Shortly after Hamas’s horrific attack against Israel on October 7, 2023, photos of North Korean-made F-7 rocket-propelled grenades allegedly used against the Israel Defense Forces emerged online. South Korea’s National Intelligence Service has since confirmed Hamas’s possession and use of North Korean-made weapons against Israel. Although there is no firm evidence linking direct weapons sales between North Korea and Hamas, recent accounts of North Korean arms in the hands of nonstate armed actors (NSAAs) such as Hamas and the Russian-based Wagner Group have drawn renewed attention to North Korea’s long-standing involvement in the global illicit arms trade.

North Korea’s nuclear and missile programs have attracted far greater attention than its complicity in arms trafficking, but the two issues remain linked. To raise funds for its nuclear and ballistic missile programs while averting sanctions, North Korea must rely on its illicit trade and financial networks. The Workers’ Party of North Korea’s Central Committee Bureau 39 (also known as Office 39) is tasked with raising funds for the regime. This includes illicit trade involving drugs, counterfeit money, cryptocurrency, and wildlife (ivory in particular) in addition to weapons sales.

Escalating conflict in the Middle East and Russia’s prolonged war in Ukraine will only increase demand from both state and nonstate actors for low-cost weapons which North Korea can provide as the regime circumnavigates sanctions. North Korean leader Kim Jong Un’s incentive is to ramp up weapons production and raise revenue for his own military, and he exhibits no qualms in directly or indirectly proliferating weapons to NSAAs. The international community may not be able to completely halt North Korean weapons production, but it must take measures to better track and monitor North Korean illicit arms trafficking and better enforce U.N. sanctions that prohibit United Nations member states from procuring North Korean weapons.

Ties to nonstate armed actors in the Middle East

North Korea’s connections to NSAAs date back to the Cold War when North Korea itself was engaged in a strategy of what scholar Benjamin Young refers to as “guerilla internationalism.” As a revolutionary state, Young argues that North Korea was “committed to the ethos of guerilla fighting and assisting non-state actors in their own struggles for sovereignty and independence.” The regime provided communist insurgents and anti-colonial liberation movements with training and weapons.

In the post-Cold War period, this support expanded to Islamist militant groups such as Hezbollah and Hamas. North Korea also provided weapons to state actors such as Iran, Syria, Yemen, and Lebanon. For instance, during the Iran-Iraq War in the 1980s, North Korea provided Iran with Scud B missiles, antitank weapons, anti-aircraft systems, rocket launchers, and other small arms. In the mid-2000s, North Korea supplied weapons and parts to Hezbollah by routing them through Iran and then assembling them in Syria before they were finally shipped to Lebanon.

In another example from 2015, Houthi militants fired 20 Scud-C missiles into Saudi Arabia that were identical to North Korea’s Hwasong-6 missile. As Samuel Ramani of the Royal United Services Institute argues, the Houthis likely captured the Scuds during battle against the Yemeni Armed Forces, which had purchased them from North Korea in 2002. Although there is no confirmation of North Korean weapons deliveries to the Houthis, a 2019 United Nations Panel of Experts report cites North Korean attempts to supply small arms and military equipment to the Houthis through arms traffickers in Syria.

North Korea and the Wagner Group

Resurging Russia-North Korea military ties, including reported arms shipments to the Wagner Group during the early phases of the war in Ukraine in 2022, have drawn greater scrutiny on North Korean illicit weapons. In December 2022, U.S. officials stated that the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) had delivered missiles to the Wagner Group. Although North Korean weapons were unlikely to affect battlefield dynamics in Ukraine, U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Linda Thomas-Greenfield expressed concern that such arms deals could fund North Korea’s ballistic missile and nuclear programs: “Wagner’s purchase of weapons from the DPRK to wreak destruction in Ukraine also contributes to instability on the Korean peninsula by giving the DPRK funds it can use to further develop its prohibited weapons of mass destruction and ballistic missile programs.”

