Seoul Allows Humanitarian Aid to N.Korea to Resume
The government said on Thursday it is allowing private South Korean groups to provide humanitarian aid for children and other vulnerable people in North Korea.
They never learn, do they...
"We decided to let private aid groups resume humanitarian aid, which was halted following the bombing of Yeonpyeong Island in November last year," the Unification Ministry said in a press release.

It has already authorized a shipment of W336 million (US$1=W1,097) worth of tuberculosis medication by the Eugene Bell Foundation. The medicine will be delivered to some 500 patients in six tuberculosis clinics in Pyongyang and Pyongan Province.

According to the ministry, seven aid groups have applied for permission to send W1.6 billion worth of thermal underwear, soy bean milk, bread and supplies to combat malaria.
