The people in Kyongsong County, North Hamgyong Province, also greeted an auspicious event as the inauguration ceremonies of modern regional-industry factories, which will substantially contribute to the improvement of regional people's material and cultural living, take place one after another all across the country.

The county in the northern tip of the DPRK is full of joy of the inhabitants, who will enjoy a new socialist civilization to the full while leading a beautiful life in the new era of rejuvenation when the capital and the provinces develop and change all together.

An inauguration ceremony of the regional-industry factories in the county took place on January 12.

Present there were officials and working people in North Hamgyong Province and Kyongsong County, soldier-builders and employees of the factories.

Kim Yong Hwan, chief secretary of the North Hamgyong Provincial Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea, addressed the ceremony.

He stressed that this significant inauguration ceremony showing up the wonderfully changed looks of the county along with the beginning of a hope-filled new year, is strikingly demonstrating the plan of the great WPK Central Committee for making the ideal appearance of regions a true picture of Korean-style socialism and the bright prospects of the new regional development policy.

Thanks to the undying trace left by the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un in the county, the Jungphyong Greenhouse Farm, a large-scale vegetable producer, sprang up before anything else, the Yombunjin Coastal Park is being built splendidly on a scenic beach and in pine forests, and modern regional-industry factories have appeared as the first entity of regional rejuvenation to give joy of a fresh life and new civilization to the people, he said.

Pak Kun Sok, chairman of the Kyongsong County People's Committee, made a speech.

Employees of the factories cut off the inauguration tape.

Kyongsong County, which has been famous for ceramics and hot springs from olden times, is changing beyond recognition every year under the loving care of the respected Marshal Kim Jong Un, said Kim Ki Dok, a worker at the Kyongsong Electrical Appliances Factory, adding that he would devote all his loyalty and patriotic zeal to the benevolent motherly Party translating into reality the long-cherished desire of the regional people.

A colourful performance was given to add to the joy of the people in the county on the inauguration day.
