Congressman Rohrabacher exchange at House hearing with North Korean defector

California Congressman Dana Rohrabacher says he appreciates the insights of North Korean defector Thae Yong-ho, clarifying that the majority of the North Korea population does not know that dictator Kim Jun-un was educated in Switzerland, that broadcasts into the country are not aggressive enough to inform them, Thae says balloons of pamphlets and radios reached inside the country in a secretive way, but there could be satellite television transmission or small devices like smart phones or radios that North Koreans could watch South Korean or American television. Thae says the system is based on contradictions such as the freedom of belief in its constitution or the charter of the workers party, the teachings of Kim Jon-un, Kim Il-sung and Kim Jong-Il, that few churches exist in Pyongyang just for show with foreign audiences and not for the people.
