He saw persimmons which the officers and employees there have stored with good care since early in winter of 2011 with yearning for leader Kim Jong Il.

He listened to the poems created by employees there, missing Kim Jong Il very much.

Kim Jong Un looked round different places including public bath, dining room, rest room and refrigerating chamber to acquaint himself with the management activities and business method in the supply base.

He recalled that the base caught a lot of fishes and supplied them to servicepersons and people last year, too, true to his intention, praising it as an enterprise helpful to him.

After being told that the secret of the success lay in actively galvanizing the mental power of the employees, directing efforts to the supply service and putting fishing operations on a scientific basis, cutting down the time of boats' anchorage and consolidating the repair base, he urged other fishery bases to follow the working style and experience of the officials at that unit.

He toured the repair base of fishing boats there.

He was satisfied to learn about the technical specification of the horizontal and vertical shoal finding machine aboard a 200 h.p. fishing boat and the use of spent fuel there.

He was very pleased to hear that the base keeps boats operating not by the method of repairing boats when they go wrong but by the method of always keeping a spare engine for replacing any one out of order with it in a short span of time.

He spared time to meet with a couple of lathe operators working together in the same shop and appreciated their efforts.

The supply base is a model for the whole army, he noted, highly appreciating its success and extending thanks to it on behalf of the Party Central Committee.

Expressing his conviction that the officers, soldiers and employees of the base would serve the country and its people better, he gave a pair of binoculars, automatic rifle and machine gun to the sub-unit directly under the unit as gifts and had a photo session with them.

He was accompanied by Son Chol Ju, Jon Chang Bok, Pak Jong Chon and So Hung Chan.
