The fact that the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un, general secretary of the Workers’ Party of Korea, met flood victims who came to Pyongyang on August 15 touched the heartstrings of all people throughout the country again.

He visited the far-off and rough flood-stricken areas several times to see the inconveniences suffered by the flood victims and took crucial measures to bring the elderly, nursing mothers, disabled ex-soldiers, children and students to the capital city of Pyongyang so that they can lead a comfortable life until an excellent “rural town of culture” would be built on the spot. And he visited the lodging quarters of flood victims from the afflicted areas despite the sultry weather, warmly greeted them and made a welcoming address overflowing with parental affection. Nobody had ever expected it.

Seeing the elderly, women and children in the flood-hit areas waving their hands in buses like the representatives who attend national conferences or events, all the citizens of Pyongyang said that it was the impressive scene they have seen for the first time since they lived in Pyongyang, that they had never imagined such an unusual event that flood victims who lost their homes due to the unexpected natural disaster were received as special guests of honour and that the warm love and affection of the General Secretary beggars description.

He said in his speech that the flood victims were justifiably entitled to such grand welcome and sincere hospitality, and the WPK and the DPRK government are obliged to take full responsibility for the life and health of all the people within the territory of the country.

That is why the Korean people open their heart as they recollect the impressive scene unfolded along with flood victims, saying:

“The elderly, women and children will probably suffer the most when disasters strike. But in our country they are not miserable, but have come to enjoy the honour and happiness envied by all.”

Seeing happy children

Everyone tells about the honour and happiness bestowed on the children in the flood-stricken areas throughout the country.

“When the news about the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un’s visit to the dining hall of children was reported and when he approached the dining table of the children from our Uiju County, all the county population watched it with breathless attention,” said Ri Ul Song, an official of the Uiju County People’s Committee.

All the flood victims shed tears of gratitude as they looked up to the benevolent image of the General Secretary who accepted the requests of the children of ordinary farmers in Uiju County, patted them on their back and gave paternal affection to them while pleasantly receiving them who acted freely just as they do before their fathers.

The following day, Kim Jong Un visited the April 25 Hostel again to learn about the preparations for education for schoolchildren in the flood-hit areas and sent gifts to preschoolers and schoolchildren, The news caused a stir again in the whole country.

Teachers across the country say in unison that they could hardly repress tears welling up in their eyes as they think that the children in the flood-hit areas will study under excellent educational conditions in Pyongyang and that though they live in a small island village near the border of the country, they have become the happiest children well known to the country under the warm care of the fatherly Marshal.