The death of former Wagner Group leader Yevgeny Prigozhin, and the warming of North Korea-Russia ties since September 2023, has lessened the need for either country to go through the Wagner Group to procure weapons for Russia. In recent months, several reports have emerged indicating an uptick in artillery shells and up to 2.5 million rounds of ammunition traversing from North Korea into Russia.

That said, both Russia and North Korea may still find it convenient to retain Wagner as a weapons transfer node. The new commander of the Wagner Group, Anton Yelizarov, recently suggested that Wagner might merge with the Russian National Guard or Russia’s Africa Corps. Likewise, British intelligence officials stated that Wagner troops would be used to “reinforce Russia’s war effort in Ukraine and expand Russian influence in Africa.” If so, African countries, such as Libya and Sudan where both North Korea and Wagner have operated, might offer an easy point of entry for North Koreans to smuggle arms to Russia. In various African countries, sanctions enforcement tends to be lax. In turn, an increase in North Korean-made weapons circulating across Asia, Africa, and the Middle East will likely result in more of these weapons falling into the hands of NSAAs such as Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis.

Measures to curb North Korean weapons trade

Curbing North Korea’s illicit arms trade is imperative for two reasons. First, North Korean missiles and munitions are tied to bad actors who want to harm the United States and/or its allies which in turn fuels violence and regional instability. Although most NSAAs such as the Wagner Group, Hamas, Hezbollah, or the Houthis procure weapons through their respective patrons, Russia and Iran, North Korean-made weapons are also proliferating to NSAAs. Blocking North Korea’s weapons trade will help reduce the supply of weapons reaching NSAAs.

Second, North Korea’s boost in illicit arms deals provides a lifeline for the cash-strapped Kim regime. As argued by University of Sydney Professor Justin Hastings, North Korea is a “most enterprising country.” The Kim regime will capitalize on both state and nonstate actors’ growing demand for ballistic missiles, small arms, and other weapons rising from the conflicts in Ukraine and Gaza. In addition to crypto cybertheft, crystal meth production, and other illicit activities, arms sales will help the regime generate revenue and fund its own growing missile, space, cyber, and nuclear programs. Bloomberg News reported that artillery shell sales to Russia alone could generate $1 billion in revenue for the Kim regime.

Despite numerous sanctions levied against North Korea that prohibit and penalize foreign assistance to North Korea’s missile and nuclear program (e.g., U.N. Security Council Resolution 1718, U.S. Executive Order 13382, the Arms Export Control Act, and the Export Administration Act), sanctions are no longer effectively enforced due to Russian and Chinese political support for North Korea.

Nevertheless, the United States and the international community must push harder to monitor and disrupt North Korea’s illicit trade and financial networks and enforce sanctions that are already in place. New advances in satellite and artificial intelligence technology might be explored to better track North Korean shipments and financial transactions. For example, some experts have suggested moving away from “list-checking” sanctioned entities and relying more on big data using sophisticated algorithmic methods and machine learning to track patterns of illicit North Korean activity.

Additionally, more work needs to be done to track North Korean individuals and companies linked to Office 39 to staunch the flow of money back to the regime. Although the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control remains vigilant in investigating illicit North Korean financial networks, a U.N. Panel of Experts (POE) found that front companies such as Glocom, based out of Malaysia, “used an extensive network of individuals, companies and offshore bank accounts to procure, market and sell arms and related materiel” for North Korea. The POE recommended sanctioning Glocom in 2016, yet it continues to conduct business selling communications technology to militaries in Africa and Asia.

North Korean small and light weapons exports to countries “striving for human security and political stability” also deserve greater scrutiny. As one 2022 study found, despite the decrease in North Korean arms imported by U.N. member states from 2009-2011, weapons sales have begun climbing again since 2015. Between 2015-2021, Trinidad and Tobago, El Salvador, Niger, and Fiji all imported over $10,000 in North Korean small arms. The international community can pressure, discourage, and/or shame countries that knowingly procure North Korean weapons that contribute to violence and crime.

