The chairman Google, Eric Schmidt, has asked North Korea to open its Internet to join the rest the world. North Korea is one the most closed and secretive countries the world. Only a few its citizens have Internet access, but that is strictly controlled the government. Almost no one can access the World Wide Web. Mr Schmidt said it was very important the country to end its isolation so North Koreans can become richer. He said: "As the world is becoming increasingly connected, their decision to be [almost totally] isolated is very much going to affect their physical world, their economic growth, and so forth….It will make it hard them to catch economically.”
