Rich NKoreans bribe univerity

‘Good Friends,’ a South Korean agency to help out NK people, said on Jan 28 that there is a flurry of cases reported that the regime's most prestigious university can be bribed to enter. According to the report, Kim Il-Sung University is often accepting students, not based on academic excellence, but on the amount of money parents are willing to pay.

In its regular news letter, the agency introduced the case of a high-ranking NK official who spent more than $1,000 to send his kid to the school. He was quoted as saying “all rich people or people high up there have their children accepted to school this way.” It is also reported that university life proves to be easier for this well-off kids, who easily buy off professors or school officers to obtain better grades.
