why did the Zainichi issue arise? South Korea refused to return home and the issue of residents in Japan will remain forever.
South Korea refuses to return, North Korea welcomes return
South Korea tried to obstruct repatriation project
It is the right of citizens to return to their home country
South Korean government refused to normalize diplomatic relations
An abnormal situation in which one's own citizens are cut off
Japanese repatriation project
Japan's ongoing repatriation project
The project to repatriate Koreans residing in Japan after the war was pushed forward despite opposition from the South Korean government. North Korea has declared that it will pay for the cost of the ship to return home. He said he would welcome acceptance.
Many of the people who came to North Korea from Japan were postwar immigrants who came to Japan after fleeing the Jeju April 3rd Incident and the Yeosu-Suncheon Incident in South Korea. The repatriation project was carried out jointly by the Japanese Red Cross Society and the Korean Red Cross Society.
The South Korean side opposed this repatriation project, extended the detention of Japanese fishermen, cut off trade relations, sent terrorist agents, attempted to bomb the Niigata Japanese Red Cross, and sabotage plans were revealed one after another. It was revealed that plans included the assassination of Japanese personnel involved in the repatriation project and the bombing of railway tracks heading to Niigata Port.
South Korea opposed the repatriation project because it received international criticism for refusing to return and North Korea accepting it.
Mass repatriation will only be possible if the governments of both countries cooperate with those who wish to return home, based on the humanitarian principle of international law, which is the freedom to choose their place of residence. Furthermore, post-war disposal is based on the aim of restoring things to their original state.
The Japan-Korea Status of Forces Agreement was concluded in the 1965 Agreement. When Japan raised the issue of how to repatriate Koreans living in Japan when diplomatic relations were normalized, the South Korean government again refused. In response to this, an agreement was reached that allowed them to reside in Japan, which was the Japan-Korea Status of Forces Agreement.
In other words, the Korean government has cut down and abandoned its own people. As a result, it was North Korea that supported the Korean Peninsula residents who remained in Japan. To this day, Korean schools continue to receive support from North Korea. As a result, Chosen Chongren and Korean schools became North Korean.
This is not an ordinary country's decision. This is an abnormal situation in which Japan refuses to allow its own citizens to return. Incidentally, Japan's repatriation project was carried out with the cooperation of the Japanese and Chinese governments.
The repatriation of Japanese people from Manchuria began in 1946, with more than one million Japanese returning from ports in China. After the Communist civil war, the People's Republic of China and Japan were forced to suspend diplomatic relations, and the mass repatriation was ended. After the normalization of diplomatic relations between Japan and China, the removal of orphans left behind in China began in 1981, and more than 2,000 children were able to return to Japan.
Remaining orphans were forced to walk for tens of kilometers and were not allowed to stop their march, as the departure time and number of crew members for the ship were set when the Japanese were to be evacuated. Many women and children were unable to walk and were separated from their families, becoming Chinese wives through human trafficking or being adopted.
Japan's Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare still provides temporary repatriation assistance, permanent repatriation assistance, local settlement support, and self-reliance assistance.
