Two South Korean activist groups on Wednesday sent a batch of 100,000 propaganda leaflets into North Korea from the Bridge of Freedom at Imjingak Park in Paju, Gyeonggi Province on Wednesday, urging the North to repatriate South Korean abductees.
Ten members of the Family Assembly Abducted to North Korea and the Fighters for Free North Korea sent 10 large balloons skyward, each carrying 10,000 leaflets.
The leaflets carried the names of South Korean civilians and prisoners of war thought to be held in the North, as well as comments on the health of North Korean leader Kim Jong-il, his family tree and other messages. Also attached to the leaflets were hundreds of Chinese 10-yuan bills and U.S. one-dollar bills.
Choi Sung-yong, president of the FAANK, said the leaflets are expected to be distributed in the central region of North Korea. We will continue our efforts until the North changes.Ħħ
