Kim Jong Un unfolded a grand blueprint for building a world-class cultural resort in the scenic spot in the east coast.

He had matured a far-reaching plan to build a cultural recreation ground for the people on scenic and beautiful beaches from long ago. In his New Year Address for 2018, he set forth the task for completing the construction of the Wonsan Kalma coastal tourist area in the shortest time by the concerted efforts of the army and people and took all measures ranging from forming powerful construction forces to providing equipment, materials and funds.

He examined thousands of layouts to turn the area into a magnificent world-class coastal tourist city, the best marine park boasting of its fascinating appearance and modern beauty.

In the first year of the project, he visited the construction site three times and organized and commanded the whole course of the construction of the tourist city from the viewpoint of a designer, builder and operator

The outstanding leadership of Kim Jong Un, who is making a long journey of devotion and efforts to provide our people with the best place of happy life in the world with his noble outlook on the people, brought about a dramatic change in Myongsasimni, the scenic spot in the east coast.

The Kalma area was seething from the beginning of the construction thanks to the strong will and unyielding struggle of the army and people who turned out in hearty response to the far-reaching plan and determination of Kim Jong Un to provide the people with quite new happiness and civilization as soon as possible.

Thanks to the steadfast offensive spirit of the builders, more than 3 million cubic meters of bedding project, 20-odd kilometers of roadbed project, waterway project extending 15 kilometers, building of embankment along coastal promenade, the project for coastal park, readjustment of 40 hectares of sandy beach, the project for building 170 000 meters of substructure and the framework construction of hundreds of buildings were completed to newly change the appearance of Myongsasimni in less than one year.

The edifices in Myongsasimni reflect the people-first architectural idea of the Party that all the structures to be built on this land should be created in conformity with our people’s emotions and aesthetic feelings and embody the people’s demands and aspirations, and the level of the rapidly developing Juche architecture.

The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un attended the inauguration ceremony of the Wonsan Kalma coastal tourist area on June 24 and personally cut off the inauguration tape. And he highly appreciated the building of an eye-opening entity to be recorded as one of the greatest successes for this year of rounding off the implementation of the decisions of the Eighth Congress of the WPK.

Saying that the coastal resort should play a leading role in establishing our tourist culture, he indicated an important orientation for expanding and developing our style of tourism on a large scale.

The construction of the Wonsan Kalma coastal tourist area proved once again the immutable truth that the plan and determination of the Party Central Committee are a science, practice and victory, and clearly showed the world how gigantic the level of creation and civilization we want is.

The Wonsan Kalma coastal tourist area, which has been magnificently built as a scenic spot of the DPRK and a world’s coastal tourist city along with the great era of Kim Jong Un, will demonstrate generation after generation the proud name as a 4km-long coast of joy and optimism where hurrah for the Workers’ Party and socialism resounds forever amid the happy laughter of the people and as a 4km-long stretch of beach to be crowded with the people. -0-
