Dear MEL School’s
Topic Readers,
Happy campers? A
look at North Korea's summer camp
Only $270 for a
week long summer camp in an air-conditioned, fully secured and cared facility
with kids from other countries? Sounds like an awfully good deal, doesn’t it? Where
is it, though?
The heavily
government subsidized camp facility is in North Korea but it isn’t a labor camp
but an international children’s camp to host young students from the world.
This summer, 300 courageous parents have sent their children to this camp from
Russia, China, Vietnam, Tanzania and Ireland. Those children spent days on the
beach and in the playground and sometime with local children.
Surprisingly, the
camp is said to be open to any children in the world, even to Americans.
Enjoy reading and
learning what this children’s camp is about in one of the most secretive and
restrictive countries.
