Opening-up of space program could change country's image
The five-day window for the Democratic People's Republic of Korea's rocket launch opened on Thursday, as more than 100 foreign reporters waited anxiously to see whether Pyongyang would send its satellite into space.
The satellite that Pyongyang is planning to send into space has a 60 to 70 percent chance of succeeding, according to a Russian space expert.
Experience has shown that the West's hard-line policy toward the DPRK is only intensifying the problems and complicating the situation.
Pyongyang has begun injecting fuel into a rocket built to carry a satellite into space, a China Daily journalist invited to watch the upcoming rocket launch reported.
China renewed its call for restraint on Tuesday as Pyongyang said its planned rocket launch is not an act of aggression.
