No country has ever been more completely laid waste by war than Korea. Before the war the Korean Peninsula was one of the three most intensively industrialized areas of the far East, the others being Japan and Manchuria. Korea under the Japanese had the biggest complex of chemical industries in non-Soviet Asia, submarine shops, and many other large manufacturing enterprises. Today these industries are totally ruined. The loss of life has been appalling. United Nations experts estimate that one out of every nine men, women, and children in North Korea has been killed. United Nations planning is entirely in terms of South Korea's needs.
