For People's Health

Respected Comrade General Secretary Kim Jong Un inspected the Samjiyon Potato Farina Production Factory in July 2018.

While going round the factory, he suddenly asked the accompanying officials about a hospital being built in the then county of Samjiyon.

He stressed that the hospital should be built as a model for other county hospitals across the country, giving an instruction to work out a plan for furnishing the hospital with all necessary equipment so as to enable it to satisfactorily fulfill its function and role as a mountainous county hospital.

He emphasized the need to supply good medical appliances not only to central hospitals but also to the highly populated regions or areas far away from big hospitals. He added that it would be inappropriate for the sick people in the model county to go to the provincial seat for medical examination.

That day he also stressed the need to take proper measures for ensuring medical care of the residents of the county during the reconstruction of the hospital. -0-
