A PLA officer explained, the 2 meter high fence with barbed wire along the border with the DPRK “was erected to prevent people and livestock from crossing the border by mistake” (China Daily 19 Oct). Oh boy, I would like to see those high-jumping livestock. Our Belgian cows don’t need that high fences. The PLA did not provide pics of the jumpy cows or sheep.
Now the question remains: are those fences in the Beijing embassy area set up to keep the live stock in or out of the embassies? Are embassies afraid the flying cattle would enter and graze on their lovely lawns? I can understand the cows, not much grass around there except in the embassy gardens. Also, I will not by mistake enter the Belgian embassy when visiting the small Friendship Supermarket across the street.
