Respected Comrade Kim Jong Un Gives Field Guidance at Newly-built Facilities in Wonsan Kalma Coastal Tourist Area
Pyongyang, June 26 (KCNA) -- The respected Comrade 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 newly-built facilities in the Wonsan Kalma Coastal Tourist Area on June 24.
He was accompanied by secretaries of the Central Committee of the WPK and major commanding officers of the Korean People's Army.
Going round the newly-built Kalma Tourist Railway Station, Comrade Kim Jong Un acquainted himself in detail with its construction and preparations for its operation.
He praised the builders for their efforts to build a modern railway station in just one year, saying that it seemed as if it was a few days ago when he chose the construction site near the coastal tourist area in order to promote the convenience for passengers visiting the tourist area.
He said that all the elements of the railway station were harmoniously arranged in conformity with the Party's idea on architectural aesthetics, principle of practical layout and requirements of the times and another progress made in the construction of the railway station. He noted with satisfaction that it would be an important occasion for establishing the standard for remodeling the local railway stations and changing the perception of it.
Saying that the importance of the rational combination of technical design and architectural design, intended to fully meet the specific technical and special requirements in the construction of railway station, has been proved again, he clarified the principled issues arising in putting the design of railway infrastructure on a scientific, functional and specialized basis.
Referring to some shortcomings revealed in the final construction of passenger station, he said that the construction sector should direct main efforts to completing a more detailed system of evaluating quality control of construction, building up the construction guidance force and raising the technical and skill levels of builders.
He also said that it is necessary to continuously supplement and perfect the construction law including a legal regulation that requires the construction units to take responsibility for the structural quality and repair and maintain the original state of the structures for a certain period as well as strengthening the role of construction supervisory institutions.
Comrade Kim Jong Un mentioned his idea of modernizing the railway stations in provincial seats across the country on the basis of the successes and experience gained in the construction of the railway station, and instructed to give precedence to the scientific design based on the features and functional demand of the relevant areas, including passenger and freight traffic capacity, and to draft and examine the budget bill.
He set forth a series of tasks including the issue of taking measures to supply vehicles and equipment for various purposes necessary for the management of the railway station and the issue of composing and operating trains for the exclusive use of tourists.
Then Comrade Kim Jong Un visited the newly-built first-aid post in the Wonsan Kalma coastal tourist area.
He went round various places of the first-aid post, including emergency room, operating room, observation room and examination room, and learned about its construction.
He said it is important to build up the ranks of medical workers of the first-aid post and improve the quality of medical service.
Pointing to some shortcomings revealed in the arrangement and design of elements inside the facility, Comrade Kim Jong Un repeatedly stressed that it is important to establish a system for properly drawing up the technical assignments, a prerequisite process and basis for the construction project, and that in order to optimize the design and improve the functionality and specialization of the facility, it is necessary to thoroughly apply the Party's requirement for strengthening the tripartite consultation among the designing, construction and operation units in the deliberation of designs and construction.
Comrade Kim Jong Un said it is essential to further raise the specialized level of design, strengthen the political guidance so that all the processes of construction including design, deliberation, consultation and budgeting are strictly conducted according to scientific and legal procedures under the construction law, and direct greater efforts to improving the practical qualifications of designers since modern hospitals are to be continuously built in 20 cities and counties every year.
Comrade Kim Jong Un clarified the tasks for operation and medical service of the first-aid post, including enough supply of first-aid medicines and consumables necessary for the efficient and normal operation of various equipment.
Respected Comrade Kim Jong Un Supervises Tests of Major Weapons Organized by Defence Science Research Institutes
Pyongyang, June 26 (KCNA) -- The respected Comrade 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, on June 25 supervised tests of major weapons organized by defence scientific research institutes under the plan for modernizing artillery and missile forces to attain the five-year goal for national defence development.
