It happened when Chairman Kim Jong Il directed the construction project for the Ice Rink in Pyongyang.
At that time, designers had planned to run the skating facility for seven months a year, because year-round operation of it required costly cooling equipment.
On hearing the fact, the Chairman said that there would be no need to build the Ice Rink if it would open for only some months a year and that construction and operational expenses are a matter of concern for capitalists, but money is out of question in our construction for the sake of the people.
It can be a genuinely people’s facility only when it is run all the year round, always filled with fresh air, he added.
