As he took a heavy responsibility as the Chairman of the Workers’ Party of Korea at the Seventh Party Congress on May 9 2016, Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un said:
“Cherishing deep in my heart the greatest trust and expectations of you who have entrusted me with the heavy responsibility of the Chairman of the dignified Workers’ Party of Korea, I will fight on undauntedly, offering myself without regret in the sacred struggle to hasten the final victory of the cause of the Juche revolution pioneered in Mt Paektu; and I pledge myself to remain faithful to the revolution, holding our people in high esteem invariably and selflessly at any time, at any place and at any moment, even if my body is torn to pieces and I fall.”
He developed the WPK into an invincible one which forms an integrated whole with the people by faithfully serving them. This is one of the exploits he performed by leading the Party.
Having defined the essence of Kimilsungism-Kimjongilism, as the people-first principle, he clarified an original idea that the Party’s mode of existence lies in selfless, devoted service for the people.
He made sure that the Party directed all its activities to the good of the people and solved all the problems arising in accomplishing the cause of socialism by relying on them.
It was three years ago when the northern areas of the country suffered devastating flood damage.
Saying there is no greater emergency for the Party than the people’s pain and there can be no more important revolutionary task than to repair the damage caused to people by calamity, the Supreme Leader saw to it that the Party Central Committee issued an appeal and called on all the people to concentrate all energies of the country on the rehabilitation of flood-hit northern areas.
As he has never thought about the existence of the Party and the progress of socialism, apart from the destiny and life of the people, and has an ardent will to brave all storms without vacillation for the good of the people, he guided the reconstruction on the spot and took a series of measures to stabilize the people’s living.
Though many obstacles stood in the way of socialist construction and the people’s livelihood due to harsh sanctions of hostile forces, he led gigantic construction projects to victory by dint of his outstanding political acumen and leadership.
Under his guidance, a lot of medical service bases and new streets and factories sprang up in recent years.
As he looked round the construction site of Ryomyong Street in one early morning of March 2017, he said that he can visualize the happy looks of the people who will live there and he feels happy with a thought that he can fulfil his promise to finish its construction by the Day of the Sun that year.
When the construction of the Pyongyang Dental Hygiene Supplies Factory was in full swing, he frequently got familiar with its construction and as he made the rounds of the completed factory he emphasized the need to ensure the normal provision of quality products to the people so that they can enjoy substantial benefits from them.
