People-loving Leader

 

Kim Jong Un has reflected the people-friendly and people-loving character in the politics of the ruling Workers’ Party of Korea.

“Everything for the people and everything by relying on them!”—this is a slogan he put forward, and the political philosophy of the ruling party and the state is the people-first principle.

His people-loving politics is not something like seeking fame or achieving successes habitually pursued by the Western politicians in general.

Last year when typhoons and flooding hit different areas of the country, Kim Jong Un personally drove his car to the spots. In this country, where a well-regulated working system has been established, the leader could learn the actual situations and take appropriate measures without giving personal field guidance. But he refused to do so.

He did not hesitate to drive his car on the roads that became slippery and muddy by heavy rainfalls or to dangerous areas where the swell of typhoons was yet to be removed. He met and consoled the victims and raised fallen rice plants with his hands. The appearance of the leader, who goes closer to the people suffering from trials, moved the world.

This is how the country, though it was in a difficult situation owing to the persistent harsh sanctions imposed by the hostile forces and to the world health crisis, could build

 tens of thousands of new houses more splendid than their original ones in a matter of a few months, thus stabilizing the victims’ living as soon as possible.

Over the last decade streets and bases for cultural and leisure activities have been built in various parts of the country, dramatically changing its appearance. All these are born by his politics of loving the people.

This year, too, the situation surrounding the country is still arduous, but an unprecedented, grand construction projects are under way. Kim Jong Un is determined to have many houses built in different parts of the country in the period of new five-year plan for national economic development, particularly 10 000 flats in the capital city every year in this period, so as to improve the people’s living standards more satisfactorily.

It is quite natural that the single-hearted unity, in which the leader and the people share the same ideology and destiny, is being cemented rock-solid across the country, and so is the fact that the country is recognized as a political power unperturbed by any storms.
