Era of Prosperity of Pyongyang Brought by Tireless Guidance
World of His Devotion Our People Recollect through Figures
The respected Comrade General Secretary
Here are touching facts associated with his painstaking efforts.
The respected Comrade General Secretary personally guided on more than 1, 000 layouts so that they embody our Party’s people-first architectural ideas and the architectural development plan, including the issue of reforming the elevation of flats in a modern way and making buildings uneven in their height while linking stylobates and the issue of building an overpass in the form of a building.
The respected Comrade General Secretary has unfolded a bright blueprint for building a new modern town in the Hwasong area drawing on the success of the first year for the construction of 50 000 flats in Pyongyang and wisely led it.
He personally perfected 1630-odd layouts related to the first-stage construction of the Hwasong area. The issues he taught included the one of exalting modernity in the city beautification by increasing the proportion of dry finishing, the one of increasing the political character of streets by installing catchphrases reflecting national policy and the one of ensuring convenience of residents by arranging public catering, commercial and service amenities in residential quarters and linking trunk road and feeder roads.
He completed nearly 1 000 layouts to build the second-stage section in the Hwasong area as a special street with the appearance of a modern city section and a model street and standard of the era.
Over 660 is the number of the layouts the respected Comrade General Secretary perfected one by one to build the third-stage district in the Hwasong area into a quarter with another distinction different from the first- and second-stage districts so that a higher level of material and cultural wellbeing can be provided to the people.
In the period from the construction of Songhwa Street to the building of 10 000 flats at the fourth stage in the Hwasong area, he visited the construction sites for more than ten times and made painstaking efforts to apply the people-first architectural idea of our Party in the construction of each building.
Infinite are, indeed, the painstaking efforts the respected Comrade General Secretary, possessed of the firm will to bring about a definite result in the work for carrying out the promise with the people and promoting their well-being, made to provide our people with happy cradles and wonderful ideal streets every year.
Under the noble world of devoted service for the people’s wellbeing of the great father, flourishing socialist living spaces symbolic of the dynamic advance of our own style of change and development have been built one after another, and thereby the plan for building 50 000 flats in Pyongyang decided by the Eighth Party Congress was successfully over-fulfilled and the capital city construction that was basically aimed at solving the housing problem has switched over to a higher phase of transforming the overall appearance of the capital city on a large scale.
Our people unanimously say that untold is the fervent love for the people and devotion made by the respected Comrade General Secretary to bring about such enormous paradises of civilization.
