Pyongyang, July 22 (KCNA) -- True to the ever-victorious Workers' Party of Korea's line of building a military giant, the workers at the Nampho Shipyard are making steady progress with uninterrupted innovations and successive leaps forward aimed at the rapid transformation of our navy.

The workers, technicians and officials at the Nampho Shipyard, a reliable base for building large warships which is honorable with the tradition and might of self-reliance, pledged to build another new-type destroyer by October 10, 2026 by redoubling the same spirit and mettle as were displayed in successfully building the first multi-mission destroyer of a new generation so as to make a breakthrough in accomplishing the historic sacred cause of rapidly turning our country into a maritime power of the 21st century.

On July 21, employees of the Nampho Shipyard gathered to vow to build Choe Hyon-class Destroyer No. 3.

The venue for the meeting was full of the high revolutionary enthusiasm of the workers at the shipyard for upholding with the building of a powerful warship of our own type the unshakable determination and will of the Party Central Committee to firmly defend the inviolable maritime sovereignty and national interests of the DPRK with the inexhaustible might of the naval forces.

Present there were Jo Chun Ryong, secretary of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea, officials concerned, and workers and technicians at the Nampho Shipyard and in the shipbuilding industry.

The reporter referred to the pride of the workers of the Nampho Shipyard who successfully built the first multi-mission destroyer of the DPRK to honorably implement the decision of the plenary meeting of the Party Central Committee.

The new-type destroyer, which was built as a creation symbolic of the strength and spirit of the DPRK, is a priceless creation of the revolution in the warship-building industry that was brought about by the iron faith and will and outstanding strategy of the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un who visited the Nampho Shipyard ten times in a little more than a year and gave precious instructions on the building of the warship and inexhaustible wisdom and strength for working miracles, the reporter noted.

He said that through the process of building the destroyer in the face of countless challenges and hardships, the workers at the Nampho Shipyard hardened their faith that they can turn impossibility into a miracle and hasten even the remote future into reality when they do as instructed by Kim Jong Un .

He expressed the unshakable will of all the officials and employees of the shipyard to demonstrate once again to the whole world the honor of the revolutionary industry group by achieving miraculous success also in the building of another new-type warship.

He called upon officials to launch a strong ideological offensive and conduct the operation and command in a bold and effective way at the pulsating worksites and upon technicians and skilled workers to continuously work new miracles in the overall production processes.

The reporter ardently called for more firmly uniting with the mind of patriotism while always remembering the greatest trust of Kim Jong Un , and for successfully building the destroyer within the fixed period by displaying the fighting spirit of self-reliance based on science and technology, thus demonstrating once again the inexhaustible creativity and indomitable spirit of the honorable vanguard who is taking the lead in upholding the Party Central Committee's plan for building a powerful army.

The meeting declared the start of the building of Choe Hyon-class Destroyer No. 3 and announced a schedule for finishing the building of the destroyer by October 10, 2026.

Then oath-taking speeches were made.

The venue for the meeting resounded with a shout of slogans reflecting the soaring spirit and enthusiasm of all the participants to glorify the great era of Kim Jong Un as a new heyday of strengthening the Juche-oriented naval forces.

A letter of pledge to Kim Jong Un was adopted at the meeting amidst a storm of applause.

At the end of the meeting, the workers of the Nampho Shipyard started the building of Choe Hyon-class Destroyer No. 3. -0-
