1 in 3 North Korean children under 5 are malnourished

"The United Nations World Food Program says one in three North Korean children under the age of 5 are malnourished. More than one in four people need food aid, the agency says, but only about one in 17 will get it this year, partly because donors are reluctant to send aid to a country that has insisted on developing nuclear weapons."

This is a really great piece on North Korea and its policies & its population.
