Modern cities of 2026 in North Korea

[AViet]

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.

It is bizzare because Indian in the past loved both Nazi Germany and Stalin. Now there is even Indian politician named Stalin.

They hate North Korea not because they have any reason for hatredn, but because their masters UK and US hate North Korea.

I have watched many footage about North Korea of cities other than Pyongyang as well as rural area.

By West European standard, they are poor. By East European standard, they are normal. By Indian standard, they are highly organized and developed.

They are poor and that is coming from developing Vietnam.

You know nothing about North Korea. You see discipline and organization and think it's a great place to live. Of course, Pyongyang is a great place to live if you are lucky enough to live there. Only elite members of the Workers' Party are allowed to live in the capital; the rest must live elsewhere. And if you want to travel to Pyongyang, you need permission.

What kind of life is that? Who wants to live like this? Forget that there's no electricity in the country except for the military and Pyongyang. Or that food security is always an issue.

No wonder nearly 35,000 North Koreans have defected from the country. I mean, if things were that great, it would be the other way around. But then again, they are not keen on foreigners.

You have to be daft to live in North Korea.

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

What do Indians have to do with it? Who in their right mind would want to live in North Korea? I don't see anybody from any country begging to emigrate to North Korea.

Your knowledge of India is like North Korea. It's very poor.

You probably have never been to Slovenia or Croatia. Their living standards is comparable to Central Europe. North Korea can’t feed itself. It relies on food imports from China. NK survival relies on how to get money. In times when there is no money to buy food, half of population will starve to death.

If he lived in North Korea, or a North Korean like state like he wishes, would he even be able to get online?
