The National Conference of Subworkteam Leaders in the Agricultural Sector, the first of its kind in history, was held in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea in February 2014.

Always concerned about the agricultural development of the country, the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un took measures to hold the National Conference of Subworkteam Leaders in the Agricultural Sector and sent a historic letter to its participants during the conference. And he had a photo session with the subworkteam leaders on February 9 after the successful conference.

That evening Kim Jong Un called a senior official of the then Air Koryo Administration and gave him a task to organize a flight for sending delegates of Ryanggang Province to the conference the next day, saying:

The participants in the conference are returning home from today. It snowed a lot in the east coastal area. If the delegates from Ryanggang Province travel by train, it will take several days. I am worried at the thought that they will have a hard time for days on the way home. So I am going to send them by air.

And he informed the official of the number of the delegates and selected the type of plane to carry them.

Official Kim Hyok Chol at the Agricultural Commission said the delegates to the National Conference of Subworkteam Leaders in the Agricultural Sector still remember what happened at that time, and continued:

"The delegates of Ryanggang Province were to return home by air. The officials who saw them off and the people who received them were all greatly impressed.

Later, I heard that the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un said nothing should be spared for the farmers in charge of the grain production of the country and they deserve to travel by car decorated with flowers, not by plane. And he gave instructions on several occasions concerning the departure of the plane for the farmers.

Towards midnight, he stressed the need to organize and command the flight in a responsible manner so that the delegates could travel safely. Early the next morning, he called an official and told him to check the weather conditions again before the departure of the plane.

Indeed, all the agricultural workers were moved to tears by the sincerity Kim Jong Un showed to the ordinary farmer-delegates from the northern part of the country."
