   North Korea recruits young foreign women to be celebrities and they end
   up murdering an influential man. In the US, young foreign women are
   recruited to be models and they end being murdered by an influential
   man.
   Based on this limited set of information, yes, North Korea is more
   moral than the US.
   There are procedural changes that could be done, monthly stories on
   scams preying on young women in the news media, organizations or such
   that directly deal with foreign workers, etc. There could even be a
   cottage industry, with think tanks proposing ideas for new
   bureaucracies to protect and oversee marginalized groups...
   Still, no bureaucrat directly rationalizes "how can I be cruel to
   someone today", but the cruellest decisions are the result of
   bureaucrats not actually meeting the people they authorize various
   actions towards. It is not unthinkable a small army of bureaucrats in
   Malaysia thought this would yield something:
   >Another time, one of them told me that if I didn’t plead guilty, North
   Korea would bomb my home country. I didn’t know whether to believe it
   or not.
