Mission Impossible?

Propaganda and their people Kim Jung Il and his recent, 5 top authorities that signed "Loyalty Pledge regards Kim Jung Il's dictatorship" holds the power and most of the values of the whole country. They not only expressed that Kim Jung Il is "the next generation's hero with out standing political skills," but claims to feel pleasured to join him to "achieve the final victory in the battle." The five authorities promised and pledged, "Our Great and the Greatest leader Kim Jung Il, will create the future history and we will trust his decisions." in the loyalty oath. (Kim Jung Il and North Korea's 5 top authorities signs loyalty pledge) Like this Loyalty Oath above, majority of the people in North Korea believes and respects Kim Jung Il as "the God of North (Korea)." Under this circumstances, it is not only hard for South Korea cooperate with these believes but also hard to influence them. Like Stalin and the Russian Revolution, Kim Jung Il uses and controls over the whole media controlled in North Korea. (Look at the picture on your right) This is a satellite photo taken at night from outer space. And look at North Korea. The only light shining upon is its Capital Pyeongyang. It is were Kim Jung Il hold power and controls what source of information comes and goes.(North Korea is Dark) This is why, people of North Korea doesn't know how the world outside is like. Most of the newspapers are produced within the limited amount of information, mostly propaganda that creates North Korean's minds. Their one-way influence and people's high respect on Kim Jung Il is just a small component that stops unification.

__Economics __

Today the huge gap between North and South Korea’s economic status is another blockage of unification. Compared to the failing rate of economic growth of North Korea and its average income per year is a large gap between South Korea’s national income of $10,000. For example, we can compare this with the German Unification: West Germany was one of the world-wide economical countries of the world; East Germany was a socialist state with the income a 1/3 of West Germans. The West earned a GNP of $30000 while the East earned GNP $3000 per person. However, after the unification in 1990, West economy starts to quiver ; It took 100 million universally, and until today Germany is still recovering. The sudden drop fall of West Germany's economy, despite that they were the 3rd richest country in the world, cannot handle this big economic issue. (Chousun - North Korea's negative economical growth) "Than how can South Korea handle this?" Probably when unified, South Korea will have to support North Korea with food, and other needs like we do today. Samsung Electronics will clasp due to the high rate of tax(we will have to pay 12 times or more raised tax than today), and lead to a stopping point on Korea's general "exportation." Which will bring the consequences of the same economical situation we had in 1960's. Also, British Economical spread agrees with the fact that, “Unification will challenge South Korea's economics; but with the economical ability that South Korea holds right now, the market will collapse in matter of seconds.” (Asia's Economics - South Korea should be prepared for unification of North Korea and it's fall on economics)

Military  North Korea, after the Korean War, plans and creates powerful weapons to invade South Korea rather than boost the economy. Now due deterioration, stockpile is aging while South Korea’s massive development, in economics and militarism threatens North Koreans. From the fear and competition, North Korea secretly develops atomic bomb and nuclear weapons that have been experimented only. Further more, to improve the performance of the old weapons, they create made a lot of cheap, chemical weapons that saves money and kill a lot of people. (Salter, Christopher. __North Korea (Modern World Nations)__ The Civil war effect on both sides to increase the army, police, intelligent agencies and national organizations; before only 100,000 people attended the army of both North and South Korea; from the end of each war and till today, there are roughly about 600,000 people in the military. The Demilitarized Zone between North and South Korea, itself occupies, 1.5 million people regularly. The army was and is the foundation to support the Korean government. Fixation system strengthens the division of the army, police, information, inspection agencies and organizations that increase the role; regarding the two Korea's into the country under strict bureaucratic control. (South and North Korea’s military forces comparison and resolutions)

Nucleic Bomb Today, it has been reported that North Korea is testing, again, for a successful launch of Nucleic Bomb, stronger and faster. Now the world is under a huge red alarm of stopping North Korea from developing this bomb. It is a threat to the whole world. Why are they so alarmed? Only 5 out of the many different countries (America, Russia, China, France and England) are under NPT's legal account for holding Nuclear Weapons. However, if North Korea succeeds to develop a nuclear weapon, the fact that North Korea holds this weapon isn't threatening, but that fact that these invented weapons maybe sold to countries (ex. Arab) frightens the world. If the nuclear weapons are in hands of Arab's there will be a high possibility of World War III to irrupt and break world peace. Nuclear weapon is a strong threatening tool for North Korean’s to advertising how strong their nation and country is and sending out the message, "since we have Nuclear bombs watch out. Don't even think about interrupting us." But why does this stop us from unification? Since the world knows that if North and South Korea unifies, we will have a sudden rise in military power, they will be afraid of us. Therefore, due to this fear of gaining power, they are opposing the unification.
