Although Recently, a few recent changes in North Korea’s economic system have attracted international interests, but there is much confusion remains as to the characteristics of North Korea’s recent policy changes and its future direction due to the lack of information. Therefore, in order to increase the 2003/04 understanding of readers in South Korea and abroad, KIEP is releasing The North Korea Development Report in both Korean and English. The motivation behind this report stemmed from the need for a comprehensive and systematic investigation into North Korea’s socio-economic conditions, while presenting the current status of its industrial K sectors and inter-Korean economic cooperation.
