Kim leaves Guangzhou for Shenzhen

North Korean leader Kim Jong-il moved from a first-class hotel in Guangzhou to another in Shenzhen Sunday in the latest move during his mysterious mainland visit, which BBC sources speculate is a boomtown tour organized by Beijing to convince him of the benefits of free markets. The South China Morning Post reported that a heavily guarded motorcade swept into Shenzhen’s Wuzhou Guesthouse complex, a place mainland officials often use for important functions. Kim, 64, continues to refuse to resume nuclear disarmament talks.
