Clarissa Baumgartner, a 25-year old Guam resident, said Pyongyang’s second threat in as many days to train its ballistic missiles on Guam wasn’t something she was taking too seriously. “Definitely, I know Guam is a pretty good target because it’s important to the US because of the military,” she said.“I’m pretty confident that the US will protect us. In response to US President Donald Trump’s tough rhetoric, North Korea said on Thursday it was finalising plans to fire four intermediate-range missiles that would land 30-40km (18-25 miles) from Guam. Zhao Liang, a 35-year-old bank teller from Beijing, said she won’t be cutting short her vacation over North Korea’s latest missile threats. “It’s just like setting off fireworks because most of their guided missiles just crash midway through flight,” she said.
