A new history of changes is being written in rural villages across the DPRK.

News is being announced almost every day that smart dwelling houses of various styles have been built in rural villages across the country including flat, mountainous and coastal areas, and ordinary agricultural workers have become their owners.

Socialist rural communities are undergoing a radical change with modern, cultured and diversified houses built to suit the natural and geographical conditions and residents’ convenience, and beautiful landscapes peculiar to rural villages laid out with good species of trees and flowering shrubs.

It is the intention and rural construction policy of the Workers’ Party of Korea to make all rural villages across the country on a par with those of the city of Samjiyon and turn them into well-off and civilized ideal socialist villages.
