Book excerpt: Dozens of North Koreans are today at imminent risk of persecution, torture-even execution-owing to China's decision to forcibly repatriate them in stark violation of both the spirit and the letter of the 1951 Refugee Convention and the 1967 Protocol to which China has acceded. The international community-especially the United Nations, the Obama administration, and the U.S. Congress-must insist that China, at long last, honor its treaty obligations, end its egregious practice of systematic refoulement, or be exposed as hypocrites. Article 33 of the Convention and Protocol Relating to the Status of Refugees couldn't be more clear: Prohibition of Expulsion or Return ("Refoulement"): No Contracting State shall expel or return ("refouler") a refugee in any manner whatsoever to the frontiers of territories where his life or freedom would be threatened on account of race, religion, nationality, membership of a particular social group or political opinion. Today's hearing underscores an emergency that begs an immediate remedy. Lives are at risk. The North Korean refugees-disproportionately women-face death or severe sexual abuse and torture unless they get immediate protection. China has a duty to protect.

Book Synopsis Changes in Chinese Policy Toward North Korean Refugees Over the Last Two Decades by : Shinhea Eom
Download or read book Changes in Chinese Policy Toward North Korean Refugees Over the Last Two Decades written by Shinhea Eom and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: China does not view North Koreans who are staying in its territory as refugees and routinely deports them to North Korea. However, in the early 21st century, there have been some cases in which China has allowed North Koreans to leave China instead of sending them back to North Korea. This thesis examines how China's North Korean refugee policy has changed over the last two decades and whether international factors have influenced this policy. The results suggest that in the 1990's China gave priority to the repatriation agreement with North Korea. However, in the 2000's from its own experience with a number of foreign embassy intrusions by North Koreans, China has learned that the issue has potential for creating diplomatic problems with other countries. To avoid this conflict, China has tactically allowed North Koreans who have gained global attention to leave China, but otherwise still adheres its traditional deportation policy.

This book was released on 2018-02-25 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the Congress continues to look at ways to best apply maximum diplomatic and financial pressure on the regime of Kim Jong-un, this hearing will explore the strategic relevance of further pressing the Chinese Government to protect North Korean refugees and evaluate the impact of surging outside information into North Korea will have. Amid escalating tensions on the Korean Peninsula, we cannot forget those suffering under the North Korean regime and those North Korean refugees who are in China. North Korean asylum seekers are in imminent risk of repatriation, torture, sexual violence, forced abortions, hard labor, and even execution. China's repatriations of the North Koreans is a stark violation of both the spirit and the letter of the Refugee Convention and the 1967 protocol to which China has acceded. The Chinese Government has a lot to answer for. The U.N. Commission on Inquiry for North Korea Human Rights concluded that the Government of the People's Republic of China is aiding and abetting in crimes against humanity by forcefully repatriating North Korean refugees. As many as 90 percent of North Korean women refugees in China today fall prey to traffickers who will sell the refugees into sexual slavery or forced marriages. Labor trafficking is also pervasive. The Government of North Korea and the government and businesses in China, Russia, and elsewhere in the world profit from the trafficking of North Korean laborers.

This book was released on 2018 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What domestic and external conditions explain why the People’s Republic of China (PRC) at times intensifies its crackdown on North Korean border crossers? With the 1986 bilateral repatriation agreement between the PRC and the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) as the basis, China continues to deny North Korean asylum seekers refugee status and has instead labeled them as illegal economic migrants. Although data on North Korean refugees are limited, international organizations and media have observed specific periods such as March 2002-January 2003, February-April 2012, and July 2017-April 2018 when China intensified its Sino-North Korean border control efforts. Existing analyses focus on the refugees’ living conditions and legal status without providing an explanation of the underlying geo-political variables. This paper argues against the common misconception that China heightens border control efforts when Sino-North Korean relations are amicable. In contrary, intensified crackdowns occur when Beijing’s regional stability is threatened by Pyongyang’s pivotal provocations. Provocations raise the possibility of a potential regime collapse in North Korea and mass cross-border migrations of North Koreans into China. The three periods of intensified crackdowns as identified by international institutions and the media coincide with such cases—North Korea’s withdrawal from the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) in 2003, the rise of Kim Jong-un from 2011-2012, and the escalation of nuclear and missile tests in 2017. Such events, when accompanied by limited Sino-North Korean cooperation and heightened international scrutiny against North Korea, pose difficulties in China’s abilities to shield North Korea from a potential regime collapse.
Download or read book Escaping North Korea written by Mike Kim and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2010-05-16 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first of its kind, this book provides a unique inside look into the hidden world of ordinary North Koreans. Mike Kim, who worked with refugees on the Chinese border for four years, recounts their experiences of enduring famine, sex-trafficking, and torture, as well as the inspirational stories of those who overcame tremendous adversity to escape the repressive regime of their homeland and make new lives. One of the few Americans granted entry into the secretive "Hermit Kingdom," Kim came to know theisolated country and its people intimately. His North Korean friends entrusted their secrets to him as they revealed the government's brainwashing tactics and confessed their true thoughts about the repressive regime that so rigidly controls their lives.Civilians and soldiers alike spoke of what North Koreans think of Americans and war with America. Children remembered the suffering they endured through the famine. Women and girls recalled their horrific experiences at the hands of sex-traffickers. Former political prisoners shared their memories of beatings, torture, and executions in the gulags. With the permission of these courageous individuals, Kim now shares their stories and recounts his dramatic experiences leading North Koreans to asylum through the six-thousand-mile modern-day underground railway through Asia. His unflinching narrative exposes the truth about North Korea, stripping away the last veils that still shroud this brutal dictatorship.

