North Korea Must Reveal What Happened
in Ryanggang
The
Chosun Ilbo | September 12 2004
There were reports that a massive explosion took place
at Kim Hyong-jik County, Ryanggang Province, North Korea on Thursday. At
present, it seems that the explosion was not caused by a nuclear test, but
there is a high possibility that it is somehow connected to military purposes
since it took place in a mountainous region 1,500 meters above sea level
around the Sino-Korean border where there are few civilians living and many
war plants and missile bases nearby. In addition, there is talk that the
explosion was even bigger that the one that took place during the Ryongchon
Station accident last April. Some even raised suspicion that it may have
to do with a nuclear test following the report that a mushroom cloud over
3km in diameter was seen. Others said that it may have been the activity
of anti-government forces within the North. The Japanese media has reported
that it is likely connected to a nuclear test.
North Korea needs to explain what caused the explosion
and what the current development is not to add fuel to the fire amid a series
of reports of abnormal signs. Actually, there have been rumors in the U.S.
that a shocking incident would occur in North Korea in October and a major
explosion test would take place in a remote mountain village near the Gaema
Plateau.
The U.S. New York Times also reported that North Korea¡¯s
moves related to nuclear development have raised concern. North Korea should
not try to simply dismiss those reports and assumptions in the international
community because it would not help the country itself, which needs the
international community¡¯s support, as well as peace on the Korean
Peninsula.
Another worrying thing is whether the Korean government
has been effectively gathering even a little information on the North¡¯s
moves and cooperating with neighboring countries. The National Security
Council standing meeting was held three days after the massive explosion
in question and that was the time the defense minister reported the accident.
Not only that, some reports say the government has not even secured a satellite
picture yet. Watching all this, how can the public feel reassured?