Lastly, increased knowledge and transparency regarding North Korea’s illicit arms networks may help pressure North Korea by helping global actors interdict North Korean arms shipments headed toward conflict areas. Initiatives such as the Proliferation Security Initiative (PSI) which focus more narrowly on weapons of mass destruction (WMD) had brought some success in blocking the transport of WMD-related materials to North Korea in the 2000s. Reviving the PSI and encouraging the 106 signatory countries to renew their efforts at preventing the circulation of WMD-related materials, including ballistic missiles, should also be considered.

Starting a Jewellery Business Online: The Third Part

In two of the previous communiqués, retail and eCommerce consulting enterprise, Your Retail Coach (YRC) shared insights on five critical visions and four vital areas of planning in starting an online jewellery store with an emphasis on the MENA region including countries like the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Egypt, Qatar, Kuwait, and Bahrain. In this media release, YRC highlights four additional areas of planning on the same subject.

Inventory Management

Inventory management holds a place of prominence in the jewellery business. No online jewellery business can afford to have fault lines in its inventory management.

For starters, demand forecasting must be of superior quality. This helps prevent situations of overstocking and understocking. Secondly, data collection and maintenance of records must be impeccable to avoid any inventory shrinkage. This also calls for periodical inventory audits for the reconciliation of book records with actual inventory. The use of barcode scanners and inventory management software for jewellery businesses is extremely necessary for accuracy and timeliness in creating, maintaining, and sharing inventory data.

High-quality inventory management demands having the right strategies, vigilant selection and onboarding of suppliers and vendors, defined business processes and workflows, choosing the best-fit IT solutions, use of analytics, and reliable procurement planning.

Technology

No matter how ordinary it may sound, eCommerce drives on technology. Technology is the route via which buying and selling takes place in eCommerce or an online business.

Different modes of eCommerce platforms and services provide the basic infrastructure to create online storefronts, list and manage product offerings, offer account and order management for customers, process payments, execute returns and exchanges, etc.

CMS tools enable information management on eCommerce sites and mobile applications of businesses.

Tools like chatbots and virtual assistants significantly bring down operational costs while lending speed and accuracy to helping customers with their queries and complaints.

In warehouses and fulfilment centres, robotic and industrial automation gives efficacy to inventory management, quality control, order fulfilment operations, logistics, and more.

Online jewellery brands and businesses need to be cognizant of the tools and technologies that are used in their line of business.

Omnichannel Strategy for Online Jewellery Business

Customers or potential customers interact with eCommerce brands at multiple junctures. These online and offline touchpoints are spread all over in a customer journey. For an online jewellery brand, these touchpoints are advertisements, online storefronts, customer care, account management, payment, home delivery, returns and exchanges, etc. It is crucial to provide an unswerving and seamless omnichannel shopping experience to customers - the efforts of which are strongly reflected in these touchpoints. For example, if a quality certificate has been promised and not delivered, it creates a deviation in omnichannel performance. This counts as a failure in omnichannel because something that was promised in online channels was not missing in the offline channel i.e. at the time of delivery.

Digital Marketing

One of the foremost advantages of digital marketing for online jewellery businesses is that it enables reaching out to a wider audience in a matter of minutes. It allows targeting markets from a wide geography. Secondly, brand communications can be curated to the specific requirements of demographics and interests. Given its potential, digital marketing is also more efficient in terms of costs as compared to traditional methods like print media. The best part is the ability to track campaigns and make the necessary adjustments and keep the ROI under check.

Social media platforms have provided both online and offline brands and businesses a window of opportunity to connect with their customers in multifarious ways. Customer support serves as a prime example here. Today, having a strong presence on social media is regarded as a manifestation of a responsible and committed brand. Winning on social media means huge in a competitive stance. Given the intensity of competition in the eCommerce jewellery space in cities like Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Riyadh, Muscat, Doha, Kuwait City, and Cairo, it is advisable to diligently do the homework on social media marketing before even making a noise.

