S. Korean trade union federation hoping to send rice to flood-hit N. Korea
SEOUL, Sept. 15 (Yonhap) -- An umbrella trade union said Wednesday it seeks to send about 100 tons of rice, possibly by land, to North Korea to help the flood-hit nation.
The Federation of Korean Trade Unions (FKTU), which claims up to 900,000 members across the country, said it is in talks with its North Korean counterpart to determine the exact delivery route and size of the aid.
