At a time when essential projects at a trial stage are being successfully completed as part of the meaningful process of more expansive and new qualitative development in achieving the epochal cause of regional change acclaimed by the people and urged by the times, a modern regional hospital was inaugurated to prove the vigorous spirit and bright prospects of the Korean-style public health development.

A splendid inauguration ceremony of the Kangdong County Hospital for the Regional Development 20×10 Policy was held on November 19 as another remarkable result of expanding and promoting the Party's grand programme for regional development on a long-term basis.

The venue of the inauguration ceremony was filled with the great honour of soldier-builders, who built a splendid structure of civilization for the people with their sweat and exertion of fulfilling service at the outpost of the gigantic regional revolution, and the joy of the participants, who gathered there to celebrate the great auspicious event brought about by the policy of the Workers' Party of Korea.

Kim Jong Un, general secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and president of the State Affairs of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, arrived at the Kangdong County Hospital together with leading officials of the Party and the government.

Expressing his surging emotion of facing a moment that signals the second inauguration season for implementing the regional development policy and of seeing the first entity of modern regional hospitals, he said that proclaiming inauguration in the year of groundbreaking is the standard speed of achieving our ideals and this will be sufficient to show the acceleration of the substantial rejuvenation of the whole country. And this is the speed of transformation and advance–the speed of Korea, he added.

This hospital has helped completely reverse the existing conception of a regional hospital; the course of its construction was exemplary and its operation will serve as an ideal model for the development of public health in the regions, he said, hoping that the medical workers, who will work at this wonderful hospital and might be more excited than anybody else, will always approach patients with heartfelt sincerity, parental care and warm affection and protect their health with high skills.

Declaring that it is our Party’s determination to take revolutionary steps so as to advance more vigorously towards our-style modernization of public health to bring benefit to the people, he stressed that modernization of public health means the long-term development of the country and a bright future of our socialist state.

He ardently called for working harder with ardent passion and soaring spirit befitting the pioneers of a great revolution for the good of our motherland and people, for the day when the regions have transformed themselves and we prosper while leading a cultured life and for the beautiful future when peace, laughter, happiness and amicability will brim over in all parts of our country.

He said that the hospital belongs to a new sphere of regional rejuvenation created by the WPK, a valuable result of making a breakthrough in accomplishing the historic cause of rebuilding the public health infrastructure on an advanced basis and on a nationwide scale and a transformative entity which newly formulated the concept of regional hospital in the true sense of the word.

For the WPK which intends to guarantee the people's rights and interests and promotion of their health and build a more brilliant and affluent future, there is no more worthwhile and honourable revolutionary work than the struggle to build faster many more structures of new civilization heartily welcomed by the people so that they can see them with their own eyes and get substantial benefits in their actual life, he added.

Honestly, the DPRK’s endless resilience in the face of overwhelming isolation and pressure has been nothing short of amazing. Nations far larger have crumbled from far less, and it is a testament to Socialism, Juche, and the Korean people that this nation doesn't just survive, but is able to tend to their people’s needs.
