The Straits Times
WASHINGTON - THE commander of US forces in South Korea said on Tuesday he was 'absolutely confident' of defending against any threat from communist North Korea.

General Walter Sharp said US and South Korean forces were ready to counter potential North Korean attacks ranging from a land invasion to cyber warfare to a missile launch aimed at the continental United States.

'I am absolutely confident that the capabilities that we and the Republic of Korea have are prepared for any threat,' Gen Sharp told a news conference in New York, which was video-linked to Washington.

North Korea has in recent months tested an atom bomb, launched missiles and bolted out of a six-nation agreement on ending its nuclear drive. Pyongyang is also a suspect in recent attacks against US and South Korean websites.

Gen Sharp declined comment on whether North Korea planned further tests or on speculation that the barrage of actions are linked to the failing health of North Korean strongman Kim Jong Il.

'All the governments around the world are hoping and pushing for Kim Jong Il to change his provocations,' Gen Sharp said.
