Not Overlooking Even a Small Thing

The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un in his report on the review of the work of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea (WPK) made at the historic 8th Congress of the WPK said that when shaping and enforcing lines and policies, our Party has consistently maintained the principle of respecting the urgent needs of the people in their living and their will and has held people's feedback and assessment as a standard in all production and construction with priority given to their conveniences.

The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un said.

"General Kim Jong Il's patriotic mind was always filled with the word people. If it is the wish of the people, I will pluck a star from the heavens or grow flowers even on a rock-this was the noble expression of his affection for the people, and his will."

On December 3, Juche 95 (2006) the great General visited Migok Co-op Farm in Sariwon City to share joy with farmers moving to new modern houses wonderfully built as socialist fairyland.

After looking round a monument to field guidance of the great leader Comrade Kim Il Sung and a revolutionary museum, he visited a terraced house and then another house where he entered a living room and a kitchen to learn about household.

He came outside with satisfaction when his eyes stopped at a name plate on the door. He said that name plate should also include address. If not, people will have to go to security agencies to find the exact person they want to meet, he said, adding this is an expression of bureaucracy devoid of the serve-the-people spirit.

Some years ago, during his foreign tour, the great General gave teachings to hang name plates on doors of all the houses in the country. But officials thought names would just do, not giving a deep thought to what it could mean. They never thought that the issue can be an expression of serve-the-people spirit.

Looking around officials, deeply drawn in the feelings of self-reflection, he said that name plates should bear correct addresses just as the case with letters and milestones. Name plates should be hung to be easily noticeable by passers-by, he pointed out.

Name plates are just a trifle in grand tile-roofed houses.

But it was never a small thing to the General whose noble love for the people demanded that even a star must be collected and flower be brought to bloom on a rock if it is the wish of the people.
