Recently, media of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea reported the news about the inaugurated Kangdong County Hospital with photos showing widespread excitement across the country.
The Eleventh Plenary Meeting of the Eighth Congress of the Workers’ Party of Korea held in late December 2024 decided to include the construction of advanced healthcare facility, leisure complex and grain storage facility in the regional development policy designed to build modern regional-industry factories in 20 cities and counties every year. This brought great delight and excitement to all parts of the country probably because it would make it possible for the locals to enjoy the benefits of the modern medical services in their localities, not having to visit the central and provincial hospitals.
By the way their expectation began to be realized in some 280 days.
It would be easier said than done to build a modern hospital as it is a functional building that requires technical compatibility from the terminals of the infrastructure to medical equipment and appliances. But the DPRK finished the project in less than 10 months after its groundbreaking in February.
Kim Jong Un, general secretary of the Workers’ Party of Korea, energetically guided the project by visiting the construction site twice in the 280-odd days, save for the groundbreaking and inauguration ceremonies. It is evident that the people’s safety and the promotion of their health are always at the forefront of his mind among all the state affairs to transform the regions and build a civilized and prosperous country.
In addition, the DPRK plans to build six modern medical facilities this year, including the Pyongyang General Hospital inaugurated in October as the parent body of the modernized public health, Kusong City Hospital, Ryonggang County Hospital and first-aid posts in the Wonsan Kalma Coastal Tourist Area.
It is unbelievable to build so many medical facilities in a year, but there is something more surprising.
From next year the DPRK will start to build modern regional hospitals in 20 cities and counties every year without fail. Speaking at the inauguration ceremony of the Kangdong County Hospital, Kim Jong Un reportedly said that proclaiming inauguration in the year of groundbreaking is just our mettle and the speed of transformation and advance which we are going to achieve amid an uninterrupted surge–the speed of Korea. Everything is coming true according to his intention, and this is the current reality of the country. The Korean people would have been excited about the inauguration of the Kangdong County Hospital because they must see the bright future that would smile on them as well.
