KIM JONG UN INSPECTS KPA UNIT 405

    Pyongyang, May 20 (KCNA) -- Supreme Commander of the Korean People's Army Marshal Kim Jong Un, first secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and first chairman of the National Defence Commission of the DPRK, inspected KPA Unit 405. He had a photo session with service personnel of the unit after giving a pair of binoculars and automatic rifle to the company directly under the unit, expressing belief that its service personnel would defend the dear socialist homeland as firm as an iron wall.

          He looked round the room devoted to the history of the unit. He said leader Kim Jong Il had particular expectation and concern towards the unit. He told the officers and men to unite in one mind and develop the unit into stalwart steel-strong combat ranks, bearing deep in mind Kim Jong Il's noble will enshrined in the proud colors of the unit whenever they face difficulties and bottlenecks.
Watching the photo of Ju Tong Gil, former commander of the unit, who died in the line of duty while making devoted efforts to round off the combat preparations of the unit, he recollected Ju whom Kim Jong Il missed. Kim Jong Un went round the library where he saw different kinds of books and materials for ideological and cultural education sent by the WPK.

    He dropped in at an operation study room where he received a report on the unit's performance of duty and its trainings. He said the unit has a very important mission to fulfill, setting forth important tasks that would serve as guidelines for rounding off its combat preparations. He looked round the mess hall, non-staple foodstuff store and bean store. He then moved to a company directly under the unit. Going round bedroom, education room and wash-cum-bath room, he praised the company for having provided its soldiers with all conditions so that they may not feel any inconvenience in their living.

    As I visit the splendidly-built barracks of the unit, I remember the words of leader Kim Jong Il that he would certainly visit it, Kim Jong Un noted, adding: How happy we would be if we had come to the unit, accompanying the leader.
    He enjoyed an art performance given by the soldiers of the company at the end of his visit to it.

    They staged such colorful numbers as narration and chorus "Boundless Is Our Yearning", chorus "He Is Our Dear Supreme Commander", chorus and story-telling "Company Is Our Dear Home", poem and chorus "We Will Defend General Kim Jong Un at the Cost of Our Lives."

    The supreme commander warmly clapped his hands while watching the performance. He had a talk with the soldiers of the company and had a photo taken with them. That day he visited the family of Officer Kang Yong Sun and learned in detail about the construction of houses for officers of the unit. He was accompanied by Jang Jong Nam, Son Chol Ju, Jon Chang Bok, Rim Kwang Il and Ri Man Gon.

KIM JONG UN VISITS BREEDING STATION OF KPA

    Pyongyang, May 20 (KCNA) -- Supreme Commander of the Korean People's Army Marshal Kim Jong Un, first secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea (WPK) and first chairman of the National Defence Commission of the DPRK, gave field guidance to the Breeding Station No. 621 of the KPA now under construction. He warmly waved back to the enthusiastic cheers of the soldier-builders. He went round different places of the station to learn in detail about its construction.
He was greatly pleased to see a large area of grass land and a lot of buildings in vast plottage.

    He recalled that he initiated the construction of the breeding station with an aim to breed grass-eating animals including goat of good stock and provide them to all units of the KPA and issued an order to start the construction, praising the soldier-builders for having done a lot of work in a short span of time.
    It is important to successfully conduct scientific researches to massively breed such goats, he said. He learned about what progress was made in the construction of the goat institute, a breeding research centre.

    After acquainting himself with the construction of dwelling houses for employees of the station, he stressed the need to build good houses in different places so that villages of bliss may appear in the district of the breeding station.
    Going round the construction sites of various breeding pens, he asked about on what principle they would be built. He underlined the need to reasonably create grass land and distribute buildings.

    He saw goats of good stock being bred at the station. He was told that goat of new species sent by him to the station was faster in breeding and growth and quality of meat was better than the local strains. He called for pushing ahead with the work to widely propagate the goat of good stock.

          Recollecting the words of President Kim Il Sung and leader Kim Jong Il that meat should be obtained from grass, Kim Jong Un said that the KPA should take the lead in translating the behests of the great Generalissimos Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il into a brilliant reality. The Breeding Station No. 621 of the KPA is an important stockbreeding centre for providing a lot of grass-eating animals of good stock to service personnel, he said, indicating tasks and ways for completing the construction before the Party founding anniversary this year and massively breeding those animals.

He was accompanied by Jang Jong Nam, Son Chol Ju, Jon Chang Bok, Rim Kwang Il and Ri Man Gon, chief secretary of the North Phyongan Provincial Committee of the WPK. -0-
