The noble intention and benevolent care of the Workers’ Party of Korea, which regards it as its sacred duty and an immutable mode of its existence to uphold the people as Heaven and firmly defend them, reached first to all those who suffered misfortune from the grand natural disaster. This produces legendary tales of devotion for the people one after another, stirring the whole country.
The respected Comrade
Under the direct arrangement by the Central Committee of the Workers’ Party of Korea, strong steps were taken to give them an emergency assistance. The April 25 Hostel and the base for military parade training in the capital city have been fully provided with conditions for education, nursing, living, relaxation, recreation and medical treatment for preschoolers, schoolchildren and inhabitants from the flood-hit areas.
Children, schoolchildren, the elderly, the sick, honoured disabled ex-soldiers and nursing mothers, numbering more than 13 000, left the relevant areas by train amid the warm send-off by officials of the Party and power organs and inhabitants in North Phyongan, Jagang and Ryanggang provinces. They arrived in Pyongyang on August 15 and went to their lodging quarters.
With excitement and pleasure, the families of flood victims entered the lodging quarters associated with the warm care and sincerity of the great Party Central Committee that always devotes its absolute and ardent love to the honourable service for the people.
When he arrived, the flood victims broke into enthusiastic cheers.
They raised cheers of emotion, looking up to the respected Marshal with tears in their eyes, as he came to their lodging quarters despite the fierce heat with the paternal feeling of the father who greets his own flesh and blood, after repeatedly showing the great love and benevolence lest all of them should live in gloom.
The compound was full of emotion, displaying the true features peculiar to the DPRK where the leader and the people are united with affection and obligation.
He made a welcome speech.
He expressed thanks to the flood victims from different regions for having trusted and followed the measures taken by the Party and the government as well as his pleasure over meeting them in Pyongyang.
Referring to the efforts made by the Party and the government to provide with sincerity living conditions and an environment for the elderly, nursing mothers, honoured disabled ex-soldiers and children who experienced inconveniences in the afflicted areas near the border and in the northern inland parts of the country, he stressed that utmost sincerity would be offered to them with the main stress on their health and convenience as an absolute standard.
It is heartbreaking that people in some parts and regions of the country experienced mental pain owing to the unexpected natural disaster, but in the face of the pain and trials our grand socialist family has been rallied more closely and united more firmly with an ennobling feeling, he said, referring to the steadfast will of the Party and the government to turn the present disaster into a watershed for regional efflorescence and the bright prospect.
He warmly wished that all of the flood victims will have an unforgettable and meaningful time while staying in the capital city of their beloved motherland, asking the officials and employees of the April 25 Hostel and the base for military parade training, as well as others concerned, to work hard so that these disaster victims can be in a better condition than before, when returning to their dear native places that will be transformed beyond recognition.
