NORTH Korean leader Kim Jong-Il is suffering from chronic laryngitis - probably because of excessive smoking and drinking - and he can't work without resting every other day, a report said yesterday.
The disease worsened last month, though the 67-year-old leader has recovered much from last year's reported stroke and a kidney disease, said the Seoul-based Open Radio for North Korea, a radio station specializing in Democratic People's Republic of Korea news.
The station cited an unidentified "high-level source" in North Korea as saying that Kim can't work without resting every other day because of the illness.
It said Kim's "excessive smoking and drinking" is believed to be the cause.
