World musn't be silent in front of execution "show"

  This morning, when I turned on the news, I heard about something shocking.
The news always reports something shocking, to make it a "news", but seldom like this one which shakes our hearts so shockingly.

  A refugee aged 26 (anonym Hee Yoen Lim) who escaped from North Korea in 2015 describes how the supreme leader Kim Jong-Un executed people in public.
One day, when she was still studying at school, she was called out, along with her family, to watch a  "show" of execution taken place in a stadium. There were 11 musicians there waiting to be executed, because they produced "illegal" contents.

  Ways of execution includes being shot into pieces and later being run over by tanks.
  Kim's totalitarian regime forces people, including children to watch those execution "shows", to show them the consequences of "crossing over the line". Lim said she could not eat for 3 days after watching the "show".

  I think when talking about the North Korea (DPRK), the Human Rights issue has to be prioritized. UN also advocates Human Rights as top priorities, but the governors in the world as well as mass media only focuses on the political part and their own interests.

 Compared with the politicians, individuals may not have the fame, luxurious properties and such "big fists", but they also feel the pain, the sadness and despair. It's not because they are not famous so their existence is less worthy. We are all born equal, not? The voices of the people in the world cannot be left unheard, since each individual of us is a precious existence.
