Seeing Patriotism of Young People

One day in April 2015 the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un visited the construction site of the Paektusan Hero Youth Power Station.

He dropped in at the exhibition house showing the successes made by young people who were building a power station in rugged ravine of the northern region. While looking round different places of the house, he stopped walking in front of an education board.

Written on it were the letters reading; "Turn the mountains of the country into green woods!"

Kim Jong Un received the report that young people mapped out a plan of forest creation, built a tree nursery, planted millions of trees and cultivated them with sincerity. He wore a bright smile on his face as if he was pleased to learn about the praiseworthy and laudable deeds of young people.

As a matter of fact, it was not at anyone's dictation that the members of the Paektusan Hero Youth Shock Brigade took even the forest creation upon themselves while building a power station.

The shock-brigaders regarded it as the job they should do and turned out to put it into practice true to the noble intention of Kim Jong Un who unfolded a grand plan to make the whole country forest and garden.

That day, Kim Jong Un said: I saw the master plan of afforestation by every regiment under the youth shock brigade and the boards of visual aids showing the creation of tree nursery and the cultivation of saplings in the northern highlands by the road before a sanatorium. Really admirable are our youth shock-brigaders who are thoroughly implementing the Party's policy on making the whole country forest and garden while building a power station. And it is planned to plant cosmos of new species at the construction site of the power station. I am most pleased to learn that the young people accepted the Party's policy sensitively.

Looking at saplings of various kinds planted and cultivated by the young people, he highly praised them for having mapped out a long-term plan for afforestation and building up the Paektu plateau despite the rigorous climate in the northern region.

After going round Unit 1 of the power station, he spoke highly of the good deeds of the youth shock-brigaders again, saying to officials; On my way to Unit 1 of the power station I found that they had built tree nurseries for good afforestation here and there while building the power station.

Whenever seeing patriotism of the young people, Kim Jong Un is very pleased and highly appreciates it. Under his loving care the Korean young people are glorifying the appellation of socialist patriotic youth proudly and honourably wherever and whatever they may do.
