The DPRK recently suffered severe damage from heavy rain, flash flood and typhoon that hit it in succession.

The Workers’ Party of Korea has set the campaign for recovery from their damage as the most important front to relieve the people of discomforts and sufferings.

Immediate all-Party and all-nation emergency measures have been taken and construction force and means urgently dispatched to afflicted areas. Elite divisions of Party members of the capital city were organized and committed to the rehabilitation areas in North and South Hamgyong provinces and the Korean People’s Army units sent to the Komdok area. Powerful construction force was also dispatched to the disaster-stricken areas across the country including North and South Hwanghae and Kangwon provinces and Kaesong City.

It is the intention of the WPK to give top priority and absolutize the people’s safety and convenience, however uphill and costly the tasks are, and to not simply restore the damaged buildings or living environment to their original state, but wonderfully rebuild them to meet the demand and aspirations of the people and the requirements of the times and to be flawless even in the distant future.

In hearty response to the call of the Party Central Committee, fresh achievements have been made in the theatre of relief operation throughout the country day after day.

Members of the divisions of Party members of the capital city have mounted a 24-7 construction campaign in a three-dimensional way to press on with the reconstruction.

The KPA service personnel are working day and night to achieve fresh successes by exploiting every possibility.

Shock brigade members from across the country have also joined the fierce battle for rehabilitation.

Production picks up in relevant sectors and units that are responsible for the supply of materials, equipment and supplies for reconstruction.

Collective innovation and increased production drives are well underway in various economic sectors to ensure the preferential supply of cement, steel products, timber and others badly needed for rehabilitation projects. The rail transport sector carefully organizes and commands transport to carry freight needed for reconstruction without a moment’s delay with a viewpoint that they are providing wartime transportation.
