It is none other than the DPRK where all members of the society are given all rights including rights to work and rest and free education and healthcare.

The state regards housing construction as an important work for providing the people with conditions for cultural and stable life and pays deep attention to it.

Ordinary teachers, researchers and working people are provided with flats free in the modern apartment houses for educators of Kim Il Sung University, those in Changjon Street, Unha Scientists Street, etc. built in Pyongyang in recent years.

The state looks after the living of the old people without supporters, children and disabled persons in a responsible manner.
