Russian
Far East Mountain Construction Company (RFEMC) took up the project of railroad
between Russia and North Korea too.
=Professor Kondo=
54km (34 miles) between Rason (North Korea)
and Hassan (Russia), that is.
This railroad project reached an agreement
with Russia when Kim Jong-un’s father visited Russia two years in row from
2001.
The project was postponed soon. Then in
2008, Russia agreed to resume the project in exchange for using Port of Rajin,
which locates North East and close to the border of Russia, for free for 49
years.
In September 2013, the opening ceremony for
the railroad was held at Port Rajin.
=Journalist Nakamura=
At
the time, president of Russian railroad company “Yakunin” showed up for the
ceremony.
=Professor Kondo=
There was something strange about it. The
reason why it took 7 years from the beginning of the project was because North
Korea was reluctant to share the project fee with Russia. Russia had a bad
experience of unpaid 10 billion dollars by North Korea before so the project
was ceased soon. However, even after when Russia began to resume the project,
it still took 5 years to complete despite the facts that the length of railroad
was only 54 km (34 miles) long and there was even leftover of railroad which
was built by Japan during the annexation. It just seems so strange that it took
five long years for that.
=Journalist Nakamura=
Hehehe.
=Professor Kondo=
Why
are you laughing? You must have something to say.
=Journalist Nakamura=
Okay. I repeat this. The forte specialty for
Russian Far East Mountain Construction Company is to dig underground tunnel. Probably
they made a tunnel under the railroad for Kim Jong-un’s family member to escape
to Russia in case under the threats of their lives.
=Professor Kondo=
I see! Now it makes perfect sense why it
took five long years! In addition to that, under the name of building a
railroad, US spy satellite wouldn’t have paid attention to it.
=Journalist Nakamura=
That’s
right! By building the railroad, not only North Korea could increase the trade
with Russia, but also increase the security of Kim Jong-un. It was exactly killing
two birds with one stone.
< Dumped by China >
=Professor Kondo=
This
is another episode from the era of Kim Jong-un’s father. One of highly ranked
former officials escaped from North Korea informed me before about the escaping
root of Kim family from North Korea when in emergency.
He said that there was about 60km (37.5
miles) long of a secret underground road from Kim’s house to Port Nampo which
was facing Yellow Sea. From Port Nampo, Kim family was to exile to China via
Air or ship. However, current Chinese President Xi and Kim are in a feud now so
it is unlikely that China will accept Kim family. So this secret root has to be
eliminated from his choice.
=Journalist Nakamura=
That’s
why Kim Jong-un made the Russian root. To tell you the truth, there is even
more story about the Kim’s banishment to Russia.
=Professor Kondo=
What is it?
=Journalist Nakamura=
Let’s suppose North Korea was attacked by
US and Kim family somehow managed to escape from North Korea using underground
tunnel in Rajin. From there Kim family would go to Navy Port in Vladivostok.
However, Kim will never feel safe as far as he is in Far East because in any
moment he can be captured by US Army. And even for Russia, it isn’t ideal to protect
the dictator in the eyes of international community.
=Professor Kondo=
That’s true. I remember Chinese government used to
consider accepting Kim Jong-un’s father’s exile when George Bush Jr was
President of US and called North Korea “An axis of Evil”
At that time, Chinese government came to
conclusion of employing “Fan Jang Yeop method”
In 1997, a secretary Fan Jang Yeop, ranked
26th in North Korea, escaped to Beijing China and applied an exile at South
Korean consulate. Chinese government accepted to protect him under the
conditions that he had to leave China within three months heading for countries
other than US and South Korea.
Same wise to Kim family. Only three month
stay was approved by China. Kim was treated as a burden by China after all.
=Journalist Nakamura=
Russia must have considered about it too.
