"Antipodean Group Pushing Engagement Line
Since March 1974, the NZ-DPRK society has taken a different approach, openly engaging and exchanging with the North via a number of small-scale projects. These range from a friendship school in Pyongyang to a cooperative study of migratory birds. Its leaders hope that awareness and understanding will grow out of the process.
As other organizations engaging the North Korean regime have undoubtedly been asked, is any engagement good engagement? For some, the West does not have a glowing record on human rights and should not comment on others. For many, however, a relativistic approach falls spectacularly flat in the face of damning evidence of extraordinary human rights abuses.
For better or worse, as one of only a handful of organizations on amicable terms with North, the organization possesses insight into a society insufficiently understood by the outside world. Daily NK sat down with Chairman Don Borrie and Secretary Peter Wilson to hear their views on unification, the nuclear threat and building trust with the North. "
