Discrimination against Korean Schools Unabated in Japan
Pyongyang, February 28 (KCNA) -- The Gunma prefectural authorities of Japan suspended the payment of subsidies to the Korean junior and middle school in the prefecture on Monday amid the Japanese government's unabated discrimination against Korean schools in Japan.

The authorities decided not to include the subsidies to the school in their 2018 budget on the unreasonable grounds that the school has not been true to the "provisions" it is obliged to carry out.

Those "provisions" are that the school should specify the "abduction issue" in textbooks and cease its ties with the General Association of Korean Residents in Japan.
