For a number of years now we have been observing that North Koreans have been used to build
Namibian National symbols such as
the grandiose State House, a new Independence Museum and the Heroes acre
in our capital city, Windhoek.
Given the fact that Namibia is a free and democratic country, it is
ironic that we should
allow an oppressive, sinister regime such as North Korea, to
build our national symbols of freedom.
We have just heard that
North Korea has jailed and
possibly executed 33 Christians.
The
Washington Times (March 6th, 2014) citing the South Korean Daily Mail carried the following report,
“North Korea tyrant Kim Jong-un has
reportedly ordered that 33 Christians believed to be working alongside South
Korean Baptist missionary Kim Jung-wook be
put to death.

The South Korean
missionary — who was arrested last year — and his accomplices have reportedly
started 500 or so underground churches, Breitbart reported.
South Korean press
cited by The Daily Mail reported that Mr. Kim has
charged that the 33 are attempting to overthrow the government — the same
accusation that led to the execution of the North Korean leader’s uncle, Jang
Song-thaek, and all Mr. Jang’s
relatives.
The missionary aides
will be put to death in a cell of the State
Security Department, The Daily Mail reported.
Their announced
executions come just a day after reports surfaced that North Korea’s
Number Two, Choe Ryong Hae, hasn’t been seen at several recent public events he
normally would have attended — fueling talk that perhaps he’s the latest to be
purged from Mr. Kim’s
government.[1]”

Surely, this is an outrage! Namibia has a large professing Christian majority and we should not be silent on this matter. We know
of course that God will in His time, severely
judge North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un for the murder of
Christ’s people, but we also want to remind
our government that alliances with
such countries will not leave us unscathed from the wrath of
God. [Habakkuk 3:2]
