Luca Pferdmenges, a German travel influencer, observed significant poverty in North Korea, especially in rural areas like the Rason region. Despite strict rules preventing tourists from photographing poverty, he noted that people in these areas are very poor, with many using oxen and carriages. While the capital, Pyongyang, is wealthier, the country’s rural areas are harshly impoverished, highlighting the inequality between urban and rural life in North Korea.

Pray for the LORD’s intervention in North Korea to provide relief, hope, justice, and all basic needs and rights of those suffering inequality and injustice (The Holy Bible, Psalm 146:7).

Pray against the inequality and partiality between urban and rural areas in North Korea. Pray for the North Korean government to take immediate action to improve the lives and livelihoods of the people in rural areas (The Holy Bible, Proverbs 31:8-9).
