...reclusive leader than mere palace intrigue. North Korea's timid economic reforms have failed to revive a flatlining economy, fueling only a surge in prices. This, coupled with a still insufficient food supply, led two United Nations agencies to estimate last week that foreign aid will be needed to feed more than a quarter of the country's population next year...

...planes roll up and down the island's runway, and its cargo ships race in and out of port. Now Nauru can only afford to pay him and his fellow ministers, including the nation's president, $A100 a fortnight. Even the minister must rely on relatives catching fish to feed him and his family. It's a sorry fall from the 1960s and '70s when phosphate exports brought the 21-sq. km republic wild riches. Now the wealth, and most of the phosphate, is gone, squandered in poor investment decisions, mismanagement and corruption. An overseas property portfolio once worth...
