Recently, an enlarged meeting of
the Fifth Plenary Meeting of the Eighth Central Committee of the Workers’ Party
of Korea was held in Pyongyang, the capital city of the Democratic People’s
Republic of Korea, in the presence of General Secretary Kim Jong Un.
The meeting discussed an
important agenda item of powerfully pushing forward with building up the
state’s anti-epidemic capabilities.
The General Secretary clarified
the strategic and tactical plans for finally defusing the malignant epidemic crisis,
restoring stability and vigorously promoting the building-up of the state’s
anti-epidemic capabilities, its capacity to cope with crisis.
Now the state’s anti-epidemic
work has entered the new stage of both blockade and eradication of the epidemic
from the blockade-focused prevention after the unexpected serious crisis caused
by the spread of the virulent virus.
In a report to the enlarged
meeting the General Secretary said that, under the current situation in the
state’s anti-epidemic work, the urgent task facing the Party and state is to
immediately remedy the shortcomings and deviations revealed in the work and to
take decisive steps for building up the country’s anti-epidemic capabilities.
He said that only when the
anti-epidemic policy of the Party and state is enforced in a strict, scientific
and advanced way, can it prove successful, stressing the need to steadily
improve the anti-epidemic system and methods.
Our anti-epidemic work is based
on the people’s voluntary unity in action, not on any institutional mechanism
or material and technical means, he said, adding that great victory in this
work can be won only through an all-people resistance, by their joint efforts.
On May 12 the state’s epidemic
prevention system was switched to the top-level emergency anti-epidemic system;
since then, the Korean people have turned out as one in implementing the ruling
WPK’s and the government’s measures for rigorous blockade and anti-epidemic
work.
In the report Kim Jong Un
clarified in detail the tasks for overcoming the immediate epidemic crisis: The
Party organizations at all levels should conduct a vigorous ideological work
for arousing all the people to the anti-epidemic war and guide the emergency
anti-epidemic work in a responsible manner; all the Party cells should find on
their own initiative the work to be done in the current anti-epidemic situation
and ensure that Party members fulfill their duties and responsibilities with
the same thought and action; officials should always lead Party members and all
other broad sections of the people in the van of the anti-epidemic front, learn
in detail about and grasp the enforcement of the emergency anti-epidemic system
on the spot and take timely steps.
Underlining the need to
vigorously promote the building-up of the state’s anti-epidemic capabilities,
he said that the capabilities to be built by us is an ensemble of a
consolidated work system and order, technical forces, material foundations and
potentials capable of containing, controlling and defusing any possible health
crisis, which the country might face, on its own initiative and in a stable
way.
He reviewed and analyzed the
invaluable experience gained and lessons drawn in the course of ensuring the
preventive security of the country for over two years by enforcing our own
style of epidemic prevention policy and of running the top-level emergency
anti-epidemic system. He noted that all the emergency anti-epidemic policies
and guidelines and the measures and policies pursued so far by the Party and
the government serves as a great asset for building up the state’s
anti-epidemic capabilities.
He set forth the immediate goal,
long-term goal and detailed ways for firmly consolidating the material and
technical foundations for bolstering up the state’s anti-epidemic capabilities.
Noting that the current
anti-epidemic war is an occasion for gaining priceless experience and
stratagems for creditably defending the security of the country and the people
in any future health crisis, he called for bringing about an unprecedented
miracle in restoring the stability in the anti-epidemic work by further
intensifying the Party work, economic organization and public healthcare to
give the fullest play to the organizing ability of our united society and the
advantages of the socialist public health system.
He ardently called for firmly
protecting the health and safety of the dear people by organizing and launching
the emergency anti-epidemic work scrupulously, flexibly and substantially with
confidence and courage and powerfully accelerating the building-up of the
country’s capabilities for coping with any epidemic disease and crisis.
