Pyongyang, August 5 (KCNA) -- The standard pharmacies in the capital city of Pyongyang and other parts of the DPRK are associated with the warm loving care shown by the respected General Secretary Kim Jong Un for the protection of the people's life and the promotion of their health.

One day in May Juche 111 (2022), he guided a consultative meeting of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea, at which he took practical measures to eliminate the deviations revealed in the overall anti-epidemic work. Immediately after the meeting, he visited some pharmacies in Pyongyang at night.

He entered a pharmacy regardless of the risk to his health in order to know what medicines were supplied after the operation of the maximum emergency anti-epidemic system, what kind of medicines were badly needed by people, how much they are in price, etc.

While inspecting some pharmacies in Pyongyang, he realized they failed to be designed and furnished to fulfill their functions as a specialized dispensary. And he gave instructions to standardize dispensaries.

New criteria for pharmacies of various sizes were specified on the principle of ensuring the health of the people, the convenience in their lives and the correctness, convenience and safety in the sale of medical supplies. Plenary meetings of the WPK Central Committee stressed the importance of building standard pharmacies in cities and counties.

The General Secretary made sure that a standard and model pharmacy for the country was built first in Moranbong District of Pyongyang, and personally chose the site for it and examined its interior and exterior designs.

Thanks to his warm love for the people, standard pharmacies were built and began their operation in Hwasong District of Pyongyang, Kanggye City of Jagang Province and Rason Municipality and such pharmacies have appeared one after another in many areas of the country. -0-
