Respected Comrade Kim Jong Un Looks round Site Again

The construction of the residential district of terraced apartment buildings on the bank of the Pothong River is to start in real earnest, true to our Party's great plan for architectural development and its architectural idea based on the people-first principle.

Kim Jong Un, general secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and president of the State Affairs of the DPRK, looked round the site again with secretaries of the Party Central Committee.

Another worthwhile construction project has begun to implement his great plan to build a residential district of modern terraced apartment buildings for our people in the excellent place on the bank of the picturesque river.

Looking round the construction units which had been deployed in the site getting themselves ready to get down to the construction, he learned about the areas assigned for the construction.

He stressed that the construction of the terraced apartment buildings for 800 flats is a project reflecting the plan and intention of the Party Central Committee to give a facelift to the city with the construction of apartment buildings of new styles and to provide highly-developed living environments and conditions for the people. He called on all the construction units to implement our Party's far-reaching policy for the capital city construction with great devotion and unyielding practice, being well cognizant of the importance of the project.

He said he would always pay attention to the project and personally strengthen the organizing and leading of the construction work as the core construction units are responsible for the project.

Elaborate plans by every stage should be mapped out, the construction and guidance scrupulously pushed forward with, equipment and building-materials provided without fail, and the political work for each unit and an emulation among the construction units encouraged, so as to create a model experience in the city construction of apartment buildings in terms of speed and practicality, he said.

Strict supervision over every construction process must be exercised, exact demands made for economizing on building materials as much as possible and preventing all sorts of accidents and excellent construction experience introduced to the capital city construction, he said.

He stressed the need to make a good plan for planting trees in and around the residential quarter and give a more facelift to the parks on the bank of the Pothong River, so as to provide the residents with the best conveniences for living and improve the natural environment.

Stressing the need to improve the quality of the construction to make the most of the peculiar characteristics of different styles and elevation elements of good-looking terraced dwelling houses, he said the construction units should fulfill with success the immediate plans for building dwelling houses in the capital city for this year to demonstrate the modernity of our capital city as the centre of high civilization under socialism and the feature of Juche-oriented architectural development and to display once again our indefatigable ideological and mental power with which we can bring about any epoch-making change and the potentiality of the self-supporting economy being consolidated.

He specially emphasized the need to continue to thoroughly implement the people-first doctrine and the policy on applying formative art to architecture based on correct combination of national identity and modernity set forth by the Party in the construction of the capital city and other local areas in the future, set a new standard in city administration and environmental management in particular, and pay close attention to cultured environmental management such as afforestation.

He stressed the need to grasp once again the importance of house construction, one of urgent problems in improving the people's standard of living, and undertake an innovative practice not only in the construction of 50 000 flats in Pyongyang but also in the construction in provinces.

He said that within the new 5-year plan our Party would make more progress in housing, city management and ecological environment sectors to provide the people with material and cultural well-being with no reason for envying anyone.
