Pyongyang, April 25 (KCNA) --The deep love and affection of the benevolent father who spares nothing for the younger generation and glorifies the bright laughter of the children as the image of Korean-style socialism are overflowing in the schools wonderfully built in the northwestern parts of the DPRK, where the aftereffects of flood damage were removed.

The respected fatherly Marshal Kim Jong Un sent pianos, accordions, guitars, oungum, kayagum, harmonicas and other musical instruments as gifts to the schools newly built in the flood-hit areas in North Phyongan, Jagang and Ryanggang provinces.

Last year he took special measures for the education of schoolchildren from the flood-hit areas and personally visited the April 25 Hostel to warmly bless the future of the children. He took a measure to build wonderful schools adding pride to their native villages whose looks had undergone radical changes, and supply modern teaching aids and furnishings, educational equipment and sports apparatuses to them. This time he showed great benevolence of sending many musical instruments to them.

This reflects the meticulous love and affection of the fatherly Marshal who regards the children as priceless treasures and all hope and future and wants the schoolchildren to grow up cheerfully and bravely without envy in the world.

Meetings were held on the spot to convey the musical instruments sent by Kim Jong Un.

The venues of the meetings were in a festive mood with the deep gratitude and joy of the students and teaching staffs who were to receive the gifts.

Speakers said with deep emotion that the respected fatherly Marshal, cherishing the noble idea that there are our children before and above the people our Party upholds as Heaven, repeatedly provided the rising generations with dreamy happiness.

Representing the unanimous mind of schoolchildren and their parents, they respectfully extended deep thanks to Kim Jong Un who puts forward education as the first state affair to which priority should be given and the biggest efforts should be directed in any period and at any stage and brings the bright future of the rising generations into full bloom.

They called upon all the officials and teaching staffs to devote themselves to education and upon the students to study hard, take an active part in the organizational life and extracurricular activities and thus prepare themselves to be true sons and daughters of the fatherly Marshal, bearing deep in mind the great love and trust of the motherly Party.
