Join the Campaign for North Korea




China and Laos both seem to consider their own power more important than saving North Korean citizens.They sustains their relationships with North Korea so refuse to consider North Korean Defectors refugees and sends any refugees found back to North Korea where they face certain death.



One of the easier steps that can save lives today is getting the neighbouring countries to accept North Korean defectors as refugees. This not only saves lives but tells the North Korean government that it doesn’t have power over it’s neighbours and strengthens it’s opposition. It is also unlikely to cause any military threats on North Korea's behalf.

Sign this petition to campaign against the countries that send back NK defectors

And now just to remind you that whilst these are serious issues they can still be laughed at:
"I think China will soon tell that pudgy little creep with the bad haircut and the binoculars to sit down and shut up."
