Via the unofficial Jim Rogers tracking blog, interesting commentary on North Korea:

Jim Rogers: Yes, and Korea, when it’s united, is going to be probably the most exciting country in the world for a decade or two. You know, this will be a country of 75 million people right on the Chinese border with vast, vast natural resources and disciplined, cheap labor up in the North, vast amounts of capital and expertise in the South, and they will be a powerhouse. They’ll run circles around the Japanese, who’ve got gigantic debt and a declining population. The Japanese are against it, by the way. The Japanese are very much against this sort of development, but it’s going to be very, very exciting. And the changes in North Korea – I mean, it’s where China was in 1980, where Myanmar was in 2010. I mean, it’s all happening right now before our eyes. The American press is full of always U.S. propaganda, as we all know, but no, it’s happening as we speak.
