South Korea has agreed to send over food supplies to North Korea, following Kim Jung-Il's death. The first shipment is to be sent out on January 27th, and contains 180 tons of flour meant for elementary schools and day cares. This is the first occurrence since 2008 when South Korea stopped sending aid to the famine-ridden country. Some officials will go and oversee the process for a couple weeks while two will stay there after the others have left.