Challenges Facing the Missile Defense System Market

1. High Cost of Missile Defense Systems

One of the major challenges facing the missile defense system market is the high cost of developing and maintaining these systems. The complexity of the technology and the resources required to develop interceptors, early warning systems, and missile launchers contribute to significant expenses. For instance, the US Army spent over USD 23 billion on the development of the Safeguard Anti-ballistic Missile (ABM) system, but it was shut down due to its exorbitant operating costs.

Despite the strategic importance of missile defense systems, the high cost of development often delays programs or forces governments to reconsider budget allocations. As a result, companies operating in the sector must balance cost efficiency with technological advancements to remain competitive.

2. Limited Interception Capabilities

Current missile defense systems primarily focus on intercepting missiles in the mid-course or terminal stages of their trajectory. However, there is growing recognition of the need for "boost-phase" interception, where missiles are intercepted at the start of their launch, a phase where they are slowest.

The development of boost-phase intercept systems has been controversial due to the technical and financial challenges associated with deploying interceptors in space or utilizing advanced technologies like drones and lasers. Despite these challenges, research in this area is ongoing, and advancements could significantly enhance global missile defense capabilities in the future.

Key Benefits of Hiring a Project Management Consultancy in Saudi Arabia

In today's fast-paced and complex business environment, the need for effective project management is more critical than ever. This is particularly true in Saudi Arabia, where large-scale infrastructure projects and ambitious development plans, such as Vision 2030, require meticulous planning, execution, and management. Hiring a project management consultancy in Saudi Arabia can provide numerous benefits that contribute to the successful completion of these projects. Here, we explore the key advantages of engaging a PMC for your project needs.

Expertise and Experience

Project management consultancies bring a wealth of expertise and experience to the table. These firms are staffed by professionals who have managed a variety of projects across different industries and regions. In Saudi Arabia, PMCs (project management consultancy) are well-versed in the local regulatory landscape, cultural nuances, and market conditions. This local knowledge, combined with global best practices, ensures that your project is managed efficiently and effectively from inception to completion.

Improved Project Efficiency

One of the primary benefits of hiring a PMC is the significant improvement in project efficiency. PMCs utilize standardized methodologies and advanced tools to streamline project processes. This results in better coordination among stakeholders, timely identification of potential issues, and proactive problem-solving.

Enhanced Risk Management

Risk management is a critical component of project management, especially for large-scale projects in Saudi Arabia. PMCs are adept at identifying, assessing, and mitigating risks throughout the project lifecycle. Their comprehensive risk management strategies include contingency planning, regular risk assessments, and effective communication channels. This proactive approach to risk management helps to minimize disruptions and ensures that projects remain on track.

Access to Advanced Technologies

Project management consultancies leverage the latest technologies to enhance project delivery. Tools such as Building Information Modeling (BIM), project management software, and data analytics platforms enable PMCs to provide real-time insights and data-driven decision-making. These technologies improve project transparency, facilitate collaboration, and allow for more accurate tracking of project progress. By employing cutting-edge technologies, PMCs in Saudi Arabia ensure that projects are managed with the highest level of precision and efficiency.

Cost Savings

Engaging a PMC can lead to significant cost savings over the course of a project. Through meticulous planning, efficient resource allocation, and effective risk management, PMCs help to avoid costly overruns and delays. Their expertise in procurement and contract management also ensures that the best value is obtained from suppliers and contractors. Additionally, PMCs often have established relationships with local vendors and subcontractors, which can result in more favorable terms and reduced costs.

Quality Assurance

Maintaining high standards of quality is essential for the success of any project. PMCs implement robust quality assurance processes to ensure that all project deliverables meet the required standards. Regular quality audits, inspections, and performance evaluations are conducted to identify and rectify any deviations from the project specifications. By maintaining stringent quality control measures, PMCs ensure that the final project output meets or exceeds client expectations.

Tailored Solutions

Every project is unique, and a one-size-fits-all approach is seldom effective. PMCs offer tailored solutions that are customized to meet the specific needs of each project. They work closely with clients to understand their objectives, constraints, and requirements, and develop a project management plan that aligns with these parameters. This personalized approach ensures that the project is managed in a manner that best suits the client's needs and maximizes the chances of success.

