The governor of Guam says that the island has become safer after North Korean leader Kim Jong-un deferred his plan to attack the U.S. territory. 
 
Kim said on Tuesday that he would watch how the U.S. will behave a little more before making decisions on the attack.

"The message is very clear that he will not be initiating any aggressive action and that's positive news."
"We will continue to go to work, go to play, go to school and just conduct our lives just normal."

In an interview with KBS on Tuesday, the governor said that the THAAD antimissile system was installed on the island at the order of former President Barack Obama after Kim Jong-un issued his first threat of attack against Guam in 2013. Calvo said that he believes in the antimissile system. 
 
Tourists who booked tours to the island arrived as scheduled, however, some of the island residents held antiwar protests downtown.
