China-Japan-Koreas
Two Koreas will be reunified one day, says Kim Dae-Jung
2004-11-10
North and South Korea will be reunified one day but not the same way Germany was 15 years ago, former South Korean president and Nobel Peace Prize laureate Kim Dae-Jung said during a visit to Sweden on Tuesday. Speaking on the anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall, Kim said the two Koreas would have to undertake a slow reunification process, preceded by an economic collaboration so that the North Korean economy could grow to the same level as its more prosperous southern neighbour. "The South Korean economy is not strong enough to bear the burden of the North Korean economy," Kim said following talks with Swedish Prime Minister Goeran Persson in comments reported in Swedish by local news agency TT.

#10  The two Koreas will be reunited one day! Either by slowly bleeding the South into nothingness or by the North blasting the South back into the stone age.
eh, either one works for me.

#9  Joseph, dear, you may want to lurk a little longer before posting again. I don't think you've quite got the feel for the purpose of this blog. Fred isn't so much a member of the vast right-wing conspiracy, as an independent operator trying to figure out what the hell is going on in the world behind the scenes. Please bring your expertise to bear on that issue. We all know that communists are bad.

For example, my own expertise is that of a someone who has housewived/mothered in several different countries. What is yours?

#8  They've finally admitted it. We can feed the Norks, but I don't want to pick up that psych bill.

#2  And much like CLINTONISM, one of whose premises is that Communist-controlled FASCIST-RIGHTIST America = Communist-controlled FASCIST-RIGHTIST RUSSIA-CHINA, where Russia's new National Army still flys the Commie-era Banners of the old USSR; and like reunified Germany where the former East German Communist Party is now part of the Social Democrats, SOKOR's democratic establishment can look forward to the same intrusive elements. Better to let the NORKOR PARTY and the NORKOR STATE IMPLODE AND DIE, AS ITS GOING TO ANYWAY IFF ON ITS OWN, and then allow each "FORMER" PARTY-REGISTERED MEMBER back on a PERSON-BY-PERSON CASE BASIS, after proper and thorough investigation of their background. ITS NOT THE RIGHT THATS WILFULLY PERVERTING EACH AND ALL ISSUES, NOR RESISTING REFORMS, NOR FOR 9-11, vv forcing SOCIALISM-OWG upon America and the free World, and then afterwards to decide if reform of the Left is even necessary!?

#1  So, rather than rescue the NORKS after their govt collapses, Kim Dae-Jung wants the SKORS to slowly bleed to death economically on the installment plan?
