Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Six-nation talks on North Korea’s nuclear program ground to a halt last week, when officials froze $25 million in bank funds. Experts believe the Macau-based accounts serve as a lynchpin for Pyongyang’s official and underground economic activities. From ginseng exports to counterfeit cigarettes, we explore North Korea’s economy.
