I can't afford to go on holidays like this and if i could others couldn't to enjoy it with me. Plz DPRK liberate my country.
The East Sea's famous ship-shaped islands are booming with attractive coastal tourism.
The great joy and romance of the people who are fully enjoying the new civilization and new welfare provided by the Motherland Party is overflowing in the Wonsan Kalma Coastal Tourist Area.

The 10-mile white sand beach of the Galma Peninsula, which is perfectly equipped with various top-class tourist service conditions and an environment, has been bustling with workers from all over the country visiting to enjoy the attractive coastal tourism since the tourism service began.

It is worth seeing the energetic sight of workers submerging themselves in the rippling sea water and people water skiing and speed boating, but motorcycling on the white sand beach and sand volleyball also attract the attention of guests.

The laughter of people enjoying the thrill of sliding down steep slides and bowl-shaped rapid water slides is in full bloom at Myeongsa Ship-ri Outdoor Water Park.

Uniquely designed food service networks and commercial service facilities also welcome guests by showcasing East Sea specialties.

As the enchanting night view unfolded, the joy and romance of the workers who were absorbed in the nighttime atmosphere of the famous place overflowed everywhere, and the happy songs from the windows of the brightly lit accommodations did not stop until deep into the night. (End)

When will China totally open its doors to the DPRK in terms of food and trade? Fuck yankee gonna do?

>>2368151
What's the situation currently, actually on the ground?
I know that DPRK produced goods for the export market go through China. That the border is pretty porous as many cross for work and for medicine and so on. I seen a slew of headlines insinuating that their relationship is on the rocks but the articles i did read about relationship between DPRK and China deteriorating was around DPRK strengthening it's relationship with Russia, but i do not see particularly why it has to be a zero-sum game in this regard, the spooks and think-tank ghouls were saying the same thing re Vietnam and Chinese relations.
As always with DPRK from the outside it's never so easy to get a straight line from anyone.

China provides pretty much all of its imports. Recently it has expanded what it provides and how freely it provides them, like cars and such. North Korea has traffic now because so many have bought Chinese EVs.

Any decent books on how Kim Il Sung navigated the sino soviet split?

Watched this film with my gf recently. Overall it's pretty decent, though it's a little hard to follow in parts because some things are left unexplained (probably because the 'true story' is more well known there naturally) and the subtitles on the version I watched were a little wonky.

Basically it's recently after the war and the DPRK is rebuilding. Reactionaries within the party are plotting to sabotage these efforts in order to undermine faith in the party (and Great General Kim Il Sung pbuh ( ;~;)7), and the plot is uncovered by a nurse sent to the household of one of the conspirators to take care of his son.

The conspirator's wife can totally get it.

This is part of a wider project to do with mitigating flooding and environmental concerns, as well as to build houses for all those affected by flooding, for other examples:
http://www.kcna.kp/kp/category/articles/q/e95919e123df8f756203fb1c4cfd3b3c5ba4baa51eb151f118c0554a58d0c53f5767493e039fd99cafec1d3d3d82686d.kcmsf
And all those are just in relation to rivers, not to mention the forests and so on, they're really in to tree planting for environmental reasons. DPRK is very much ahead with climate change stuff by a wide margin, (it's also one of Kim's large projects these big sometimes vertical greenhouses).
I honestly have not seen other examples of floods and so on being dealt with so well in other countries, i'm old enough to remember Katrina and so on in the USA too.

Also from just this month a report on some of these projects:
Achievement of Results in Nampo City Road Technology Reconstruction, River Improvement, and Coastal Breakwater Construction
Nampo City is pursuing a project to improve the appearance of the region and is seeing results.
The City Environmental Protection Management Office made plans and launched a propaganda campaign and organizational work to get all the workers and laborers to rise up.

So far this year, we have completed approximately 130 km of road paving, tens of thousands of square meters of feldspathic stone piling, and coastal breakwater construction.
In the Gangseo district, gravel and pitch pavement were removed from several tens of kilometers of roads, with labor and materials put in the first place.

In the port area and Yonggang County, they focused on eliminating areas at risk of flood damage and completed dam construction, water ditch construction, and bridge repairs in a short period of time.
In the Cheonrima District and Daean District, concrete paving was carried out in the assigned sections while complying with the requirements of the construction method.

In Oncheon-gun and Waudo-gu, coastal breakwater construction projects such as 20,000㎥ of embankment soil and several thousand㎡ of embankment stone were put forward to secure security to prevent land loss, including farmland.
The Daedong River Dredging Project Office of the National Land and Environment Protection Management Office also increased the operating rate of its machinery and carried out the digging of approximately 8,000㎥ of riverbed. (End)

Wow, according to what sources? The fact is there is simply no reliable information about how the DPRK government actually works, but if the emigrés (the ones that aren't literally on the KCIA payroll) are to be believed then its nothing like its portrayed in propaganda.

