North Korean higher education leader Kim Jong-un has ordered the execution of a North Korean official for “anti-party activities” after he complained about a lack of government support and resources, North Korean defector media reported.
Daily NK, an online media outlet run by defectors in South Korea, reported that the official, surnamed Park, who is in his 50s, had previously been selected to chair the North Korean Ministry of Higher Education’s “non-permanent implementation committee for the distance education law.
An investigation of the committee by the Organization and Guidance Department of the Workers’ Party revealed that Park had not made any real progress in promoting distance education in the country, and that the committee members only criticized the government when they gathered.
A North Korean source told Daily North Korea, “The non-standing committee, which was established in June last year, was investigated by the Organization and Guidance Department because there was no progress in its work, while some of its members criticized government policies.”
The official surnamed Park reportedly complained repeatedly to his superiors, who responded, “The party central committee has no instructions, so it stays as it is (and shuts up).” But the official continued to whine and finally Ja-woo.
