One wishes that it had been some enterprising North Korean to offer T-Shirts with the portrait of Kim Jong-Il on the market after the dictator's death. It would have been a good sign for the reasons of the market that were going to infiltrate one of the last and most stupid bulwarks of real socialism.
Alas, that was not the case. So who came up with this enterprising idea? As expected, a Chinese entrepreneur, who offered these T-Shirts on the site with a blessing Kim Yong-Il and with a laudatory dida (known for the remaining admirers of real socialism: the company is Shijie, and delivers the product through the e-shopping site TMall.com, called Taobao in China).
Many comments on this news (see website) disagree: it is in bad taste to celebrate a hungry and murderous dictator. Others, on the other hand, see it as proof of an unstoppable entrepreneurial drive and confirmation of the imminent domination of the world by an amoral but pro-business Celestial empire.
