UNDP subsidizes energy in North Korea: pays $12,000 per year cooking and hot water energy for only 20 families

 SCANDAL

In DPR Korea, UNDP pays

$12,000 (KGS 600,000) = Cooking/hot water x 1 year x 20 families 

= $600 x Family/year = $50 x Family/month

= 5 times salary of a North Korean worker
(a North Korean earns less than $10 per month)
