Pak Pong Ju, Choe Ryong Hae, Kim Ki Nam and other officials of the party and armed forces organs and the Cabinet met the participants.

They congratulated the people in the field of construction participating in the significant great workshop, a landmark in the history of Juche-based architecture, under the warm solicitude of Marshal Kim Jong Un.

They called upon the participants to successfully build more monumental edifices true to the noble intention of Kim Jong Un and greatly contribute to glorifying Kim Il Sung's nation and Kim Jong Il's Korea as a highly civilized and powerful country where people fully enjoy wealth and luxury under socialism.

They said all the participants should firmly arm themselves with the original and popular ideas and theories of architectural aesthetics of the Workers' Party of Korea and acquire profound knowledge of architecture as required by the new century during the workshop.
