Muy interesante descripción de la frontera entre China y Corea del Norte, visto en Instapundit:

Officially, this is a friendly border. Two bridges span the river here, one rail and one road. But there is little traffic across them, and a vast difference between the two sides. On the North Korean shore, the most noticeable landmark among a huddle of dreary concrete buildings is a big portrait of the late Great Leader Kim Il Sung, gazing into China. At night, like the famous satellite pictures of North Korea (which shows up as a near-blank surrounded by a blaze of lights), the space below him is almost dark.

And while China by most comparisons is no free country, next to North Korea it is a land of liberty and wealth. On the Chinese side, there are bright street lamps along a river promenade, neon signs in the town of 136,000; restaurants and shops, pedicabs and cars.
