  "summary": "North Korea's parliament has removed a vice chairman and amended two laws, according to state media. The Standing Committee of the 15th Supreme People's Assembly held a presidium meeting on Friday, deciding to recall one of the assembly's vice chairmen, though the specific individual and reasons were not disclosed. Additionally, the committee adopted decrees amending the construction and precious metal management laws, though the details of these changes were not provided. The construction law revision may be connected to North Korean leader Kim Jong-un's regional development policy, which aims to build modern facilities in various cities and counties over the next decade to promote economic growth and regional self-sufficiency.",
