New Stamps Issued in DPRK
Pyongyang, March 11 (KCNA) -- The State Stamp Bureau of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea issued stamps (two sheetlets) introducing Samjiyon City in Ryanggang Province.

Samjiyon City is the historic place where Chairman Kim Jong Il's birthplace in the Paektusan Secret Camp is situated.

Last year, the city was turned into a socialist fairyland and a model local town under the guidance of the Workers' Party of Korea and thanks to the devoted efforts of the Korean people.

The sheetlets contain stamps showing a technical senior middle school, people's hospital, blueberry drink factory, gymnasium, houses and a hotel with the radically changed city as background.
