North Korea revokes terms of operation at factory park
North Korea said on Friday it was cancelling all wage, rent and tax agreements with South Korea at a joint factory park just north of their heavily armed border that has become a focus of friction between the rival states.
The notice on the North's KCNA news agency came just hours after the South said it was requesting rare talks with the North over the Kaesong Industrial Park, which is their last major economic tie and a source of currency for the cash-starved North. (Reuters)
