Kim Jong Un, chairman of the Workers' Party of Korea, chairman of the State Affairs Commission of the DPRK and supreme commander of the armed forces of the DPRK, together with his wife Ri Sol Ju provided on-site guidance at the Sinchang Fish Farm on April 16.

He was accompanied by Choe Ryong Hae, member of the Presidium of the Political Bureau of the WPK Central Committee, first vice-chairman of the DPRK State Affairs Commission and president of the Presidium of the DPRK Supreme People's Assembly, and leading officials of the WPK Central Committee.

He was greeted by Army General Kim Su Gil, director of the General Political Bureau of the Korean People’s Army, Army General No Kwang Chol, minister of the People’s Armed Forces, and officials of the fish farm.

As he made the rounds of a newly built hall dedicated to education with revolutionary relics, the Supreme Leader said he felt deeper yearning for President Kim Il Sung and Chairman Kim Jong Il who had been so solicitous of the people and service personnel all their lives. The present Sinchang Fish Farm is unthinkable apart from the devoted efforts of the Chairman who inspected the farm on several occasions during the Arduous March and forced march in particular to wisely lead the efforts to upgrade it into a model unit of fish farming and a world fish-farming base, he recalled.

He acquainted himself with the management and operation of the farm as he looked round fish ponds, hatching grounds and other places. Saying that the KPA did a lot of work to put the country’s fish farming science and technology on a high level, he called on the whole country to follow the example of the army in carrying through the Party policy of fish farming, thereby carrying out the lifetime wish of the Chairman who had given his heart and soul to provide the people and service personnel with tasty and nutritious fish in abundance.

The Sinchang Fish Farm should continue to take the lead in putting fish farming on a Juche, scientific, modern, industrial and intensive basis so as to live up to the Party's trust and expectation that it should perform the mission and role as a standard fish farm serving as the yardstick in the development of the country’s fish farming technology and a model and educational unit in developing the country’s fish farming, he emphasized.
