Any visitor to Rason can feel everywhere in the city that the DPRK government and people welcome the joint development of the zone by the DPRK and China and attach importance to it.

In fact, some of the development projects have been carried out to go into operation before the ground-breaking ceremony.

A reporter of the paper witnessed the already launched reconstruction project of the road between Quanhe and Rason and banners symbolic of construction units put up along the road.

The initial project for updating Rason Port and the road reconstruction project will be finished within this year. Then, the existing earth road will turn into a concrete road and the running distance will be shortened to less than half an hour.
