Why N.Korea Values Its Restaurants Abroad
2010-12-16
Because they make money, and that money gets back to Kimmie's slush fund.

The Norks will feed people abroad but won't feed them at home.

#3  In Qingdao, China, a North Korean restaurant was forced to close for months because its staff absconded. Last week, the manager the Okryugwan in Nepal apparently fled to India with a stash of dollars that were supposed to be sent to the North.

I'm sure managing the local McDonalds is no picnic, but unlike the guys at Kimmie's Big Boy, at least "defection" isn't among the HR issues listed in the company handbook.
