PYONGYANG, Oct. 27 (Xinhua) -- The Philippines has appointed an ambassador to the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK), the official KCNA news agency reported Friday.
Kim Yong Nam, member of the Presidium of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea and president of the Presidium of the Supreme People's Assembly, received credentials from Jose Santiago L. Sta. Romana at the Mansudae Assembly Hall on Friday, the report said.
