 JPRI Working Paper No. 101
Elsewhere, Hirasawa, who at first defended the Prime Minister’s trip and the results, appeared to backtrack when it became clear that the families, their supporters, and much of the media coverage were negative.
Because North Korea has admitted to a nuclear weapons program and is now considered an international threat, and now that the children of four of the five abductees are safely in Japan, some in the Japanese government believe it is time to put away the heated emotions attached to the abduction issue.
However strong the prime minister’s desire to be seen as an international statesman dealing with larger issues such as North Korea’s nuclear program, in the end, he is elected by ordinary voters with local concerns.

 IV. Country Narratives: East Asia and Pacific
The government needs to closely examine its policy of returning North Korean migrants and refugees to ensure that trafficking victims are protected rather than subjected to the harsh treatment they receive on their return to North Korea.
The Prime Minister and his Cabinet have made a significant effort to mobilize the resources of the bureaucracy to address the trafficking issue, creating a senior coordinator presiding over an inter-ministerial committee for anti-trafficking efforts in March 2004.
The Philippines is placed on Tier 2 Watch List due to the government’s failure to provide evidence of increasing efforts to combat severe forms of trafficking, particularly in terms of its weak implementation of the anti-trafficking law and a lack of progress in law enforcement.

Hu Weiyong was prime minister from 1373; but when he failed to inform the Emperor about tributary envoys from Champa arriving at the capital of Nanjing in late 1379, Hongwu took power into his own hands by putting Hu Weiyong on trial for treason in 1380.

Relations between the Military Command and the Prime Minister’s civilian advisers were not strained, as they were during the early days of the government’s tenure in power.
The civilian Minister of Defense was dismissed from his post when Prime Minister Tabdullah learned that he had been working with Opposition Party opposition leaders who were launching a campaign to remove a key general from office.
According to XX, Prime Minister Tabdullah’s assertive leadership style was tempered by a strongly permissive element, and his handling of the Republic of Purdistan crisis was no exception.

 BOOKS: 'Australian Prime Ministers', edited by Michelle Grattan - February 24, 2001
Considering the number of State parliamentarians who have gone to gaol (one NSW Justice Minister escaped the gallows only through insanity), PMs' comparative moral stature is conspicuous.
Today, a clever youth from a modest background will almost never dream of a parliamentary livelihood; he is far more likely to end up in the IT sector, to produce his own samizdat-style magazine, or to help run a think-tank.
Since membership of all major parties has fallen to a post-1945 low - illustrating these parties' continued failure to command adult minds' loyalty - the dearth of future Prime Ministerial talent will presumably remain unless the party organisations themselves are, in effect, updated out of existence.

 Scoop: NGOs Claim Israeli Agent Barkan In North Korea
Information was released at the conference suggesting Israeli agents, including Barkan, had entered into North Korea under the guise of security consultants to help North Korea build a "security wall" to keep its people in.
It is believed North Korean and Israeli experts are conducting a "feasibility study" on the construction of a security fence along the 1500 KM North Korea China border.
