Kim Jong Un Visits Breeding Station of KPA
Pyongyang, October 8 (KCNA) -- Supreme Commander of the Korean People's Army Kim Jong Un, first secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and first chairman of the National Defence Commission of the DPRK, visited the Breeding Station No. 621 of the KPA where its first phase construction was completed.

He personally initiated the construction of the station and chose its site in a good place, unraveling problems arising in the construction one by one.

He visited the construction site on May 20 and set the goal of the 1st phase to make sure that a comprehensive breeding center is built to specialize in breeding grass-eating domestic animals of good stock including goat.

Soldier-builders waged a high-pitched drive day and night, creating pasture covering hundreds of hectares and building many establishments and pens and folds in a vast area of more than 1500 hectares. As a result, the first phase construction was successfully wound up and the breeding of domestic animals of good stock started, bringing about a dramatic change in the remote mountain village.

After being briefed on the layout of the station and its long-term plan, he went round the breeding research center, management building, cultural hall, breeding pens and dwelling houses to learn about the construction in detail.

He praised the soldier-builders for successfully carrying out the order of the supreme commander to complete the first phase construction of the station by the anniversary of the WPK in a matter of a little over 4 months.

He was very pleased that a good prospect was opened for supplying more meat to service personnel thanks to the labor drive of the soldier-builders.

Domestic animals of good stock bred by the station are very high in economic effectiveness, he said, adding that the People's Army is taking the lead in carrying out the behests of President Kim Il Sung and leader Kim Jong Il on obtaining meat from grass.

Noting that it is important to settle the matter of fodder in order to massively breed grass-eating domestic animals, he gave instructions to the station to exert a lot of efforts not only for effectively using existing pasture but creating new grass land and planting a lot of trees.

As the station performs the function and role as an advanced base in carrying out the WPK's policy which calls for considering supply service as a struggle for defending socialism, he instructed the station to work out bold and big operations for building the station and push ahead with the project under a carefully worked out plan on the basis of the successes and experience gained and thus turn this area into a modern breeding station.

He set the goal of the 2nd phase construction of the station and indicated orientation and ways for attaining it.

He was accompanied by KPA Vice-Marshal Choe Ryong Hae, director of the General Political Bureau of the Korean People's Army, KPA General Jang Jong Nam, minister of the People's Armed Forces, and Hwang Pyong So and Hong Yong Chil, vice department directors of the C.C., the WPK.
