Radio broadcasts into North Korea have been cut by around 80 per cent, leaving the nation’s citizens even more isolated from the world as authorities make the smuggling of unfavourable information into the country a “top priority."
Following several changes in North Korea, including turning off propaganda loudspeakers on their southern border, observers are hopeful that greater ties could be forged with the country's southern neighbours.
The clampdown on foreign broadcasting, which has seen at least six stations closed, has been aided by cooperation with the South. But alongside other increased restrictions, outreach has become more difficult for Christians, according to Open Doors.
