Children at Changgwang Kindergarten in Pyongyang in 2015.

After acquainting himself in detail with health and living conditions of orphaned children at the baby home and orphanage in Pyongyang in February seven years ago, the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un stressed that abundant food, warm bed, excellent educational conditions and environment are a prerequisite for bringing up children properly.

Under his meticulous care, the Pyongyang Baby Home and Pyongyang Orphanage were wonderfully built on the banks of the picturesque Taedong River as befits the cradle of happy life for orphaned children in April 2015 and baby homes, orphanages and primary and middle schools for orphans were built in all provincial seats in succession.

On June 1 2015, young residents of the Wonsan Baby Home and Orphanage cut inaugural tape with their small hands.

Special trucks appeared to carry fishes and dried persimmons to the orphaned children in baby homes and orphanages throughout the country and they are supplied with new clothes, fruits and different nourishing foods according to seasons at their homes of happiness thanks to his loving care of making them lead a bright and happy life.

When he visited a worker’s family on newly-built Changjon Street, he blessed the future of the offspring of the family and replied to lots of letters from kindergarteners and schoolchildren who expressed their pride and hopes. He personally drew five red stars as a reply to the letter from a child who did lots of good things.

He, who dedicates his precious time for the sake of the children, had photographs taken with young children at the People’s Open-air Ice Rink, group members of schoolchildren’s palaces in different areas and campers who were on mountaineering.

Thanks to the loving care of Kim Jong Un who spares nothing for the sake of children, the Okryu Children’s Hospital was built in a modern style. This year, all the preschoolers across the country have been provided with fine school things.

At the Third Plenary Meeting of the Eighth Central Committee of the Workers’ Party of Korea held in June this year, General Secretary Kim Jong Un noted that it must be the way of advance and development of the Korean revolution to exert more sincerity to children even though the condition becomes worse and to take dynamic steps forward towards the future of communism with the might of that love, adding that if the children who are born and grow up on this land eat well and are raised healthily in good environment from their childhood, so much vibrant vitality and vim will overflow in the society after 20 or 30 years and the national power of the DPRK will get greater. He called for establishing it as a Party’s policy to supply all the children across the country with nourishing food including dairy products at the state expense and set forth detailed tasks and ways for realizing it.

Indeed, Kim Jong Un who ushers in a new history of noble love for rising generations is the father of all the children in the country.
