After being briefed on the health complex before a large map showing its panoramic view, he went round it.

Making the rounds of the exterior and interior of the complex, he learned in detail about its construction.

Entering a pine tree sauna emitting strong smell of resin, he was pleased with the successful construction of its floor and walls.

Rest halls of bathhouses look spacious and nice, he said, adding visitors will like if TV sets are available there so that they may enjoy an emotional life, having good rest there.

Going up to the last fourth story, he stressed the need to use space effectively and efficiently.

The complex is an object to which leader Kim Jong Il paid special attention, he said, adding that if it is completed, this will amount to implementing another behest of Kim Jong Il.

Noting that the complex is not only fresh and peculiar in its architectural style and contents but also on a high level from designing to building, he underlined the need for soldier-builders to finish its project till the war victory day and provide it to the people.

The next leg of his field guidance was the People's Outdoor Ice Rink.

Noting that sporting and service facilities such as the ice rink could be built thanks to the heroic struggle of soldier-builders, he highly praised their merits.

There should be good places for providing skates and sharpening skate edges as it is a mass skating ground, he said.

He called for successfully completing the ice rink as a sports center for the country's ice sports development and physical training of working people, youth and students.

It is also a gift the WPK will present to the people, he noted, adding it should be finished till the war victory day along with the above-said health complex.

He was accompanied by Jang Song Thaek, member of the Political Bureau of the WPK Central Committee and vice-chairman of the National Defence Commission, and Ryang Chong Song and Ma Won Chun, vice department directors of the WPK Central Committee.