Integration with EPC Construction

In addition to managing standalone projects, PMCs often play a crucial role in the execution of Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) projects. These large-scale projects require seamless integration of various disciplines, and PMCs are well-equipped to manage this complexity. They coordinate between the engineering, procurement, and construction teams to ensure that all aspects of the project are aligned and progressing as planned.

Financial and commercial assessments are a critical component of business planning. This applies to eCommerce businesses as well. These assessments serve as a guide map for routine decision-making and aid in sticking to the budgets. On the bigger picture, they help keep the financial health and performance of organisations in good shape. Without any yardstick or roadmap, operational outlays can go unchecked leading to hampering profitability and working capital. Also, the creation of funds and reserves (including investments) can take an unduly longer time if the periodical availability of cash/bank balance always remains uncertain or inconsistent.

Working capital management holds high relevance for eCommerce brands and businesses. For example, cash on delivery is a common standard in eCommerce. This creates a time lag between receiving payments and making payments to suppliers. This time gap must be duly considered on the negotiation tables with suppliers.

Some of the important areas of financial and commercial assessments in eCommerce business planning are listed below:

· Capital and operating expenditures, · Demand forecasting · Procurement planning and scheduling · Sales and revenue forecasting · Cash flow · Working capital · Pricing and margin analysis · Estimated P/L statements and balance sheet · ROI and break-even analysis, · Important financial ratios

Functional strategies define how different functions of a business enterprise shall run. This covers formulating strategies for finance, IT, operations, HR, administration, supply chain, logistics, etc. It is important that each of these functions is aligned with the overall and specific business objectives in addition to their unique individual requirements. For example, if early delivery (better than competitors) is a marketing prerequisite then logistics strategy must support it.

As experienced online business consultants, YRC maintains that the use of Standard Operating Procedures ( https://www.yourretailcoach.ae/services/sop-development/ ) is critical to achieving operational excellence in an eCommerce business. ECommerce is known for its speed and accuracy. The quality of operations planning affects the ability of eCommerce businesses to fulfil their promises and meet the higher expectations of customers. Startups must start working on their operations planning from the early legs of business planning. This helps bring perfection to business processes. In this pursuit, process orientation and the use of SOPs for eCommerce play a decisive role.

In choosing IT solutions for eCommerce business operations, technology and operations planning must go hand in hand. Technology is of no use if it cannot support the operational requirements of an enterprise. For example, if customer feedback is required, the eCommerce platform must have the capability to send automated emails or updates to the registered email addresses and mobile numbers of customers. The platform should also be able to send such communications in a timely manner. This could be a part of CRM, quality control, or any other department or business process. The important part is that such strategies or policies must be translated into processes and procedures. It is only then that an IT solution (say CRM software) could be designed or improvised to achieve the desired process outcomes. This effort is SOP-IT integration.

Customer experience has emerged as a competitive front in all kinds of B2C businesses including eCommerce. Providing a smooth, seamless, effective, and consistent customer and user journey is the essence of superior customer experience. In developing CX strategies, the customer journey is mapped from start to end running in cycles comprising numerous online and offline touchpoints. These touchpoints are the places where customers have interactions with brands. The quality of this encounter defines the quality of experience perceived or received by customers. Any major irregularity in one or more of these touchpoints can have a halo effect on the overall customer journey leading to a poor experience. When this journey is pleasant, the chances of customers repeating it are higher. In cities like Dubai, Riyadh, Cairo, Abu Dhabi, Muscat, Kuwait City, or Doha, the element of customer experience could play make or break for eCommerce startups and existing brands.

Personalisation in eCommerce is the tailoring of offerings, experience, journey, and experience for individual customers or customer segments. It allows eCommerce brands and businesses to create brand resonance in a personalised way. If the assessments are correct, personalisation helps bring a brand closer to its customers. Customers may know that it is a technology-based adjustment but it ends up improving their shopping experience with brands. To compete effectively in the markets of the Middle East or MENA region, personalisation strategies should find prominence in eCommerce business model development.
