From prayer4northkorea:
    North Korea Encourages Workers to Join New Work-hard Campaign

    North Korea is calling on its people to participate in a campaign to work harder amid deepening economic difficulties.

    The North's introduction of a new prize, the "Songun Ponghwa," was first reported on Jan. 12 last year when the North Korean media covered a New Year's meeting of coal miners, urging all factories and companies in the country to compete to win the prize.

    Prayer: Pray that the people of NK will not be so easily fooled into such empty promises. Pray that the people will see that the root of their difficulties is due to inadequate and incompetent leadership.
