Deeply Implanting Revolutionary Spirit of Self-reliance


Valuable Spiritual Assets


One day in November 2024, the respected Comrade General Secretary Kim Jong Un inspected sites of reconstruction of flood-hit areas in North Phyongan Province.

Seeing the panorama of the construction site for a while, he said that he always had a heavy heart for the memory of the heart-rending sight of the flooded villages he had seen during the emergency rescue of the local people from flood risk just some months ago, but that day he was really pleased to see sturdy banks and rural houses of various urban styles rising up competitively as they boasted of their original form in the safe zone. We made a worthwhile and correct decision and have brought about a great change with our own efforts by believing in them, he said happily.

Officials were deeply moved, looking up to the respected Comrade General Secretary wearing a broad smile.

From the very moment the people suffered the flood damage, the respected Comrade General Secretary has made ceaseless journey of devotion for providing them with wonderful cradles to be envied by the world as soon as possible.

Our great father learned about the damage in the flood-afflicted areas on a small rubber boat, visited the tents used by flood victims despite the midsummer heat and left the traces of his sacred guidance at that reconstruction site as well.

Thanks to his warm sincerity for people, such modern new dwelling houses could be built in the island area of the northwestern part of the country.

Looking round the officials full of emotion, he said: We have come to believe in our strength once again through the on-going huge rehabilitation campaign and I regard it as mental wealth more important than any other results.

Listening to his meaningful instructions, the officials keenly realized once again that the self-reliance is, indeed, the driving force for performing world-startling miracles and the eternal treasured sword of development and prosperity.


True Meaning He Taught at Construction Site


Once, the respected Comrade General Secretary visited the Wonsan Kalma Coastal Tourist Area under construction.

Enjoying a bird’s-eye view of the construction site for a while, the respected Comrade General Secretary said that the area, where reeds overgrew and only sand dust was flying about, transformed beyond recognition, adding that it is quite unbelievable that land leveling and afforestation and greening were simultaneously pushed forward together with the construction project to be concluded in just a few months’ time.

Officials were greatly excited by his high appraisal.

The respected Comrade General Secretary said that the construction of the Wonsan Kalma Coastal Tourist Area is not merely construction work but an acute political confrontation with imperialists.

Then he stressed on building the Wonsan Kalma Coastal Tourist Area on the world level to fully demonstrate the spirit of Juche Korea steadily advancing on the strength of self-reliance and self-development, the reserved strength of our state and its tremendous economic potential to the world.

Listening to his words, the officials fell deep in thought.

Today’s transformation was unthinkable apart from the wise leadership of the respected Comrade General Secretary who personally initiated the construction of coastal tourist area of national value and energetically led it in order to let our people enjoy highly civilized life as soon as possible.

Indeed, the respected Comrade General Secretary’s field guidance served as an important occasion of implanting once again in the minds of the officials the truth that there is no goal unattainable when they struggle in the revolutionary spirit of self-reliance with the firm belief in their own strength.
