Pyongyang, September 19 (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, guided on the spot the construction of the Sinuiju Combined Greenhouse Farm and the work for local development on September 18.
The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un was accompanied by Jo Yong Won and Pak Jong Chon, secretaries of the WPK Central Committee, and Kim Jae Ryong, department director of the WPK Central Committee.
He was greeted on the spot by commanding officers of the large combined units of the services of the Korean People’s Army and the Paektusan Hero Youth Shock Brigade involved in the construction and officials of design and relevant institutions.
Thanks to the far-reaching plan and direct guidance of
Kim Jong Un to turn the border area into a thriving area which embodies modern, original and national characters, different types of greenhouses, a vegetable processing factory, storage facilities, a scientific and technological research and dissemination base, trial cultivation greenhouses, dwelling houses and various cultural life bases are being built in a unique way in the vast area of Wihwa Island in the northwestern end of the country, presenting a thrilling spectacular scene of an unprecedentedly large greenhouse group, a “big farm town”.
Kim Jong Un went round the glass hydroponic greenhouse section, the vegetable science research centre and other places of the construction site to learn in detail about the construction.
Watching the dramatically changing looks of the area, he expressed satisfaction, saying that the service personnel and young people are really powerful and that the island area, which was treated as barren land only a year ago due to the flood hitting it every year, has become a “treasure island” with the great potential to lead the radical development of the regional economy and the improvement of the material life of the local people.
Saying that the construction of the Sinuiju Combined Greenhouse Farm serves as an important occasion of clearly showing once again the higher stage and progressive process of the regional rejuvenation led by the WPK, he stressed that through the change in the area, he has been more convinced it is possible to successfully turn all areas of the country into the people’s paradise within ten or twenty years.
He highly appreciated the staunch spirit of serving the people and efforts of the officers and men of the construction units and young vanguard who are devoting themselves to the eternal prosperity of the country with confidence and courage to transform the era with their own efforts and asked the officials to convey without fail to the builders his special thanks and ardent call for building a monumental edifice demonstrating the eye-opening advance speed and development of Korean-style socialism in the northern end of the country and presenting it to the Ninth Congress of the WPK as a gift.
Acquainting himself with the progress in the construction project for the local development and its long-term plan, he pointed out a series of deviations. He said that it is the core requirement of the WPK’s policy on regional development to make the regional rejuvenation represent the advance and development of the state and the ideal appearance of regional areas the true looks of socialist Korea, stressing once again that the design sector should put efforts into making a meticulous calculation of economic effectiveness and profitability and applying optimum options while ensuring functionality and modernity in architectural design.
He noted that there should be no slightest fault in the construction of the Sinuiju Combined Greenhouse Farm as it is the work the WPK has organized on the largest scale for the independent and diversified development of the regional economy and is an important matter whose result is directly linked to the improvement of the material life of the regional people. And he indicated detailed tasks and ways for successfully completing the construction of the combined greenhouse farm, including the issue of putting the farm management on an IT and automated basis at a high level, the issue of improving the environment around the construction site in a qualitative way, regarding it as a key project progress indicator equivalent to the one of the assembling of facilities and equipment and the issue of creating landscape and overall green area in the section of the permanent embankments in an aesthetic and scientific way.
He expressed expectation and belief that all the soldier-builders and members of the youth shock brigade would give full play to great mental strength, power of persistent execution and enthusiastic fighting spirit peculiar to the revolutionary army and heroic youth in the new era in the construction of the large-scale greenhouse farm and local development and thus make a report on their proud achievements made in the construction for regional change to the Ninth Congress of the WPK. -0-
