Enthusiastic Parents of Students
Officials of the Pyongyang Municipal Power Distribution Station are giving an unstinted assistance to the educational work as devoted parents of students.
The station started the work for assistance to a school 10 years ago.
At that time its officials visited a primary school to learn about the supply of electricity and happened to see pupils take a sports lesson in the playground.
The children were playing football soiling their sportswear, which weighed heavily upon the minds of the officials.
The officials thought what they would have done if the pupils were their own children and grandchildren.
They regarded it as an important work they should take upon themselves.
A few months later, the playground of the school was covered with artificial turf and the children came to play there to their heart's content.
This is how the assistance to the school started. They prepared tens of thousand pieces of educational equipment, teaching tools and sporting goods and sent them to more than 20 educational institutions including the Pyongyang Teachers Training College and Moranbong Middle School No. 1.
This year, too, they sent a lot of building materials to the Pyongyang College of Electric Engineering, giving a help to improving its educational conditions and environment.
Here is Kim Kwang Suk, Vice-Rector of the Pyongyang College of Electric Engineering.
"Officials of the Pyongyang Municipal Power Distribution Station visit our college on a regular basis to learn about the bottlenecks, find out even what we fail to think of and solve it."
