Such noble intention of the WPK making devoted service for the people is being translated into a brilliant reality, thanks to the intense loyalty and efforts of millions of the Party members who have cherished the intention as the basic duty of their life and struggle. The WPK members have turned out in the responsible struggle for turning the areas afflicted by terrible natural disasters into the people's ideal lands, where they enjoy all blessings under socialism, by putting into perfect practice the gigantic blueprint unveiled by the great Party Central Committee to turn adversity into favorable situation. With his steadfast idea that the lives and properties of his dear people and the wealth of the country should no longer be exposed to natural disasters and it is the most urgent task for the Party and the state to provide the disaster-stricken people with stable and happy homes as soon as possible, the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un inspected the extremely dangerous flood-hit areas. His such ennobling devoted service awakens the Party members, the vanguard and core force of the revolution, to what viewpoint and strenuous efforts they should have and make in order to preserve and fulfill the revolutionary nature and sacred mission of the Party. Since the important news on the 22nd emergency enlarged meeting of the Political Bureau of the Eighth WPK Central Committee was reported, all the Party organizations at different levels have been filled with their members' volunteering enthusiasm. In Pyongyang and all provinces, regiments of Party members to be dispatched to the disaster-afflicted areas are being rapidly organized amid the high militant enthusiasm of all the Party members. The Party members throughout the country, touched by the untiring efforts of the great father who has unfolded a far-reaching plan for completely face-lifting the flood-hit areas beyond recognition, not merely for rehabilitation, wrote their names on the lists of the Party members' regiments. A meeting of the Pyongyang Municipal Regiment of Party Members to be dispatched for the rehabilitation projects in the flood-hit areas took place on August 5 amid the ever-growing extraordinary revolutionary consciousness of all the Party members. Commanding personnel and men of the regiment to be dispatched to the flood-hit areas lined up at the plaza of the Pyongyang Indoor Stadium.

He said in an excited tone that the respected General Secretary, who brings about the best fruition for the people through his devoted service and unconditional practice, has already mapped out a plan for bringing the rosy future by transforming the backwoods and other areas vulnerable to natural disasters throughout the country into wonderful lands. The unshakable will, scientific and bold idea and outstanding leadership of the respected General Secretary are the absolute strength that makes it possible to complete the grand construction projects decided by our Party and state with great successes, he said, adding that the exciting moment, when we will make a historic change after breaking with the notion that the fury of nature is unavoidable, awaits our Party members. It is the mission and revolutionary duty of the Party members to always find themselves earlier than others in the most difficult and seriously damaged areas to inject vitality into the advancing ranks by playing a bold vanguard role, he stressed. There is nothing impossible for us to do as the heroic example of the air force fighters, who performed miraculous feats by rescuing the people in danger to death-defyingly implement the order of the Party Central Committee, encourages us, and the spirit of the division of the Party members from the capital city, who went through thick and thin true to the call of the Party, exists, he said, calling for glorifying their noble title and honor as members of the WPK by setting a pioneer example through death-defying practice. Saying that the struggle of the WPK members will bring about another miracle in demonstrating the might of the people-first politics in the sacred history of the genuine Party for the people, the WPK, the reporter ardently called for transforming the northwestern areas of the country into paradises of happiness and high civilization and making a report of loyalty and victory to the respected General Secretary. Oath-taking speeches were made at the meeting. Speakers expressed their firm determination to courageously struggle in the van of the reconstruction campaign in the flood-stricken areas, saying that for the Party members who solemnly vowed to be boundlessly loyal to the idea and leadership of the Party, nothing is more sacred or honorable than to find their jobs in the flood-hit areas earlier than others in response to call of the respected General Secretary. They said that they would turn the flood-hit areas into strong fortresses invulnerable to any natural disaster and a socialist paradise where people's happiness is brought into full bloom by making sure that every campaign site is swept by the fighting spirit of the Party members of former generations, who dedicated themselves to glorifying every decade of the revolution with victories and glory, and confidence in and optimism about sure victory, and by putting their utmost sincerity into every structure. Calling for performing new miracles in the forefront of defending and devotedly serving the people with extraordinary efforts and through a bold onward campaign, they stressed that as there are millions of Party members gifted with the spirit of absolutely supporting the plan and determination of the Party Central Committee and putting them into perfect practice, the decision of the Political Bureau of the Party Central Committee will be surely brought to fruition resulting in great changes. A message of pledge to the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un was adopted. All the commanding officers and men of the regiment made a solemn vow to clearly show the true picture of the country that makes strenuous advance and leaps forward in the face of crises and difficulties, and give a report of victory to the Party Central Committee by full displaying the bravery and mettle of Party members of the capital city in the flood-hit areas where rehabilitation projects are underway. Pak Thae Song presented the flag of the regiment to its commanding personnel. Upon receiving the flag reflecting the Party Central Committee's noble outlook on the people, the audience broke into enthusiastic applause, and the plaza, where the flags of the DPRK and red flags were fluttering, was filled with the strong faith and will of the capital city Party members to powerfully demonstrate once again the great executive power of the great Party that brings earlier the rosy future by performing miracles to be etched in history.
