September seething with shocking events and joy passed.

On the occasion of national day of September 9, the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un made an important speech Let Us Make Redoubled Efforts for the Prosperity of Our Great State.

His important speech is a powerful action programme that enables the DPRK to further promote balanced, substantial and simultaneous changes and rejuvenation in all directions of socialist construction by firmly holding fast to the superiority peculiar to the state and making strenuous efforts to find out all possibilities for development and thus serves as a banner guaranteeing its vigorous advance.

The situation never developed smoothly even in September due to the imperialists’ vicious moves.

The DPRK’s access to powerful military muscle under all manner of threats from hostile forces and the security environment facing it is the right to existence that should not be overlooked even for a moment and conceded even a bit for the prosperity of the country.

With the firm will to turn the DPRK into the most powerful country in the world and a land of all blessings, free from war generation after generation, Kim Jong Un, general secretary of the Workers’ Party of Korea, has made continuous journeys of energetic leadership for the rapid improvement of the state defence capabilities.

He inspected O Jin U Artillery Academy, made a field survey of the construction of a modern naval base, visited a defence industrial enterprise, inspected the training base of the special operation forces of the Korean People’s Army to guide the drill of combatants, oversaw the test-fire for verifying the performance of a new-type 600mm multiple rocket launcher and inspected the Nuclear Weapons Institute and the production base of weapons-grade nuclear materials.

Thanks to his devoted efforts, the country’s might grew stronger and an irreversible guarantee for the prosperity of the country was provided.

Great successes were also achieved in the economic field.

The happy news of moving into modern rural dwelling houses by agricultural workers was reported in many rural areas one after another and the construction project of regional-industry factories across the country for this year exceeded the 90 percent level of the overall construction work as part of primary tasks for implementing the Regional Industry 20×10 Policy. The construction of dwelling houses in the capital city and other major projects of the state were pushed forward without any moment’s stagnation.

Workers in the metallurgical industry sector including the Kim Chaek Iron and Steel Complex and the Chollima Steel Complex produced good results in production in September after August and rice harvesting was pushed forward to gather a rich harvest of crops in every socialist field.

The DPRK footballers won the trophy in the 2024 FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup, adding to the jubilation of the people in September.

The General Secretary met the women footballers and coaches who demonstrated the dignity and spirit of the DPRK with gold medals at the office building of the headquarters of the Party Central Committee and had a photo taken with them.

All the people are now burning with patriotic enthusiasm to realize the ideal of a prosperous and powerful country.
