North Korea has successfully eliminated the hunger within its borders (which was caused by tradeblocks and purchaseblocks from the U.N.) Meanwhile, you promote ...aggressive, violent intervention for the people of the peaceful DPRK. Shouldn't you being trying to feed homeless South Koreans and fix their shantytowns?

On International Women’s Day, HRNK honors the women of North Korea, whose courage in the face of adversity inspire our work. In North Korea, discrimination and gender-based violence against women are widespread in all areas of society. North Korean women who escape to China often become victims of human trafficking, while those who are repatriated face conditions of extreme danger, some of them being subjected to sexual violence and forced abortions. #InternationalWomensDay #IWD2015 #hrnkus #EmpoweringNorthKoreanWomen #SupportNKWomen #RememberNKWomen #SaveNKWomen #ForgottenVictims #heforshe #wearehereforyou