Book Synopsis Escape from North Korea by : Melanie Kirkpatrick
Download or read book Escape from North Korea written by Melanie Kirkpatrick and published by Encounter Books. This book was released on 2014-05-13 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the world’s most repressive state comes rare good news: the escape to freedom of a small number of its people. It is a crime to leave North Korea. Yet increasing numbers of North Koreans dare to flee. They go first to neighboring China, which rejects them as criminals, then on to Southeast Asia or Mongolia, and finally to South Korea, the United States, and other free countries. They travel along a secret route known as the new underground railroad. With a journalist’s grasp of events and a novelist’s ear for narrative, Melanie Kirkpatrick tells the story of the North Koreans’ quest for liberty. Travelers on the new underground railroad include women bound to Chinese men who purchased them as brides, defectors carrying state secrets, and POWs from the Korean War held captive in the North for more than half a century. Their conductors are brokers who are in it for the money as well as Christians who are in it to serve God. The Christians see their mission as the liberation of North Korea one person at a time. Just as escaped slaves from the American South educated Americans about the evils of slavery, the North Korean fugitives are informing the world about the secretive country they fled. Escape from North Korea describes how they also are sowing the seeds for change within North Korea itself. Once they reach sanctuary, the escapees channel news back to those they left behind. In doing so, they are helping to open their information-starved homeland, exposing their countrymen to liberal ideas, and laying the intellectual groundwork for the transformation of the totalitarian regime that keeps their fellow citizens in chains.
Book Synopsis Forced Migration and Mortality by : National Research Council
Download or read book Forced Migration and Mortality written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2001-04-13 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years the number of complex humanitarian emergencies around the world has been steadily increasing. War and political, ethnic, racial, and religious strife continually force people to migrate against their will. These forced migrants create a stream of new challenges for relief workers and policy makers. A better understanding of the characteristics of refugee populations and of the population dynamics of these situations is vital. Improved research and insights can enhance disaster management, refugee camp administration, and repatriation or resettlement programs. Forced Migration and Mortality examines mortality patterns in complex human- itarian emergencies, reviewing the state of knowledge, as well as how patterns may change in the new century. It contains four case studies of mortality in recent emergencies: Rwanda, North Korea, Kosovo, and Cambodia. Because refugees and internally displaced persons are likely to continue to be a significant humanitarian concern for many years, research in this field is critical. This is the first book to comprehensively explore forced migration and mortality and it provides useful material for researchers, policy makers, and relief workers.

Download or read book The Hidden Gulag written by David R. Hawk and published by . This book was released on 2012-04-10 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second edition of Hidden Gulag utilizes the testimony of sixty former North Koreans who were severely and arbitrarily deprived of their liberty in a vast network of penal and forced labor institutions in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK or North Korea) for reasons not permitted by international law. By the time of the research for the second edition in 2010 and 2011, there were some 23,000 former North Koreans who recently arrived in South Korea. Included in this number are hundreds of persons formerly detained in the variety of North Korea's slave labor camps, penitentiaries, and detention facilities. Included in this number are several former prisoners who were arbitrarily imprisoned for twenty to thirty years before their escape or release from the labor camps, and their subsequent flight through China to South Korea. This newly available testimony dramatically increases our knowledge of the operation of North Korea's political prison and labor camp system. This second edition of Hidden Gulag also utilizes a recent international legal framework for the analysis of North Korea's human rights violations: the norms and standards established in the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court for defining and determining crimes against humanity, which became operative in July 2002. In addition to the testimony and accounts from the former political prisoners in this report, this second edition of Hidden Gulag also includes satellite photographs of the prison camps.
