North Korea : a glimpse of paradise.
North Korea is making a splash again,in the last two weeks test-launching a rocket, declaring it would restart its nuclear program and throwing out U.N.monitors.The world’s most secretive country does not enjoy visitors. The few foreigners allowed in are presented only with propaganda, strictly banned from seeing the realities of the poor,totalitarian state.To peek into the daily life, I sneaked into North Korea via the river border separating China and N Korea. For some minutes, I was able to get afleeting look at the regime, which calls itself a « Social Paradise ».

Clara Rojas, une femme libre. par Thomas Samson/Made in Press
Le 23 février 2002, Clara Rojas a été enlevée par les FARCS.
Après avoir vécu l’enfer dans la jungle colombienne pendant six ans, Clara Rojas, l’ex directrice de campagne d’Ingrid Betancourt, se livre dans une autobiographie au titre très révélateur « Captive ». Un livre bouleversant où elle évoque avec pudeur et sincérité son calvaire, sa tentative d’évasion, sa dispute avec sa meilleure amie Ingrid Betancourt, son instinct de survie phénoménal, son accouchement douloureux mais aussi le miracle de la naissance de son fils Emmanuel. Un récit qui ne laissera personne dans l’indifférence.
