I REFER to the article “Out in 48 hours” where North Korean Ambassador Kang Chol (pic) was ordered to leave Malaysia in that timeframe and declared persona non grata.
Ordinarily, one would expect a country to handle such matters gracefully. However taking into account Kang Chol’s actions in the weeks following the assassination of a North Korean citizen at KLIA2, the move to expel him is certainly the right one.
