North Korean Succession


Telegraph: Reports that North Korea has closed down its borders and recalled its Officers to duty after the death of Kim Jong - il. Thus folks expected the unexpected when it comes to North Korea, one can postulate that the new leadership with sabre rattle just to make clear that it’s a nuclear armed power, thus the South can expect some action, even if its only a few short range missiles hitting its outer islands. The new leader, the Great Successor will want to make an impression, what is known about him is very limited, in his late 20s, taught in Europe, likes US sports, as stated not a lot know about him. He was made a four star general in 2010, that should go down well with the older Generals, thus the new leader just might be a figurehead, its hard to say about North Korea folks, eve China, its big neighbour does not understand the place, what the chance for the rest of us, tricky times ahead folks.
