The BBC's decision to broadcast a daily news bulletin into North Korea has been welcomed by the World Watch Monitor (they report on Christians under pressure for their faith), who said it was the ‘best possible thing’ for people who wanted to see an improvement in North Korea. The BBC proposes ‘significant future investment in the World Service to areas with a democratic deficit in impartial news’. The broadcaster's director general said a daily radio news programme in North Korea was a key part of the plans and the organisation is going to ‘take risks, push boundaries’, and ‘not be afraid of controversy’. The executive editor of the World Watch List said that North Korea, of all the countries in the world, is probably one of the most restricted in terms of what they know about the outside world, because that view is almost entirely controlled by their government.
