South Korea President Park Geun-hye Thurday urged North Korea to accept her administration\'s \"trust building\" policy initiative that could open a new era of peace and hope on the peninsula. In a Memorial Day speech delivered at the Seoul National Cemetery, the President said actively participating in laying the foundation for inter-Korean trust is the road the North must take in the future, a Yonhap news agency report said. She pointed out that peace and unification on the Korean Peninsula is the wish of all 70 million Koreans and that as president she will do her utmost to meet such a goal. Pyongyang must realize that its goal of simultaneously pushing forward economic construction while also furthering its nuclear ambitions will only isolate the country from the rest of the world, she stressed. The North Korean leader has repeatedly called for building up the economy and its nuclear weapons capability as the country\'s central policy objective, and demonstrated this resolve by conducting a nuclear test in February in the face of international pressure. The test is the fourth for the country and comes after it successfully launched a long-range rocket late last year.
