Some choice quotations from the article:
"Pyongyang observers said that Kim Jong-il's death will not result in turbulence in the DPRK and they discounted the possibility of any conflict or escalating tension between the DPRK and the Republic of Korea (ROK)...Kim died of a heart ailment on a train at 8:30 am on Saturday due to 'great mental and physical strain' during a ' high intensity field inspection'..."
"Members of staff at Hae Dang Hwa, a famous Korean restaurant in Beijing, were unaware of the news when a China Daily reporter sought their reaction. Upon being told the news [sic] waitresses broke down in tears and the restaurant closed."
"As for the missile launch, Jin said the move aimed to send a clear sign of deterence, telling the ROK and the US not to take any risky moves that might trigger conflict."
