Most Important Revolutionary Task

The following happened one day in August several years ago.

After looking round the construction site of the light-industry factories in Kusong City, respected Comrade Kim Jong Un told officials that modern hospitals, too, should be built in cities and counties.

The officials were excited at the instruction of Comrade Kim Jong Un on building hospitals in parallel with light-industry factories.

He said: It is a really difficult decision to make to newly build hospitals in all the cities and counties across the country in the present situation. But it is a decision to be made without fail.

Taking responsibility for the people’s health is one of the most important revolutionary tasks facing our Party, and it is the attitude befitting a revolutionary to decide on and unconditionally carry out the most difficult task at the most difficult time, he continued.

Thanks to his sincerity for the regional people, a consultative meeting on regional development held soon afterward stressed the need to add the construction of modern public health facilities to the Regional Development 20×10 Policy.
