Story of affection shown on journey of devotion
June 1, 2025Since the problem of pencil had been placed on the agenda at the first session of the power organ after the founding of the DPRK, state policies for children have been adopted and enforced invariably even in the face of manifold difficulties and trying ordeals.
Thanks to the adoption of the Law of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea on Childcare, all the Korean children grow up healthily as they have nutritious dairy products on a regular basis under the close concern of the state.
The respected fatherly Marshal
After placing the issue of improving and strengthening the Party’s childcare policy on the agenda of the plenary meeting of the Party Central Committee where the Party’s and the state’s most important affairs were discussed and decided, he stressed once again the need to decisively increase the output of milk, develop the milk processing technique and thoroughly ensure the quality of dairy products in the historic policy speech delivered at the Fifth Session of the 14th Supreme People’s Assembly of the DPRK and the letter sent to the participants in the Ninth Congress of the Union of Agricultural Workers of Korea.
He calculated the number of nursery and kindergarten children and the amount of daily milk consumption, took special measures for developing milk powder to be supplied to children and even tasted the milk powder made on an experimental basis caring about its quality. Thanks to the care of the benevolent father, the childcare law which can be found nowhere else in the world was adopted to legally guarantee the implementation of the Party’s childcare policy.
In order to bring up all the children on this land happily, he visited a windy port despite the cold midwinter weather to make sure that a fishery station, which specializes in the supply of fish for the baby homes, orphanages and primary and middle schools for orphans throughout the country, was set up and took measures for supplying the children with meat, fishes and even nutritious dried persimmon on a regular basis.
The Okryu Children’s Hospital and Haebaragi-brand school things loved by children are associated with the devotion and painstaking efforts of the respected fatherly Marshal who has cared so much for the rising generations.
He planned to build a modern school things factory on his long arduous journey to army units on the front line and gave instructions related to Haebaragi-brand school things by finding time in the busy days of guiding the Fifth Plenary Meeting of the Seventh Central Committee of the WPK. He also put his heart and soul into the normalization of production at the school things factory even on a New Year’s Day when all the people were celebrating the holiday filled with delight. Thanks to such painstaking efforts, children keep wearing a happy smile on their faces.
