Policy Forum 03-45A: Seoul’s Secret Success

In his essay, Aidan Foster-Carter, honorary senior research fellow in sociology and modern Korea at Leeds University in England, asserts that the numbers regarding North Korean trade as reported by South Korea’s Korea Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Energy are distorted. On the surface, it appears Japan and China are North Korea’s main market, but closer scrutiny of the number reveals how much inter-Korean trade is in fact transpiring. In the first half of 2003, North-South Korean trade totaled US $269 million, comprising $112 million in Northern exports and $157 million in imports. South Korea is well on track to gain the pole position of Pyongyang’s top market, and second place in trade overall. So why obfuscate it?
