This exceeded the growth rate in the population predicted by some experts.In 1996 the DPRK's population stood at 22.1million so the population has increased by 2 million or 10%.If there hadbeen a famine or mass starvation such an increase would not have beenpossible-it would have been static or even decreased.Some wild antiDPRK propagandaists claim that 10% of the DPRK's population died,if thiswas true that then the population would have decreased by 2 million andnot increase by 2 million.So another anti DPRK urban legend is exploded.
