Pyongyang, September 10 (KCNA) -- The
entire people of the DPRK are all afire with ardent patriotic desire to make

Present there were members of the
Presidium of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the WPK and other

The guard of honor of the Korean

A ceremony of hoisting the national flag
of the DPRK took place.
Guards of honor of the KPA solemnly
escorted the national flag of the DPRK to the venue of the ceremony.
The leading officials of the state paid
high tribute to the national flag of the DPRK which has served as an
ever-victorious banner, recording in its flag the great history of the dignity
and glory of the indomitable Korean people for decades along with the birth of
the People's Republic.
The national flag was hoisted amid the
playing of the national anthem of the DPRK.
Looking up to the national flag with
reverence, the participants shared their patriotic will to hold higher and
glorify the greatest and most beautiful country in the world.
The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un
made a commemorative oath to mark the 77th founding anniversary of the DPRK.
At the call of the head of state, the
leading officials of the state solemnly pledged before the sacred national flag
to make devoted efforts to remain boundlessly faithful all the time to the
promotion of the people's well-being and growth and development of the state,
to firmly defend the Constitution of the DPRK and strictly observe its legal
duty, to firmly adhere to the socialist ideology and safeguard the socialist
system and to carry forward the greatness and beauty of the motherland forever
with loyalty to the beloved motherland, as for the responsible members
defending the sovereignty of the DPRK and interests of its people and serving
the state and people.
Kim Jong Un
made a meaningful speech.
On the occasion of National Day, he
extended warm congratulations to the working people across the country and the
officers and soldiers of the Korean People’s Army, who, sharing the
destiny of their motherland, are adding lustre to the prestige and honour of
the Republic with resourceful creation and sincere efforts, as well as to the
families across the country.
And he paid ennobling tribute to the
heroes and patriotic martyrs, who performed truly proud exploits for today and
future of this Korea and remain alive forever in the memory of their motherland,
and extended a warm militant salute to the generals, officers and soldiers of
our army, who have been dispatched for overseas military operations and would
be greeting this day with their glorious national flag in the bosom in the
far-away alien land.
He also extended warm congratulations to
the overseas compatriots who would be greeting their National Day with a
patriotic desire for the prosperity of their homeland.
The cause of building a powerful country
covering 77 years, which started on the day when the birth of a new Korea was
proclaimed, is being reviewed proudly now that our state has attained a
remarkable status, he said, adding no force can reverse the powerful current
towards an era of prosperity, which we have created by ourselves.
Noting that at this moment, when our
glorious and worthwhile struggle of immortal significance has brought into
reality in history the high ambition that with force of unity fostered by the
truth we will lead the whole world by and by, there is an iron truth that we
cherish deep in our hearts, he stressed the truth is that socialism we chose is
the one and only right road. It was on the strength of the justice and truth
embodied in socialism that we have won all the glory we are enjoying today;
having established a powerful political system and built a great national
strength, we will not allow the destiny of our country to be left to any
foreign forces’ devices, he said.
As a symbol of this great and beautiful
Korea, socialism is the cornerstone and inexhaustible dynamic power
guaranteeing the eternal existence of our Republic and its infinite development
and prosperity, he said, adding that as long as socialism of our style thrives,
this will remain an ever peaceful and prosperous land, and our people’s
security and wellbeing will be defended for all ages.
He ardently called for holding higher
the banner of socialism and advancing vigorously along the road of socialism
for the undying glory of our Korea and for our coming generations who should
lead an enduring dignified and happy life in the powerful and prosperous
country and for building a brighter and happier future through an indefatigable
struggle and enterprising efforts befitting Koreans.
The participants were deeply moved by
the ardent speech reflecting the steadfast faith and will of Kim Jong Un
to hold the great DPRK and its people in esteem as the strongest country and
the most dignified people in the world, and his earnest request calling on them
to become vanguard fighters in carrying out the sacred cause for overall
national prosperity and true servants of the people.
When Kim Jong Un finished his
speech, enthusiastic cheers of "hurrah!" burst out to shake the
venue.
The leading officials of the state made
a pledge of loyalty to uphold with a single mind the ideology and leadership of
the great Comrade Kim Jong Un who is ushering in a new era of great
changes and miracles to be specially recorded in the history of the DPRK's
growth and development and to make devoted efforts for the eternal security and
prosperity of the glorious DPRK which will shine forever.
Respected Comrade Kim Jong Un Gives Field Guidance at Construction
Site of Kusong City Hospital
Pyongyang, September 9 (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, gave
field guidance at the construction site of the Kusong City Hospital on
September 8.
The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un
was accompanied by Jo Yong Won, Ju Chang Il, Kim Jae Ryong, Kim Yong Su and
other senior officials of the Central Committee of the WPK.
He heard from officials concerned a
report on the progress made in the construction.
He appreciated the efforts of the
builders to achieve signal successes in the construction of the regional
hospital by carrying through the intention of the Party Central Committee,
which declared this year as the first year of the revolution in public health
and gives top priority to the construction of the model city and county
hospitals that will lead the overall rejuvenation of public health of the
country, through resolute labor struggle.
He went round various places of the
hospital to learn about its construction.
The construction of regional hospitals,
the start of a great revolution to transform public health facilities across
the country before any other sector, is the most responsible and important work
to ensure that regional people receive advanced medical services in their
regions just like in the capital, he said, adding that this is a substantial
and new qualitative change of the region that our Party looks forward to and a
meaningful progress in accelerating the building of a highly civilized and
prospering state.
He noted that the public health
revolution which is being carried on in parallel with the nationwide revolution
in regional industry is the most urgent task which will give fresh vital power
to our socialist public health, and that this work should be associated with
absolute principle and the view on service of our state which subordinates and
orients everything to the promotion of the people's health and well-being.
And he referred to a series of
deviations revealed in the construction.
Saying that all the systems and elements
of the hospital should be combined in a scientific, practical and artistic way
in the many-sided aspects of functionality, convenience and architectural
beauty, he clarified his opinion on important issues of finishing the
construction of the hospital.
Stressing that preparations for
operating the hospital should be made in a responsible manner as its
construction has entered the final stage, he set forth the tasks related to the
opening of the hospital.
