Politics 2024.12.21.



The flood victims of North Phyongan, Jagang and Ryanggang provinces who have spent meaningful days with unforgettable, valuable memories in Pyongyang, the capital city of the DPRK, under the warm loving care of the great father greeted a time of emotion to go back their native places that have wonderfully turned into the socialist fairyland and paradise of the people after eradicating the aftermath of natural disaster.

The elderly, nursing mothers, honoured disabled ex-soldiers and schoolchildren came to go back their new homes wonderfully built after staying in the capital city for more than dream-like 120 days, enjoying privileges to be envied by the world according to the unprecedented special measures after state-building taken by the Party and the state for the people who suffered disasters.

They sincerely presented letters of thanks to the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un, shedding tears of great emotion.

Meetings of those flood victims were held to adopt letters of loyalty to Kim Jong Un on Thursday.

Present there were Kim Jong Sun and Choe Tong Myong, department directors of the Central Committee of the Workers’ Party of Korea, and other officials of the WPK Central Committee together with the victims and schoolchildren from the flood-afflicted areas.

Letters of loyalty to Kim Jong Un were courteously read out at the meetings.

All the flood victims in their letters expressed their deep thanks to the benevolent father for saving them who lost their homes and properties and whose lives hang in the balance due to the flood and for taking all measures for them and for giving them all blessings, regarding the sacrificing devotion for the people as greatest pleasure.

Saying that Kim Jong Un guided a rescue operation despite the cold rain at an airport, learned about the damage in the flood-afflicted areas on a small rubber boat, visited the tents used by them despite the midsummer heat and showed warm benevolence for them, they noted that he is their benevolent and thoughtful, real father who went to children who suffered misfortune before anyone else, encouraged them and relieved them of distress.

They said that they did not think that Kim Jong Un would personally greet them and make a welcome address full of blood ties when they went to the April 25 Hotel and bases for military parade amid the warm welcome by Pyongyangites after taking a special train and buses.

They recollected their emotion of the day when they ran to Kim Jong Un and wept at the sight of him who said that they must have taken much trouble coming all the way here and justly deserved such grand welcome and sincere hospitality, hoping that they would enjoy a comfortable and happy life without worry until they go back their native homes that will be turned into better ones.

Saying that the days when they lived in the houses of love provided by the respected Marshal Kim Jong Un are the moments of happiness full of legendary tales to be handed down forever, they noted that they are expressing happy “concerns” that their parents, husbands and children would not recognize them if they go back their native places after their children grew tall and women and the elderly are fine under the loving care of Kim Jong Un who provided their children with new school uniforms and things, took warm care of them while watching a demonstration lesson and personally listed menu for the flood victims.

They wrote in their letters that children and adults passed sleepless nights while ardently yearning after Kim Jong Un, keeping their diaries with the desire every day to convey his boundless love and benevolence generation after generation, noting that officials, employees and doctors of the lodging quarters kindly looked after them and they were treated as special guests everywhere they go, including Mt Kumgang, Mt Myohyang, Ryongsupho Bathing Beach and the Yangdok Hot Spring Resort.

Schoolchildren expressed their determination to grow up as reliable pillars who uphold the motherland in future and thus live up to the warm loving care and benevolence of Kim Jong Un with loyalty, saying that they studied to their heart’s content in the excellent classrooms provided by him and by the good teachers sent by him while eating tasty and nutritious food and growing up physically and mentally.

Saying that flood victims who would be in despair and grief in other countries became the people envied by the world under the care of the Party, they added that the inhabitants and schoolchildren have undergone a dramatic change in their destiny and become to realize more keenly why the WPK is called the mother party and why our country and social system are called the people’s country and people’s world.

Saying that the masters of the land enjoyed only happiness when Kim Jong Un made a thorny journey to build "rural cultural cities" in the afflicted areas, they expressed their gratitude to him who is taking care of the people across the country and providing them with a highly civilized and happy life with his boundless love and devotion.

They expressed their determination to turn their native lands into the places full of the pride for high-yielding and good to live in with a single mind to firmly defend the happiness provided by all the efforts of the great father.

The participants in the meetings in their letters wholeheartedly wished the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un, their destiny, the whole of their life and the dear father of the great socialist family, good health, with the unanimous mind of all the flood victims and the people across the country.

Then, the letters of loyalty to Kim Jong Un were adopted with great emotion and enthusiastic applauses of the participants.

All the participants were filled with their firm determination to steadfastly cover the road of repayment for the eternal prosperity of the socialist country generation after generation, single-mindedly remaining faithful to their father Kim Jong Un, expressing their great happiness and emotion for holding in high esteem the great leader of the people who is the greatest in the world as the dear father of the great socialist family.
