N. Korean Delegation Angered by Protests
EFL: I must check KCNA this week. This could lead to some classic stuff. SEOUL, South Korea - A high-level delegation from North Korea arrived in Seoul for bilateral talks Tuesday and was immediately confronted by demonstrators who angered the visitors by displaying posters of their leader, Kim Jong Il, tied up in ropes. Kim Jong Il Poster Abuse. Wait'll the media get's wind of that. The North Korean delegates complained after their motorcade encountered the protesters on a road near the airport as they headed to a hotel for talks with the South Korean government, South Korea's YTN television reported. The protesters said they were in vehicles plastered with posters calling for Kim to be punished. In the North, Kim is the object of an official personality cult along with his father, founding ruler Kim Il Sung, and strict rules govern how their images are treated. Well, too bad. You ain't in the North. Posted by: tu3031 2005-06-21 |
