| “Her husband was a tall, slender, handsome man…as soon as they arrived, Kim Jong-il introduced us. ‘This is my younger sister, Kim Kyong-hui. This is Madame Choi.

I’m Chang Song-taek.”–Choi Eun-hee “…he was clever and opportunistic in his own self-interest.”– Hwang Jang Yop on when he met Jang at KISU The election of Jang Song Taek as NDC Vice Chairman on 7 June 2010 reaffirmed his status as one of the regime’s most important personalities. For the time being Jang remains as one of KJI’s primary political managers. Mr. Jang’s four-decade career, charismatic personality and his personal ties across Party, government and the military make him the ideal manager of a hereditary succession campaign. He is also the regime’s most viable option, should the accession of Kim Jong Un become unpalatable. |
