N. Korea’s Kim berates officials over storm damage FMTNews FMTWorld
North Korean leader Kim Jong-un blamed officials for the extensive damage in Anbyon County in the east.
Tropical Storm Khanun, which battered Japan before taking a circuitous route towards the Korean peninsula, moved across North Korea early Friday bringing heavy rains to the South. Visiting flooded farmlands in Anbyon County in the east of the country, Kim said the region suffered more damage than other areas “entirely due to extremely chronic and irresponsible work attitude” of local officials, the Korean Central News Agency reported.
As the storm approached the peninsula, the North carried out “a dynamic campaign to cope with disastrous abnormal climate” and called for measures to minimise damage to the country’s economic output.
