Many Rural Dwelling Houses Built in DPRK

 Pyongyang, February 22 (KCNA) -- More than 113 000 dwelling houses have been built at 1 860-odd rural villages of over 500 farms across the country for the past four years since the programme for the rural revolution in the new era was advanced at the Fourth Plenary Meeting of the Eighth Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea, according to Rodong Sinmun.
The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un set it as the most important task in socialist rural construction to radically change the appearance and environment of the countryside at the Fourth Plenary Meeting of the Eighth WPK Central Committee. And he unfolded a bright blueprint for rural construction at plenary meetings of the Party Central Committee after that.
The central headquarters for rural construction was organized, regional architectural design and construction forces were formed, and material and technical foundations of the building-materials industrial sector and city and county construction brigades were strengthened.
State measures for supplying materials needed for the rural housing construction were taken, aggregate production bases with large capacity and cement storehouses built in cities and counties, and a fleet formed to transport cement to mountainous counties with unfavorable natural and geographical conditions by using the waterway of Lake Suphung.
In 2022, the first year of rural housing construction, more than 25 600 modern dwelling houses were built across the country. Many rural villages across the country have undergone a dramatic change over the past four years, along with the annual ceremonies of moving into new houses in the socialist countryside.
Rural houses with various and fresh styles were designed to preserve the regional features.
Last year, more than 32 000 rural houses with different structures and shapes were built, adding to the peculiarities of the countryside.
Modern public and production buildings were newly built at the Tapsang Farm in Unsan County of North Phyongan Province, the Yokgudo Farm in Paechon County of South Hwanghae Province and other farms across the country, thus providing model entities symbolic of the socialist countryside's rapid development.
The proud reality of the changing countryside is a clear epitome of the overall development and future of the DPRK. -0-
