He was accompanied by Vice-Marshal of the Korean People's Army Pak Jong Chon who is chief of the KPA General Staff, Army General Kim Su Gil who is director of the General Political Bureau of the KPA, and Jo Yong Won, Kim Yo Jong, Hyon Song Wol and Ma Won Chun who are officials of the Central Committee of the WPK.

He was greeted by officials of the Kwangchon Chicken Farm construction headquarters on the spot.

The Kwangchon Chicken Farm now under construction in Kwangchon-ri, Hwangju County, North Hwanghae Province according to the far-reaching plan of our Party is a modern chicken farm which will produce thousands of tons of delicious and quality meat and tens of millions of tasty and quality eggs every year.

The respected Supreme Leader who is making painstaking efforts and devotion, always shouldering full loads for the prosperity of the country and the happiness of the people, personally initiated the construction of the modern chicken farm which would make a great contribution to significantly developing the poultry of the country.

Saying that chicken farms in our country which are said to have been modernized are now backward as they are more than 20 years old, he made a decision for the Party to take direct charge of the construction of an icon farm which would be a model in modernizing all the chicken farms across the country, and then dispatched powerful force of builders affiliated to the Party and soldier builders.

The builders turned out in hearty response to the people-first policy of our Party which prioritizes people and makes devoted service for them, thus making the achievements of almost finishing the construction work.

Touring the construction site, the Supreme Leader learned in detail about the progress made in the construction.

He expressed satisfaction over the fact that the huge project was successfully pushed forward and lots of work done in a short period, highly appreciating the labor achievements of the builders.

The Kwangchon Chicken Farm being built to be a model in the poultry field should be standard in terms of its structure, to say nothing of equipment, he said, calling for building it at the maximum level to meet the scientific and technological needs.

Saying that the Party is going to send a full set of the most advanced poultry equipment with the highest level of modernity, automation and intensification to the Kwangchon Chicken Farm, he repeatedly stressed the need to thoroughly ensure the quality of the construction to suit to the modern equipment. He instructed the officials to dynamically conduct political and economic organization to finish the project as scheduled.

The construction of the chicken farm is what the Party had planned and has put lots of efforts to from a long time ago, and as it is a farm which the Party expects to make significant contributions to the dietary life of our people, the Party has paid deep attention to it, he said. He stressed that all the builders should be encouraged to fully display their loyalty and talents in the construction true to the noble intention of our party.

He also urged the need to make a three-dimensional push to turn the farms providing chicken feed to the Kwangchon Chicken Farm into icon units of the rural culture, and also to help the farming of those farms so as to make them advanced ones.

He pointed out that operational units should staff the modern chicken farm with capable officials and scientists and technicians in the stock-breeding field and that the training of technicians should be carried out from now in a far-sighted way for them to satisfactorily operate the advanced equipment.

He voiced his expectation and conviction that the builders would turn out in the worthwhile construction for turning into a reality the ideal of our Party to supply our children and people with much more delicious and nutritious meat and eggs and build the Kwangchon Chicken Farm as a wonderful farm.

All the builders were greatly heartened by the Supreme Leader who put deep profound trust in them by visiting the construction site despite the mid-summer heat and by giving valuable teachings for pushing forward the project and by taking all necessary measures. They made a firm pledge to certainly make a report of completion of the project within the time set.
