i'm sure the south koreans are making as much of it as they can. they will only say that he was a colonel, that he had direct control over various spying operations, also involved in cyber espionage. the fact that they have confirmed it is itself significant. they very rarely confirm such things. i think there is a sense here that the south korean administration wants to show that there are cracks apapg in the north korean system, that there was this defect and that we are seeing more details released about the 13 restaurant workers as well and that this is, from south korea's point of view, a result of the sanctions of the get tough policy with north korea, when it comes to the business of carrot and stick relations, it is the stick that achieves results. we are getting more details about 13 defectors defecting en masse from a restaurant in china. we understand that they came from the eastern port city and travelled through thailand, laos and then onto south korea and that will be of concern to north korea because it is a big foreign currency earn
