Vietnamese TV Gives Publicity to Traffic in Pyongyang
Pyongyang, May 10 (KCNA) -- The Central TV of Vietnam aired a program introducing the DPRK under the headline "Traffic in Pyongyang" on May 1.

The program said:

Traffic in Pyongyang is not congested compared with complicated traffic in cities of other Asian countries.

Pyongyang Metro has long been operated.

Streets in Pyongyang are wide enough for several cars to run at the same time.

Public transportation is a major transport means in Pyongyang. Roads are very convenient for traffic.

Pyongyang has an excellent road network because its plan was successfully worked out early in the 1950s when the war was at its height in Korea and it was reconstructed under the plan.

Pyongyang Metro is a worldwide masterpiece. Each station represents an art work.

Pyongyang satisfactorily meets its residents' traffic need even during rush hours in the morning and evening.

Stations of Pyongyang Metro are different from those in other countries. Newspapers conveying voices of the Workers' Party of Korea are displayed on notice boards there.

The DPRK has achieved leaping progress in its economic construction since the 1950s and Pyongyang has turned into a very modern city.