Among the spectators were Jo Chun Ryong, secretary of the WPK Central Committee, Kim Jong Sik, first vice department director of the WPK Central Committee, Pak Jong Chon, advisor to the Ministry of National Defence, Jang Chang Ha, general director of the Missile Administration, Kim Yong Hwan, president of the Academy of Defence Sciences, Kim Kang Il, vice-minister of National Defence and general director of the General Armaments Bureau, Kim Myong Son, director of the Armaments Examination Bureau of the Ministry of National Defence, Yu Chang Son, director of the Artillery Bureau of the General Staff, and the commanders of large combined units of the Korean People's Army.
The tests analyzed and evaluated the combat characteristics of the upgraded 240mm-caliber 24-tubular multiple rocket launcher system, the power of special mission warhead of tactical ballistic missile, and the hit accuracy of shells with an extended firing range of the 155mm self-propelled gun-howitzer.
The upgraded 24-tubular multiple rocket launcher system is an improved type corps-level firepower system and its firing range has increased to 90 km. All elements of its firepower system were automated and a self-steered precise guidance system was introduced.
And the special mission warhead of the tactical ballistic missile is aimed at inflicting fatal damage on major targets including airfields, ports and power facilities of the enemy.
The test of shells with extended firing range of 65 km of the 155mm self-propelled gun-howitzer, too, is of great military significance.
Expressing great satisfaction over the results of the tests, Comrade Kim Jong Un told the leading cadres accompanying him that he was pleased to show a new state of the development of the national defence introduced at the Second Plenary Meeting of the Ninth Central Committee of the WPK.
Comrade Kim Jong Un said that today's tests of division-level and corps-level firepower systems serve as an occasion of proving and giving confidence in the great technological progress made in implementing our Party's policy on building the armed forces for bringing about a change in the fire posture on the southern border and adhering to the three principles of putting weapons on an automatic, long-range and ultra-precision basis.
He said that the WPK's line on self-reliant defence is being thoroughly guaranteed by our distinguished defence science talents and defence sci-tech capability that pioneer the unique course of development nonstop without hesitation by relying on the highly ingenious development mode.
Saying that the present international situation, in which sovereignty can be defended and existence guaranteed only by complete upper-hand in strength, makes it unnecessary to add any rhetoric to explaining why the bolstering up of the defence capabilities is the indispensable first national strategic work, he added that it eloquently shows the validity of our Party's line of self-defence and the irreversibility of radical development of our armed forces.
Referring to the need to prioritize the development of artillery and missile forces of the Army, he stressed the immediate task for developing the national defence to be carried out during the Five-Year Plan.
As he has recently emphasized so often, our Party's policy on self-defence is not merely for the enhancement of the defensive function relying on defensive means but for further strengthening the deadly and destructive offensive posture to make no enemy dare to confront, and this is a defensive concept in the army-building and military action practice we talk about, he said.
To make the enemies feel constant uneasiness and fear is just an important aspect of the exercise of war deterrent, he said, affirming that we would make the enemies recognize that the long-range strike means of our armed forces have been replaced with upgraded ones in the shortest possible time.
Recalling that the Second Plenary Meeting of the Ninth Central Committee of the WPK clarified the strategic tasks of weighty significance in upgrading and developing the military strength, he called on all the defence science research institutes and munitions production enterprises to turn out in the drive to carry them out.
Comrade Kim Jong Un repeatedly stressed that it is the steadfast will and strategic policy of our Party to build the most powerful artillery forces.

The Fatherland Liberation War gave the strong experience that the bloody history should not be repeated any longer and the truth of history that the dignity and national interests of a state are guaranteed only by the strongest strength, they said, stressing that if justice is not be trampled down by injustice, one should have built up the tremendous national power which no one dares to provoke. This is the immutable creed we cherish in their minds on the day of struggle against U.S. imperialism, they noted.

They called for bringing up and placing their children at the post for national defence and making a genuine contribution to bolstering up the country's defence capabilities, always bearing in mind that national defence is the most sacred duty of citizens.
