This year, more than 41 600 families have so far moved into new houses built by the country in 141 cities and counties.

This is the third year since the start of the implementation of the rural construction programme of the Workers’ Party of Korea.

The WPK put forward in 2022 a new programme for bringing about a revolutionary turn in the countryside, emphasizing the significance and importance of rural development in the comprehensive growth of socialism.

As its implementation makes dynamic progress, modern farmhouses awaited and welcomed by the agricultural workers are mushrooming in different parts of the country.

The number of rural villages whose construction has been completed throughout the country so far this year has grown in geometrical progression, compared with those built in the same period of the first and second years of the implementation of the rural revolution programme.

According to an official concerned, the number of farmhouses to be completed across the country will increase considerably by the end of this year.

The news about the happy events of moving into new houses has been reported every day by newspapers, radio and television, enlivening the whole country all the year round.

The styles of farmhouses also evolve with each passing day.

Agricultural workers express heartfelt gratitude and excitement after being provided by the country with modern flats on a par with urban ones or more singular and stylish.

In Munam-ri of Pujon County, a family received 12 licences for the use of houses, including parents and their children. And at the Ryonghung Farm in Thaechon County, a demobbed soldier who has just returned to his home village became the owner of a new house.

When the newlyweds were moved to tears of gratitude after receiving a new house at the Naejung Farm in Yomju County, a farmer at the Namyang Farm of Kilju County expressed his excitement at the ceremony for moving into new houses, saying that new houses were allocated even to his children.
