Pyongyang, October 19 (KCNA) -- The Korean Association for Supporting the Children has conducted diverse activities to improve the health and nutritive conditions of children.

They include the technological exchange and cooperation in treating infants with congenital heart disease caused by blood circulation disorder with social organizations of other countries.
