What can you say about the plan of north korea to launch a rocket this april? According to the news report, there are no records still of north korea of having successful rocket launch that is why many countries are alarmed especially to our country. According to study, the parts of the rocket that will be launch will land on some parts of the philippine area of responsibility and the philippines is more alarmed when the launch is not successful because most debris will land fall on the philippines. On the past days, many countries, most especially to ASEAN countries say that they do not want that north korea will continue the launching because maybe it will be dangerous.

This rocket launch of North Korea is really alarming considering that the Philippines and Japan are in direct path of the rocket. Okinawa is on the alert regarding the launch and so with other neighboring countries. The Philippines has imposed a no fly zone in the area of responsibility from April 12 to 16, where the rocket is expected to pass to avoid any risks of airplanes being hit. We don't really have an idea on how large the debris will be. If it as big as a refrigerator or a truck then it might really cause damage. Will North Korea be paying for any damages and casualties? Like the what the Asean members said, North Korea should prioritize the needs of the people who are hungry. It is very irresponsible for them to be launching a rocket which will put other countries in risk of danger.

I too am worried about this. It is as if they dont care on what happens to my poor country. If they want to launch their own rocket, let them mess with their own land!!! Sshhushh! I am touched because South Korea and Japan will counter the rocket launch... What is it with those guys anyway?? Uggh!

Wow this is bad news, because my country is member of ASEAN (Indonesia) and I hope North Korea cancel this.
