North Korea - It's About More Than Just Nukes

Kim Jong-Il has a great thing going in North Korea. Especially if you're him. But if you're not, well then...But don't worry about that, because this article, from the October 21 Korean News website, shows that the reach of North Korea extends far beyond petty interests such as nuclear weapons, missiles, and other Axis of Evil pursuits.

Compound fur Antiseptic Made

Pyongyang, October 20 (KCNA) -- The Korea Shoes Trading Company has developed a new kind of compound fur antiseptic. The antiseptic, made with raw materials abundant in the country, is applicable to various kinds of fur or leather. The fur and leather treated with the antiseptic can be kept as natural ones in safety for more than six months.

It, in particular, not only thoroughly prevents the surface of leather from being changed qualitatively but also protects fur.

Pak Nam Su, chief of the company, told KCNA that loss of hair does not occur among the fur treated with the antiseptic and the practical effectiveness has been fully proved through its long application to various units of the leather industry. The antiseptic is demanded in a large quantity by foreign countries, to say nothing of local companies.
