Support 'Amnesty International' campaign for jailed trade union activist!
"South Korean trade union leader and human rights defender Kim Jeong-woo risks receiving a further prison sentence at an appeal hearing on 4 April.

Pyongyang, March 11 (KCNA) -- The election of the deputies to the 13th Supreme People's Assembly took place successfully in the DPRK
The Central Election Committee Tuesday reported the results on the election held on Sunday. According to the report, the election was held according to the Rules on the Elections of Deputies to the People's Assemblies at All Levels. According to the election returns available, 99.97 percent of all the voters registered on the lists of voters across the country took part in the election and 100 percent of them voted for the candidates for deputies to the SPA registered in the relevant constituencies. This is an expression of the absolute support and trust of all voters in the DPRK government, the genuine people's power which serves the people and relies on them, and a manifestation of the steadfast will of the service personnel and people to consolidate the people's power as firm as a rock and accomplish the revolutionary cause of Juche... The Central Election Committee deliberated the reports on the election returns submitted by constituency election committees across the country and reported the names of 686 elected deputies to the SPA.
But as you can see... one constituency, incl. its deputy is missing:
Yep, number 111(*)! The constituency of the yukky fat motherf*cker, Kim Jong-un(1st secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea, first chairman of the National Defence Commission of the DPRK and supreme commander of the Korean People's Army etc, etc) himself...
Of course, it's self-evident(^^), that the name of the "peerless wizard" can't be mentioned/printed just between the other "ordinary" 686['North Korea said on Tuesday that all 687 candidates received 100% support...'(WSJ, 3.11)] elected deputies!!
