Why is this?

Dunno, maybe because the images are cherry picked?

I thought Cuba was supposed to be the best out of all the Mexican countries

Asians are cleaner, more disciplined and have a good sense for aesthetics. So even shitholes like North Korea look nice and clean compared to Latin America

both are capital cities in centric area

Yeah except North Korea has a shitty weather

Because DPRK invests a lot of money into appearances. During the 1980s Olympic Games in Seoul, the DPRK decided to build a multi million dollar Olympic stadium JUST in hopes they could host a few of the events. To do this they taxed their citizens even more (this was even during a famine) and a shit load of people starved to death.

The Castros in Cuba don’t care. They keep the money to themselves and don’t care about appearances

What’s it like being just one country away from North Korea?

who is closer to the USA?
that should answer your question

North Korea obviously dresses up it's cities for foreigners, we don't give a fuck

why Cuba can't do that, they would make a good gain washing their dictatorship's face

this

People starve all the time, Joe Ramirez. The point of capitalism is keeping up appearances and sweeping the famished under the rug. What happens in North Korea is exactly the same as your 80s banana republics.

because it doesn't fool anybody when korea does it

Because North Korea is a great country with bad propaganda spread by the US

>soul vs soulless
yeah why does nk look like a prison

but it does, they don't look more than 10 times poorer than Cuba

It doesnt because you spew propaganda bullshit about it everyday.

Based
Unironically a high IQ post
DPKR invests everything into keeping up appearances. The capital is a literal showcase to the world, which is meant to show that they are neither impoverished nor liable to respond to international pressure. The vast majority of the DPKR is a bankrupt shithole and even the people in Pyongyang consider themselves lucky if they can shop at Daiso or other dollar-stores.

Only benefit to being stuck on Kim Jong's wild ride is that weed/tobacco/etc are all cheap as fuck. Even meth is socially accepted over there.

Because they don’t care
Lol it’s completely different.

GDP per capita doesn't actually mean the person gets the average per capita, not does it correspond to the development of a place.

It's only the turnover of corporations (total economic value) divided by number of citizens. So if you have a company that does 5K in profit and 10 citizens, 1 earns 4500 and the others earn 50 each, the gdp per capita of the country would be 500 because it doesn't account for distrubution.

That's how some shitholes in russia can have 400k gdp per capita, a oil company sets up shop, takes out billions worth in a small village and then it seems like the average person is "rich" on paper but you look at it and it's an average dump. Go look at average salaries as a better measurement, Cubans make like $50 a month.

>Even meth is socially accepted over there.
that’s because meth is a preferable alternative to starving

the second largest city in NK looks better than la Habana

*invalidates all your shitty arguments*
There, Cuba can also look beautiful, case closed. Now go to bed, José.

Congrats, you are starting to figure it out for yourself!

Hamhung looks depressing honestly.

Look at those beautiful cars

literally the oligarchs's cars of the unique party
