North Korea Announces New Law on Wireless Communication by Foreign Offices [FARS News Agency]


(FARS News Agency Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) TEHRAN (FNA)- North Korean authorities banned foreign diplomatic missions and branches of international humanitarian organizations working in the country from using any kind of wireless communications without government approval, starting from Monday.



The state department regulating radio frequencies said controls extending to satellite and Wi-Fi were in the interests of national security, ITAR-TASS reported.

Regulations demand that foreign missions immediately dismantle all equipment providing such means of communication or face penalties including a substantial fine, enforced suspension of those systems and their confiscation.


Officials said foreign representations would be allowed to use equipment only after authorization.
