Alcohol is prohibited in Pakistan except for members of non-Muslim religious minorities, who can apply for alcohol permits. There is a black market in alcoholic drinks, and I've read that quite a few less-developed countrries' embassies have in the past sold drinks brought in using the diplomatic bag. The North Korean embassy in London is in Ealing, so it's close - but not too close - to the (South) Korean community in New Malden.

I was wondering why the DPRK embassy in London is a normal looking house in an anonymous residential suburb……the fact thet they receive little or no funding sort of makes sense of this ……..
