The people in South Hamgyong Province have greeted the inauguration of regional-industry factories in Hamju County as a great auspicious event.

A spectacular sea of greenhouses was built in the Ryonpho area, where only gritty wind blew hard, and a fine model offshore farming base in the city of Sinpho. Now, the first entities of the regional-industry revolution of the Workers' Party of Korea have appeared, bringing excitement and joy to the provincial people.

An inauguration ceremony of the regional-industry factories in Hamju County for the Regional Development 20×10 Policy took place on January 18.

Ri Jong Nam, chief secretary of the South Hamgyong Provincial Committee of the WPK, addressed the ceremony.

The county of Hamju, too, sees the significant inauguration of regional-industry factories that is stirring up the whole country while demonstrating the dynamic phase of regional development in the new era, he said, noting that the present joyful moment is symbolic of the era of great turn and change to be specially recorded in the history of the country and clearly proves that the long-cherished desire of the people is being translated into reality.

He said that regional-industry factories have simultaneously sprung up in 20 cities and counties of the country in less than one year after the ground-breaking ceremony for the construction of regional-industry factories in the county of Songchon, and this historic gigantic transformation is associated with the love and devotion for the people of the great father who has worked heart and soul to improve the regional people's living standards, regarding the pains he takes for the people as his mission.

Ju Chang Sok, chief secretary of the Hamju County Committee of the WPK, made a speech.

He expressed the determination to consolidate the county's economic foundations by making the most of its natural and geographical conditions and economic potentials, as intended by the Party, and ensure the steady production at those regional-industry factories and thus build up the county into a thriving region.

Managers of the new factories cut the inauguration tape.

Many balloons rose up into the air and fireworks were set off to beautifully decorate the sky over Hamju County.

On the same day, there were a performance of artistes of the National Folk Art Troupe and a firework display in celebration of the inauguration ceremony.
