Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un saw that food reserves of the Chairman of the State Affairs Commission were sent to the people in the afflicted area as he took a series of measures to promptly stabilize the living of the inhabitants of Taechong-ri of Unpha County who were struck by an unexpected natural disaster.

A convoy of trucks carrying bags of grain arrived in Unpha County on the morning of August 9.

A meeting took place in the county town to convey the food sent by the Supreme Leader to the residents in the flood-stricken area.

It was attended by the county and ri officials and farmers.

Upon the authorization of the Supreme Leader, Ri Il Hwan, member of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea and vice-chairman of the WPK Central Committee, made a conveying address.

He said that upon receiving the report that lots of houses had been submerged by a flash flood in Unpha County, the Supreme Leader visited the flood-hit area, laying aside all other affairs. He referred to the fact that grief-stricken over the loss of homes and all the possessions of the people, the leader took immediate measures to stabilize the living of the inhabitants as soon as possible.

The Supreme Leader, who sat up all night with anxiety, visited several places in Taechong-ri along muddy roads early next morning and planned a grand operation for building model dwelling houses in a short time, he said.

Thanks to his warm love and great care, misfortune will certainly turn into a blessing, he noted.

Recalling the deep gratitude they felt on the day when they met in tears the Supreme Leader who personally drove a car to the village, other speakers lauded him as the benevolent father of the people who spares nothing to relieve them of their sufferings.

They said they were determined to turn the Taechong area into a good place with redoubled efforts by keeping in mind the great care shown by the Supreme Leader, and demonstrate the truth that all blessings would come when they trust and follow their leader by gathering good harvest from the fertile land they would restore.
