An honorable member of the Coffee Shop Has Just Posted the Following:
Singaporean photographer Aram Pan visited North Korea last year Gained permission for his 360 photography project after sending emails and faxes to North Korean contacts A BBC Panorama documentary led him to believe he would see lots of starving people Discovered healthy looking men and women shopping, playing volleyball and clocking off work at 6pm Believes that 'North Korea needs more friendly interaction with the outside world, even if it is just tourists' By Sarah Dean When a man from Singapore had his wish to visit North Korea granted, he braced himself for the scenes of 'barren lands' and 'really, really sad people' that he had seen via a BBC Panorama documentary. But what he found blew his mind - for all the right reasons. Inside the communist enclave in 2013, photographer Aram Pan witnessed bustling markets, men and women enjoying themselves at a Western looking water park and miles and miles of crops ready for harvest, shattering all of his illusions about what a holiday to North Korea would entail. http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2014/...17_964x625.jpg http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2014/...86_964x639.jpg Read the full article at http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...-citizens.html Click here to view the whole thread at www.sammyboy.com. |
