NoKo Slashes Food Rations After Harvest Failure

The country suffered a famine in the mid-1990s believed to have killed as many as 3 million people.

 

GENEVA (Reuters) – Four in ten North Koreans are chronically short of food and further cuts to already minimal rations are expected after the worst harvest in a decade, the United Nations said on Friday.

Official rations are down to 300 grammes – under 11 ounces – per person per day, the lowest ever for this time of year, the U.N. said following a food security assessment it carried out at Pyongyang’s request from March 29 to April 12.

It found that 10.1 million people were suffering from severe food insecurity, “meaning they do not have enough food till the next harvest,” U.N. World Food Program spokesman Herve Verhoosel said.  more here

  1. Have always enjoyed (sirc) how the Soros funded Reuters (FairChilds) always has the means to finance and analyze down to this level to point out poverty and death, instead of directing those funds to help some to live.

  3. The only ambitious people in communism are at the top of the pyramid scheme – that’s why it’s always a fatally flawed concept, when the props and the crops fail.
