No Qualms: Are you kidding me? This is serious. Are there not other options? How can a sane human being eat his own child? Can't they just migrate? This is mind boggling, dammit. Migrate? What a joke! It's obvious you know nothing about North Korea. 1 Like |

We have held cases of cannibalism here in Nigeria, particularly in some eastern parts of Nigeria. The fact that we may not be hearing them often does not mean we are free from it. To the one who thinks Lizards, frogs are everywhere in the world, u really need to rethink. During drought, i wonder how it is possible to get sea food. Just a point of correction. kaysy: This is why African remains the best continent in the world, things like this never happens here and will never happen. sometimes over development is even a problem, just imagine the problem of these ones, something that is not supposed to even happen in the first place. na wa for some people oooo |

Famine in North Korea  What are some of the major causes of the famine in North Korea? The famine in DPRK is the result of the cumulative effects of a fractured economic infrastructure and inadequate food production. Over 22 million people must rely on food produced from the barely 20 per cent of arable land available. This has led, with unfortunate consequences, to planting crops on steep hillsides, destroying the forest cover and causing erosion. While the yield from planting on hillslopes is not great, the effects have been detrimental. Partly related, a cycle of floods (and drought) began in 1995 that led to the current famine-like situation in the country. Further, the country has not been able to earn sufficient foreign exchange to allow it to purchase substantial amounts of food abroad. It is estimated by the DPRK government that over 40 per cent of children under five are malnourished. A high proportion of pregnant women are also malnourished. Deteriorating social services, along with inadequate food distributions through the government public distribution system have led to the current crisis in the DPRK. Recent news reports warn that North Korea will run out of food in three months unless more international donations arrive immediately. How are you altering your programs in light of this and are governments responding to the urgency of this issue? The emergency operation remains heavily under-resourced despite a very recent contribution from the US of 100,000 metric tonnes (mt) of food aid. The current shortfall for the calendar year now totals about 150,000 metric tonnes. The main shortfalls are in cereals (140,000 mt) and Corn Soya Blend (CSB), which is an enriched blended food mainly targeted for nursery- school children. Owing to the food pipeline problems, WFP had to scale back its operations starting in May when we stopped distributing food to 675,000 secondary school children and were unable to begin the planned lean season distributions to 350,000 elderly people and 144,000 caregivers in child institutions and pediatric hospitals/wards. This measure has enabled us to give priority to our core beneficiary groups (i.e. orphans, young children and pregnant and nursing women), allowing distributions to them to extend farther into the third quarter. With the US 100,000 tonnes, the situation has been alleviated, though not solved. The dilemma faced is that, despite this contribution, it may be difficult to resume distributing food to the beneficiary groups that have been omitted unless we are reasonably certain we will have enough food for the most vulnerable core beneficiaries through to the end of the year. Who are the countries that are giving the most aid right now? Why are donors providing less aid this year than they have in previous years? The donor base for food aid has been diverse in the past few years, with the major contributors being the US, Japan, Republic of Korea (in that order). The EU, Italy, Germany, Australia, Canada, Sweden and Finland have also contributed, though lesser amounts. Also the ROK has given a lot bilaterally (i.e., directly to the DPRK government and not through WFP) while China is also known to have made major contributions bilaterally. http://asiasociety.org/policy/environment/water-and-food-security/famine-north-korea 1 Like |

This is one more reason why I loathe (and DREAD) the idea/possibility of reincarnation. You never know where you might find yourself next lifetime. . .and unfortunately, there's more than an 80% chance that you would end up in a pathetic situation. Imagine being born to parents that are so hungry, poor, dehumanised, and hopeless that they mate primarily because they need meat. |
