Ordinary People Become Deputies

“When I was elected a deputy to the Phyongchon District People’s Assembly of Pyongyang Municipality in July 2019, I resolved to do more work as a servant of the people,” said Kim Thae Bong, team leader of the heat equipment maintenance workshop at the Pyongyang Thermal Power Station.

People’s assembly, people’s representative power organ in the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, is formed with deputies directly elected by the people. Deputies take part in the people-oriented state administration at the Supreme People’s Assembly, provincial (municipal), city (district) and county people’s assemblies.

The Phyongchon District People’s Assembly of Pyongyang Municipality is made up of more than 150 deputies, most of whom are those who have worked with devotion at their occupations for several decades, including a silk-reel worker, water supply and sewerage management worker, needle worker and teacher.

Among them are Ryang Si Hyang, a doctor at the Phyongchon District People’s Hospital, and Wang Kum Sil, a workteam leader at the Pyongyang Municipal Flowering Plants Production Company.

People call them “deputies of the people.” As such deputies participate in the discussion of political affairs of the state, all the policies of the state are worked out and implemented in the interests of the masses of the people and for their happiness.

Since the establishment of the people’s government, the DPRK has consistently made sure that deputies are elected from among the working people who work with devotion and dedicate their wisdom and passion to socialist construction and that they serve the people better.
