North Korea's New Enemy
How does one reach into the most closed nation on earth, a place that has been isolated from the outside world since the 1950s?
Modern technology has provided new ways of reaching people, including one that most of us use multiple times a day. “The most powerful tool for evangelism today inside North Korea is the cellphone,” a VOM partner said.
North Koreans can purchase black-market cellphones from China for the equivalent of about $100, and three hours of call time costs about $30 more. The phones use Chinese cell towers for signals. But North Koreans who use these illegal phones run great risks. Getting caught with one of these phones can result in large fines, confiscation of the phone and possibly even prison.
