Don't show me this message again✕ North Koran workers are eager to emigrate to Russia where their income is significantly higher (For The Washington Post) On a popular advertising site in Russia's far eastern city of Vladivostok, there's a separate page with listings devoted to North Korean workers available for home construction jobs. The contact information on one post led to a North Korean man who tells The Washington Post he has worked in Russia for “many years”. He said he can earn significantly more money here than in North Korea, even as about half of his earnings are earmarked for Kim Jong-un's regime in Pyongyang.
