Under his energetic guidance, the county underwent radical changes.

A number of local industrial establishments in the county, including foodstuff factory, textile mill and furniture factory, were renovated on a modern basis, and there sprang up foodstuff-processing factory, earthenware jar factory, garment factory and other new factories.

The county seat took on a new look, with a cultural house splendidly renovated and hundreds of modern dwelling houses and more public service facilities built in a peculiar style. At night it is brilliantly illuminated to delight inhabitants.

That is why the inhabitants in Changsong County still miss Kim Jong Il and loudly sing of their happy life and devoted service made by the great Generalissimos to turn the county in a well-off locality.

They are now hardening their will to build the county into a socialist paradise, as intended by Kim Jong Il.