They expressed their resolve to further consolidate the revolutionary position and the class position of the Korean revolution, rallied close around the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un, glorify the history of great victory generation after generation and demonstrate the revolutionary spirit and mettle of the Korean women in the grand struggle to implement the decisions of the Ninth Congress of the Workers' Party of Korea.
Youth and Students in DPRK Meet to Swear Revenge
Pyongyang, June 25 (KCNA) -- Youth and students of the DPRK gathered at the Youth Park Open-Air Theatre in Pyongyang Municipality on June 24 to vow vengeance on the occasion of June 25, the day of struggle against U.S. imperialism.
Present there were officials of the youth league, youth and students. First, a lecturer of the Central Class Education House told them about the thrice-cursed crimes committed by the U.S. imperialists against the Korean people during the Korean War.
The Korean War ignited by the U.S. imperialists was a war of aggression unleashed to stifle the young DPRK in its cradle and realize their ambition for world domination, and it was a war of the most barbarous massacre and destruction unprecedented in the human history of wars, the lecturer said.
Members of the artistic information team of the Central Committee of the Socialist Patriotic Youth League sang a song reflecting the will of the young people to make the enemy pay for the blood shed by our people at any cost if the enemy dare to bring clouds of war to hang over this land again and the young people's strong spirit of defending the country.
Then speeches were made.
The speakers said that every time they greet June 25, when the U.S. imperialists ignited the Korean War to inflict an unprecedented holocaust on the DPRK, which was vibrant with the joy of a new life, they are filled with the towering hatred against the U.S. imperialists, the sworn enemy.
Saying that only when we have the might of justice and powerful military strength in the present world where the imperialists' outrageous moves for aggression are rampant, can we defend the destiny of the country and the people, they expressed their resolve to fulfill their mission and duty as members of the new generation of Juche Korea and descendants of the victorious wartime generation in the struggle for comprehensive national rejuvenation with the clear outlook on the arch enemy.
Youth and students loudly shouted slogans for annihilating the enemy, with the immutable will to fight the enemy that the imperialists' aggressive nature never changes even though time passes and that we should mercilessly settle accounts with the enemy by force of arms.
Newspapers on Anti-Imperialist Class Consciousness
Pyongyang, June 25 (KCNA) -- Leading newspapers of the DPRK Thursday editorially call upon all the people to firmly arm themselves with anti-imperialist class consciousness.
Class consciousness forms the core in the spirit of defending socialism, and the strength of the people who have a high class consciousness is irresistible, Rodong Sinmun says, and goes on:
It is the firm determination and unshakable will of the Workers' Party of Korea to further consolidate the revolutionary position and class position by firmly equipping all the people with clear outlook on the arch enemy and anti-imperialist class consciousness, as our style socialism vigorously advances and the country is replete with the spirit of prosperity.
It is the firm truth clearly proved through our revolutionary practice that only the people who have cherished the burning hatred against the enemy and retaliatory will to annihilate them can always emerge victorious in the anti-imperialist class struggle.
It is class consciousness that we should not delay or neglect even for a moment, no matter how the situation and environment may change, and it is class education to train people to be the owners of high class consciousness by constantly awakening and training them.
All the places where we work and live, including all fields of socialist construction and all sectors of national economy, are the places of invisible confrontation with imperialism, though there is no gun report.
There can be no concession or compromise in the class struggle and one should resolutely fight against the imperialists to the last. This is the truth of the class struggle and the fighting creed to be cherished by all the people.
It is the intention of the Workers' Party of Korea to firmly prepare the Korean people and service personnel to be defenders of the revolution and vanguard fighters of the class in the hot wind of class education and thus thoroughly and mercilessly control and frustrate any form of provocative acts of the enemy with overwhelming counteraction and bring earlier the overall prosperity of our state.
The people with strong anti-imperialist class consciousness always emerge victorious.
Minju Joson calls upon all the officials and working people to firmly defend our ideology and social system from all sorts of enemies' moves and achieve a fresh victory of Korean-style socialism with clear anti-imperialist, anti-U.S. class consciousness.
