Pyongyang, October 22 (KCNA) -- Kim Jong Un, general secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and president of the State Affairs of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, gave field guidance at the construction site for rehabilitating the flood-hit areas in Jagang Province on Oct. 21.
He was accompanied by Jo Yong Won and Ri Il Hwan, secretaries of the C.C., WPK, and relevant cadres of the Party Central Committee.
He was greeted on the spot by Pak Hun, vice-premier of the DPRK Cabinet, Pak Song Chol, chief secretary of the Jagang Provincial Committee of the WPK, and commanding officers of the provincial regiments of Party members involved in the recovery project.
Builders of the regiments of Party members, who were dispatched to the rehabilitation areas in Jagang Province in order to implement the decision of the Party Central Committee on splendidly building dwelling houses as early as possible in the flood-hit areas of North Phyongan, Jagang and Ryanggang provinces that were severely destroyed by flooding in July, have completed the housing construction in the main by powerfully waging all-night construction struggle and are vigorously pushing ahead with the internal construction work at the final stage.
The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un went round the construction site for rehabilitation and learned in detail about the progress of housing construction.
He acknowledged the painstaking efforts of the builders and gave warm encouragement to them who are devoting their pure conscience and sincere efforts at the difficult and labor-consuming posts true to the call of the Party, fully displaying the spirit of devoted service for the people, extraordinary sense of responsibility and strong practical ability.
Expressing satisfaction over the fact that the flood-hit areas, reduced into ruin in an instant due to unexpected natural disaster, are undergoing a radical change without any sign of disaster, he highly appreciated the precious feats of the combatants of the regiments of Party members who are faithfully discharging their noble mission and duty as the members of the Workers' Party at the rehabilitation project site for the people in the flood-hit areas, far away from their dear houses and workplaces.
He called for working hard to bring earlier the happy moment of providing good houses for the flood victims who are waiting for the day of living in new villages and new houses even at this moment.
He referred to the fact that a series of deviations have been revealed in the design and construction of multi- and low-storied houses in the flood-hit areas, and analyzed their reasons. And he clarified the measures to be taken by the state in the future in overcoming the relevant matters arising in the rehabilitation and in launching a vigorous struggle for the overall regional construction.
Recalling that he has already stressed many times that architecture is an extension of politics as it is criterion showing the degree of the idea, national power and civilization in a visual way, and, therefore, even if a building is built, we should regard it as the one related with the self-respect, dignity and honor of our times, he said that some deviations underrating the structural quality have yet been revealed and they should be rectified.
Just like monumental edifices rising all over the country, the dwelling houses under construction for the flood victims, too, are precious assets of the state and the people that should be guaranteed forever, and therefore, it is necessary to overcome even the slightest shortcomings perfectly and direct greater efforts to ensuring perfection, he said, adding that a decision will be made to prolong the completion of the housing projects for the disaster areas, scheduled to be finished by early November, to early December.
He gave detailed instructions on taking practical measures to ensure that the inhabitants and schoolchildren of the flood-hit areas staying in Pyongyang could not feel inconvenience in their living, as regards the delay of the housing construction.
Noting that lots of houses for the flood victims are being built all at once in every flood-hit area of the country thanks to the heroic struggle of the Party members, youths and service personnel and to the support of all the people in the country, he said this gigantic work is not confined to the practical issue for housing construction but a crucial political issue of defending the character of our style socialist system based on the people-first principle and demonstrating its advantages. And he set forth the tasks for completing the project, calling on all the builders to further fully display their extraordinary patriotic enthusiasm and indomitable will so as to successfully complete the construction of houses and provide them to the flood victims with delight.
He stressed the need to further enhance the requirements and role of construction control organs.
He also gave detailed instructions on the important tasks such as the issue of ensuring timely and responsible transport and supply of materials without hindering the schedule of the project, the issue of properly greening the residential areas along with the housing construction and the issue of taking good care of the builders' living conditions.
That day the Secretariat of the WPK Central Committee decided to newly dispatch the chief and the political chief of the field headquarters for rehabilitating the flood-hit areas in Jagang Province.
Expressing expectation and belief that the Party members, youths and service personnel, whom the Party Central Committee dispatched to the difficult and arduous yet sacred and worthwhile struggle with deep trust, would remain faithful to their heavy mission to the end in the patriotic construction theaters for the country and the people, he ardently called for making redoubled efforts once again to build a splendid paradise for the people in the flood-hit areas without fail.
All the builders were filled with a firm determination to make the flames of loyalty and patriotism flare up more highly and vigorously struggle for the socialist country, responding with a firm pledge to the ardent call of the Party Central Committee. -0-
