Groundbreaking ceremonies of the construction projects for the regional development policy for the new year were held in Sinphyong and Sonchon counties on February 7, amid the growing patriotic will and fighting spirit of all the people to accelerate the overall prosperity and development of Korean-style socialism according to the blueprint to be unveiled by the Ninth Congress of the Workers' Party of Korea.
Present at the ceremonies were Choe Ryong Hae, member of the Presidium of the Political Bureau of the WPK Central Committee and chairman of the Standing Committee of the Supreme People's Assembly of the DPRK, Ju Chang Il, department director of the Central Committee of the WPK, chief secretaries of the provincial committees of the WPK, officials in the relevant provinces and counties, working people and service personnel.
At the ceremonies speakers said that a new era of national rejuvenation, an era of remarkable changes, is being ushered in thanks to the leadership of the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un who has boldly pioneered and invariably accomplished the unprecedented revolution for realizing the centuries-old desire of the regional people.
They said that the ceremonies add inexhaustible vitality to the ranks of the general advance which will glorify the significant year 2026, which was greeted with ardent patriotism and boundless pride, as a year of eventful successes and eye-opening changes to be specially recorded in the history of the country and will more vigorously usher in a period of comprehensive national prosperity with clear and sure development of the regions.
They stressed that under the wise guidance of the great Party Central Committee, which put forward the absolute loyalty to the people as the lifeblood of its policy, the wealth of prosperity will surely spring up in the relevant regions at the end of the year and the bright future, in which the people across the country live in happiness all together, will be brought earlier.
They ardently called on all the soldier-builders, officials and working people to glorify this year when the glorious Party Congress is to be held as a year of fresh advance and leap forward by faithfully upholding the ideas and leadership of Kim Jong Un with a single mind.
Then the commanders of the 124th regiments of the Korean People's Army made pledge-taking speeches.
The projects began amid the stormy cheers and shouts for devoted implementation raised by the participants with surging enthusiasm.
