Pyongyang, December 22 (KCNA) -- The blessed areas of Jagang and Ryanggang provinces in the DPRK, which have turned into fine ones thanks to the wise leadership of the Workers' Party of Korea, are full of great joy of people. Socialist modern villages sprang up like mushrooms after rain in a little over three months. This eye-opening change is the precious fruit of the great love of the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un for the people and his tireless efforts. Bearing in mind the devoted efforts of Kim Jong Un, the builders, including the members of the regiments of Party members from Pyongyang Municipality and all the provinces, have built thousands of modern rural houses in the flood-hit areas near the northern border of the country. Ceremonies for moving into new houses took place at those villages of Jagang and Ryanggang provinces respectively. Present at the ceremonies were Kim Jae Ryong and Jon Hyon Chol, members of the Political Bureau and secretaries of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea, Sin Chang Gil, chairman of the Jagang Provincial People's Committee, officials of Party and power organs in those areas, working people and builders. Congratulatory speeches were made at the ceremonies. The speakers congratulated the flood victims on moving into their new houses in the new villages, which have undergone a transformation beyond recognition, under the loving care of the motherly Party dedicating itself to the sake of the people. They also extended thanks to the builders, officials of those areas, Party members and working people who completed the housing construction in the flood-hit areas at the highest level through a do-or-die struggle to bring joy to the people. They stressed that the fine new houses to be owned by the flood victims would be unthinkable apart from the wise guidance of Kim Jong Un who has noble outlook on the people. Representing the unanimous wishes of all the participants, the speakers extended the warmest thanks to Kim Jong Un who absolutely defends the destiny and future of the people across the country and takes warm care of them. Conveyed at the ceremonies were the household goods sent by Kim Jong Un to the flood victims and the licenses for the use of houses. The venues for the ceremonies turned into a sea of tears of gratitude of the people deeply moved by the great benevolence of Kim Jong Un who provided them with excellent houses and even household goods free of charge. The people who took the floor said in an excited tone that the flood victims, once left homeless, enjoy the fortune of owning new modern houses on the same day under the loving care of Kim Jong Un. They expressed their determination to turn their villages into a socialist paradise, where it is good to work and live, and to become true patriots who work devotedly for the Party and the prosperity of the country, conveying the love and benevolence of the motherly Party to posterity. Moving into new houses began at the same time in the new villages of Jagang and Ryanggang provinces. The "rural cultural cities", which are associated with the loving care of the motherly Party, were awash with the happy inhabitants who danced and sang songs with the great pleasure of living under the care of the greatest fatherly leader, dear father in the world, and those congratulating them and sharing joy with them. Their voices of determination to live up to the great benevolence and love of the Party were heard in every nook and corner of the villages and houses which have undergone a dramatic change.
