PYONGYANG, North Korea, Dec. 3 (UPI) -- North Korea's citizens have been ordered not to take the name of Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un and, if already bearing the same name, to "voluntarily" change it.
The decree was issued in January 2011by then-leader Kim Jong Il and sought to protect the authority of his son and anointed successor, Kim Jong Un. The internal document, titled "a task to achieve," was reported Wednesday in South Korean press.
