Korea: Tourism Is Going To Be Great

There's no stock market in North Korea, no market in the traditional sense but I'm very excited about the future of the Korean Peninsula. They don't have anything. Communism destroys everything. They don't have electricity, they don't have suits, they don't have chairs... 

Tourism is going to be great. Korea has not been on the tourist map. If people are sitting around in Europe thinking about where am I gonna go in Asia, I think of Japan, China, Bali, they don't think of Korea for historic reasons. But now people are going to start thinking about going to Korea.
