North Korea’s next ruler? Secret family dynasty intrigues outside
Friday, December 23rd, 2011 5:34:37 by Umair HassanThe world’s most secretive country and ruled by mysterious family, North Korea is mourning over their beloved ruler Kim Jong-il, but outside its borders, no one has clear idea regarding the new commander in chief of communist Korea.
Many political analysts believe that Kin Jong-un will be heading the troubled country. But some inside sources have speculated in the media that despite the death of Kim Jong-il, two elder sons of his are absent from the scene and only Kim Jong-un, the youngest
one is appearing in the media.
This raises too many questions as where are other two brothers of Kim Jong-un?
People who have studied deeply about Kim dynasty and those who have spent too many years in North Korea are suggesting as this might an intrigued situation within the family.
Firstly, these analysts have pointed out North Korea’s first lady Kim Ok, who is also considered one of Kim Jong-il’s closest aides as she arrived at the Kumsusan mausoleum in Pyongyang, where Kim’s corpse has been on display in a glass coffin.
The story unfolds as Kim Jong-un’s own mother died of breast cancer in 2004 and two other brothers of his are Kim Ok’s sons not his full brothers that now also will find a clear objection over their younger brother’s nomination as next ruler of North Korea.
Kim Jong Chol, 30, was Kim Jong il’s firstborn son with Ko, but the father measured him moreover a feminine to rule the militaristic command in Pyongyang.
The other man, who could have been Kim Jong- un’s major challenger for power, his half-brother Jong Nam, a 40 year-old, living in Chinese part of Macao. In infrequent dialogues with the media, he has sounded aloof or, more recently, critical of the dynastic
succession unfolding in Pyongyang.
The next few days will be more critical as world will see the next sovereign leader of North Korea.
