The first place in the contest was taken by the Ministry of Land and Environment Protection.

In this regard, Choe Yong Nam, head of a department of the ministry, told KCNA:

Tennis is good for relieving fatigue and enhancing the working ability.

The ministry has paid big efforts to the tennis event under the Workers' Party of Korea's policy of making tennis a part of everyday life.

We will as ever take the lead in stirring up sports enthusiasm across the country.
