Modern cities of 2026 in North Korea

I admire them.

Hopefully, Hanoi can be like Pyongyang in next 50 - 100 years.

What exactly do you admire about North Korea? The police state? The Potemkin Village that is Pyongyang?

That they allowed this Russian to film in North Korea makes the whole video suspect.

I'd rather live in a police state like North Korea or even Nazi Germany, i.e. a highly organized, disciplined society, than a primitive, filthy and chaotic "democratic" country.

Look at the biggest "democracies" in the world:

1. India
2. the US
3. Indonesia
4. Pakistan
5. Nigeria
6. Brazil
7. Bangladesh
8. Mexico
9. Japan
10. Congo DRC

Aside from Japan, no country in this list I want my country to be alike (not about people)

As a North Vietnamese, we know much about North Korea than most people in the world. Vietnam sent students to North Korea back in 1970s and the stories about life there were much more authentic than Western propaganda.

LOL.

Even though what you're saying is a fact, it will draw a barrage of attacks from many Indians.

To be honest, most parts of North Korea remain very poor. The side they present to the media and the public is always polished and attractive.

However, even in the poorest areas of North Korea, the surroundings are far cleaner and tidier than in New Delhi or Mumbai, and public order is excellent.
