What is that? I know many North Koreans migrate to China. And Mongols, central Asians, Vietnamese, etc. to find job opportunities. Chinese migrate to USA and Americans migrate to China. But I never heard about North Koreans refugees in China. Probably there are some that come to China for politic reasons, but probably more alledge politic reasons although their true aim is just better economic means. It i good to see an American such as Wolfowitz seeing China as a politic refuge instead of demonizing China by alledged politic reasons. Really hilarious. Peace and best wishes.
