A company constantly cutting and adding jobs cannot effectively maintain these relationships or conduct effective, long-term business planning. This trend is not surprising given that so many employees are worried they could be cut at any moment.
The North Korean government has reportedly made plans to strengthen security of its mobile network by the end of this year by ditching Chinese telecoms equipment – just months after deploying it. According to the Daily NK website, citing an anonymous source, the plan emerged in the wake of a conference of information and communication experts in Pyongyang last month to discuss upgrading the national mobile network. At the conference, some attendees argued that the current network is vulnerable to cyber attacks “due to its reliance on Chinese technology and equipment”. The plan aligns with the government’s overall goal of increasing self-reliance and beefing up security systems to not only repel external threats, but also strengthen internal supervision and control, the report added. While the plan is said to have wide support from the government, some experts have reportedly expressed concern that the timeline for achieving this by the end of the year may not be realistic.

A war is looming in Lebanon. For months, Israel and Hizbullah have traded drones, rockets and missiles (see charts). It would be the most intense conflict in the region in decades—a calamity for Israel and a disaster for Lebanon. American and European diplomats continue to shuttle between Israel and Lebanon, hoping, with less and less optimism, to persuade Hizbullah to withdraw 7-10km away from the border. Even then, the result would be a tenuous peace at best, with the threat of cross-border raids by Hizbullah on Israel dissuading many Israelis from returning.
