"They said there were two evacuation drills in Samjiyon, Taehongdan and Pochon, Ryanggang Province since last fall."

'The radio station said fears of an eruption were also behind the sudden suspension of the Mt. Baekdu tourism railroad project, slated for completion by 2012, and that of a mammoth tourism and athletics facility for winter sports nearby, to be completed the same year.'

so their reasons dont have anything to do with recent earthquake swarms or anything scientific, so why should anyone worry? i mean, of course its a volcano, but there isnt any evidence in the post to say its going to erupt soon.
