[Prayer] Kim Jong-un is being pressed for time!
“If the sanction continues, Kim Jung-un’s time table will get into trouble. First of all, Kim Jong-un proposed a five-year plan for national economic development three years ago. This plan is only possible when North Korea exports minerals to China and imports Chinese materials. Kim also proposed to complete the Wonju Karma Tourism Special Zone by October 10 this year. Only the framework of 170 buildings have been built. When the sanction continues, when will North Korea complete the construction and attract tourists? If the goal is not achieved within the deadline, Kim’s stature and credibility will be damaged significantly. Now it goes to a situation where North Koreans begin to think, ‘Everyday Kim keeps saying that the sanction will be lifted, but when in the world will the sanction be lifted?’ Kim is being pressed for time.”
This is what Tae Yong-ho, the former North Korean diplomat, shared in an interview with Shindonga newspaper. We pray that the aftermath of the failure of the Hanoi Talks will shake up the North Korean economy and further narrow down Kim Jong-un’s position, which makes a fundamental change in North Korea.
“For I am the LORD your God, who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar– the LORD Almighty is his name.”
