These troops consider themselves on the front line of freedom and they are constantly ready, and they take all of the steps necessary to maintain their readiness. You said the other day that you didn't think a missile test was imminent. A South Korean security official said it could be three to four weeks before North Korea is even in a position to test the missile. Let me try to get an answer. One more question about this China thing, because periodically there are all kinds of reports about China's intentions, China's threats.
China is the most populous country in the world.
It's a country that is working very hard to improve its agriculture and its economy. It has one fundamental challenge that is repeated time and time by its leaders, and that is to find ways to feed and employ its population which is huge, despite efforts to control it, obviously. I think that their fundamental goal has been economic and agricultural development. When Deng Xaoping set up the four modernizations, military modernization was the last one, and it's the last one they've gotten to. They've concentrated much more heavily on industrial, agricultural modernization.
