He died of 'natural causes' on his private train. Lol. You gotta love Stalinism.

According to the BBC he died from 'hard-work'.

Yer wan could barely contain herself.

now let's see how crazy his son is.

Apparently the heir is son No. 3 as the first 2 weren't deemed to be 'tough' enough to be leader. Interesting times for the Koreas ahead.

There are some pretty awesome video clips there. I am strongly convinced that the DPRK is the pinnacle of human society and I wish to contribute in whatever way I can, despite being a lowly product of western society.

Apparently young Dev,(E O Cuiv) is sending condolences on behalf of the Irish.

I read an amazing book on North Korea last year. Nothing to Envy by Barbara Demick. A truly incredible book which gives an insight into the lives of ordinary people in the country. I would highly recommend it as an insight into quite why North Koreans act as they do.

Hope that the North opens up to the west so we can sell them fast food and plenty of other crap that they don't need.

China needs a compliant N Korea at the moment, but once the transition of power has passed off smoothly, I would imagine that China will have a big role to play in incorporating N Korea into its economic sphere by financing massive growth there in the next decade.
