North Korea Today, Update 9/2013
Camp 22 is (probably) closed; most prisoners feared dead. Residents of nearby Hoeryong report that as the camp was closed for good, the authorities imposed a curfew, and thousands of prisoners were loaded onto trains in the middle of the night and sent away. Camp 16 was mentioned as one possible destination, but recent imagery of that camp shows no evidence of new housing to hold a significant number of new prisoners. Camps 14 and 25 have been expanded recently, but probably not enough to hold tens of thousands of people. Our job as Americans is to encourage our congressmen to vote for the bill H.R.1771 - North Korea Sanctions Enforcement Act of 2013.
Japan's Exhibit for Unit 731
The Korean government has agreed to show some weapons and other pieces at the Independence Hall to respect the victims of Unit 731. However, some victims like Ri Pong Jin believe the government should be doing more to compensate the victims of the horrible crimes. In addition, there was a discovery in 2010 of some victims of Unit 713. The bones are thought to be from up to 100 people and were discovered in a mass grave in 1989 during construction work.They bore the marks of saws and some of the skulls had drill holes and portions of the bone cut out. But the issue is so controversial in Japan that they have since been stored in a repository. Nurses were ordered to bury as many bodies as possible before the Allies came over.
