1st foreign univ postponed
The Democratic People's Republic of Korea's (DPRK) first foreign-funded university is finally expected to open next year after being delayed by international tensions, the foundation behind the landmark project said yesterday.
The Northeast Asia Foundation for Education and Culture said it has now set April 2009 as the target date after delays caused by disputes over the DPRK's nuclear program and by inter-Korean tensions.
