Visiting the Hospital Four Times a Year
  The Democratic People's Republic of Korea has set 2025 as the first year of the revolution in the public health and is creating excellent examples of the development of the regional public health.
  City and county hospitals of different scales, which would lead the overall public health rejuvenation of the country, were built in Kangdong and Ryonggang counties and the city of Kusong in 2025, protecting the lives of the regional people and improving their health.
  The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un regarded it as a top-priority task of the Workers' Party of Korea and the government to make the public health sector modern and advanced, and energetically led the construction of regional hospitals.
  He visited the Kangdong County Hospital four times a year in order to wonderfully build it.
  The groundbreaking ceremony of the Kangdong County Hospital was held on February 6, 2025.



  Taking part in the groundbreaking ceremony that day, Comrade Kim Jong Un mentioned the urgent need of transforming the environment of cultural life of the regional people in fundamentally and ultimately eliminating the difference between the towns and the countryside and emphasized that it is an ideal result of the regional development policy to put the whole country on the even cultural level.
  This is how the construction of the Kangdong County Hospital started.
  Later, Comrade Kim Jong Un visited the construction site of the hospital again and again to lead the work of building modern public health facilities to be a great revolution for exceptionally promoting the public health sector which has lagged behind any other sectors.
  When he called at the construction site on June 2, he said the construction of a hospital is a complex of the latest medical technology and building techniques. He learned about the construction in detail and put forth tasks for making preparations for operating the hospital.



  When he visited the Kangdong County Hospital nearing completion again on October 30, he gave instructions on making good preparations for operating the hospital by assembling and setting up medical equipment with responsibility as its overall construction was completed on a highly qualitative level.



  Some time later on November 19, he took part in the inaugural ceremony of the Kangdong County Hospital.
  At the ceremony, he said a perfect county hospital was built and added with great pleasure that the hospital, which completely reversed the existing conception of a regional hospital, was exemplary in the course of its construction and it would be a good example of development of regional public health in the course of its operation as well.
  And he hoped that the medical workers, who would work in such wonderful hospital, would always treat the patients with the concern and affection of blood relationship and protect their health with high medical art. He also wished all the people in Kangdong County good health and happiness.





  The inauguration of the Kangdong County Hospital brought by the devoted efforts of Comrade Kim Jong Un served as an occasion of a leap forward and progress of important practical significance in further expanding and implementing the policy of the WPK on public health revolution.
