N.Korea names ex-premier back to the post - KCNA
         
Former North Korean premier Pak Pong-ju, who was sacked in 2007 for failing to successfully implement economic reforms, was re-appointed to the top cabinet post at a meeting of the country's rubber-stamp assembly on Monday, its KCNA news agency said.                  

"At the session, Deputy Choe Yong-rim was recalled from the post of premier of the DPRK Cabinet and Deputy Pak Pong-ju was elected premier of the DPRK Cabinet," KCNA said.                                  

DPRK is short for the North's official name, the Democratic People's Republic of Korea. Pak was named to the North's powerful ruling Workers' Party of Korea Central Committee political bureau on Sunday.
