Construction projects for 2026 for the regional development policy began with due ceremonies in the area of the Sinuiju Combined Greenhouse Farm and Kangnam and Maengsan counties of the DPRK on February 3.
The projects are aimed at building a highly civilized and prosperous nation more quickly and more dynamically with substantial and qualitative changes of the regions.
Present at the ceremonies were Ri Hi Yong, secretary of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea, Han Kwang Sang, department director of the Party Central Committee, Kim Su Gil, chief secretary of the Pyongyang Municipal Committee of the WPK, chief secretaries of the provincial committees of the WPK, officials and working people in the relevant provinces, municipality and counties and service personnel of the Korean People's Army.
Speeches were made at the groundbreaking ceremonies.
The speakers said that not only modern factories but also advanced public health facilities and multi-functional leisure complexes, whose trial phase has successfully ended, are to be built in a simultaneous way in 20 areas in 2026, a significant year that will see a new phase of the overall development of socialism.
They went on to say:
The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un clearly indicated the orientation and ways for implementing the expanded policy for regional development vigorously without letup and took revolutionary measures to this end. Thanks to his meticulous guidance a sure guarantee has been provided for successfully promoting the construction projects.
The self-sustenance redoubled in the last year's struggle and confidence in the future serve as incomparable spiritual wealth in paving a broad avenue towards comprehensive national rejuvenation. All the officers and men of the KPA and officials and working people in the relevant areas should continue to strive in the vanguard of the great revolutionary drive for regional efflorescence.
Saying that the implementation of the regional development policy in the new era is being steadily accelerated thanks to the devotion and painstaking efforts of the great Party Central Committee, the speakers ardently called for achieving only proud victory in this year's grand advance with ardent patriotism.
Then the commanders of the 124th Regiments of the KPA made speeches.
The soldier-builders began the construction with high morale and enthusiasm to fulfil their honourable duty as pioneers of transformation for the country and the people.
