China erects fence along N. Korea border
HUSHAN, China - China has been building a massive barbed wire and concrete fence along parts of its border with North Korea in the most visible sign of Beijing's strained ties with its once-cozy communist neighbor.
Scores of soldiers have descended on farmland near the border-marking Yalu River to erect concrete barriers 8 to 15 feet tall and string barbed wire between them, farmers and visitors to the area said.

Amazing we have an immigration problem and it takes forever to just authorize the building of a fence, much less fund and build it.
The North Koreans test one nuke, thousands of North Koreans decide to flee North to China and China decides to build a fence the next day to stem their own illegal immigration problem.
