Eldest Kim rejects succession plan
|
|
The casino-loving eldest son of North Korea's Kim Jong Il — once tipped to succeed him before trying to sneak into Japan to go to Disneyland — says he opposes a hereditary transfer of power to his younger half brother. While his disapproval is unsurprising, it's the first public sign of discord in the tightly choreographed succession process, although analysts said Kim Jong Nam has lived outside his native land for so long his opinion will carry little weight. Kim Jong Nam travels freely and spends much of his time in China or Macau, the center of Asian gambling. (AP)
