Bill on changes to the elected presidency

A Bill to amend the Constitution, to effect changes to the elected presidency (EP), will be introduced to Parliament on Monday (Oct 10). It follows a review of the EP by a Constitutional Commission.

Among the changes proposed are one that will see elections reserved for a particular racial group if there has not been a president from that group for six terms.

Concern as Pyongyang marks anniversary of ruling Workers' Party founding

North Korea marks the anniversary of the founding of its ruling Workers' Party on Monday (Oct 10), amid concerns that the isolated state is planning another nuclear test or missile launch in a show of force on the day of the event. Satellite images released this month have shown increased activity at the country's Sohae Satellite Launching Station, including crates on the launch pad and vehicles near oxidiser and fuel buildings. Previous tests and launches have coincided with key dates in North Korea's politics.