That's not true, there are numerous government bodies at various levels in the DPRK with elected leadership. Generally speaking the entire CC and Politburo are elected in ML states. Moreover the fact that three members of the same family have held high ranking positions means nothing if you don't know what those positions actually are and how they interact with other government bodies, the legislative process, etc.

It is kind of weird how Kim Il Sung is getting glazed almost a hundred years later even now in the couple movies I've seen, but considering the propaganda assault the dprk is under even now I kinda get it. And Americans with their founding father worship really have no room to talk.

The creation of the world by the East Sea's famous scenic spot, which clearly demonstrates the boundless creativity and bold practical power of socialist Korea
Regarding the world-class coastal tourist city and cultural resort for the people that has been established in Myeongsa Ship-ri, Galma Peninsula
Following the splendid blueprint laid out by the great Party Central Committee, a coastal tourist city of our own style and a cultural resort for the people has risen magnificently in the scenic Myeongsa Ship-ri area of the East Sea, engraving the history of civilization and endless prosperity of a powerful country that we ideally engrave.

The wise leadership of the Workers' Party of Korea , which holds up our people, the best in the world, as the sky and endlessly unfolds world-class scenery for the people's happiness on this land, brought to mind a national treasure-level marine park and a luxurious grand palace on the shores of the East Sea, which had been regarded as a natural landscape for thousands of years.

The Wonsan Kalma Coastal Tourist Zone, which is equipped with the highest level of tourism conditions for domestic and foreign guests, is a masterpiece of our tourism industry and an epitome of socialist civilization, with hotels and inns of various sizes and unique shapes, beach service facilities, various sports and entertainment facilities, commercial and catering service facilities, and various service networks that are well-organized in artistic reciprocity, compatibility, connectivity, and formativeness suited to the characteristics of the coastal area, forming an enchanting architectural beauty.

Under the outstanding leadership of the great Party Central Committee , which has unfolded the grand plan and development strategy to bring about a turn-of-the-century change on this land and has steadily written a new era of dazzling prosperity, our people and People's Army soldiers have, with mass heroism and unyielding fighting spirit, erected a spectacular example of socialist civilization blossoming on the Galma Peninsula, thereby powerfully demonstrating to the world once again the model of struggle in the era of the Workers' Party, the boundless development potential unique to our state and the development speed of our own style.

The Wonsan Kalma Coastal Tourist Area, which has risen as a monumental creation of the revival of civilization while emphasizing the beautiful scenery of the East Sea scenic spot, is the noble embodiment of the grand plan and wise leadership of Comrade Kim Jong Un, who regards the people's laughter and happiness as a symbol of the socialist system and a criterion for assessing national power and devotes himself to promoting the people's welfare and realizing his ideals, and is a loving gift from the motherly Party to our great people in this meaningful year marking the 80th anniversary of the founding of the Party .

<The Galma Peninsula unfolded by the great party central government

<A new history of change

Comrade Kim Jong Un, who finds the greatest joy in the people's happiness and considers serving the people to be the greatest pleasure, has laid out a grand blueprint to build a world-class cultural resort in a scenic spot on the East Sea.

Myeongsa Ship-ri on the Galma Peninsula, which has been known since ancient times as an outstanding scenic spot due to its beautiful natural scenery and the ten-ri long sandbar stretching along the shore, is an ecologically and coastally environmentally superior attraction compared to famous tourist destinations in other countries.

Comrade General Secretary , who has long been nurturing the grand plan to build a cultural rest area for the people on the beautiful and scenic beaches, set forth in his New Year’s address of 2018 the task of completing the construction of the Wonsan-Kalma Coastal Tourist Zone in the shortest period of time with the united efforts of the army and people, and laid out all measures including organizing a powerful construction force and providing equipment, materials and funds.

The energetic and meticulous guidance of the respected General Secretary was a programmatic guideline that thoroughly implemented the people-first political ideology and the Juche-oriented architectural aesthetics from the design stage, thereby setting the standard for modern architecture.

Even while he was busy looking after the overall affairs of the country, Comrade General Secretary personally studied the street formation plan and pointed out the direction and means to complete the design without any flaws at the construction site where the sea breeze was blowing. He also looked over the massive street formation plan one by one and corrected each and every detail of the shape.

The number of plans that Comrade General Secretary has guided to develop the tourist area into a magnificent world-class coastal tourist city boasting its enchanting appearance and modern beauty and into the best marine park is as many as thousands.

Under the energetic and meticulous guidance of the Party Central Committee, designers from various units including the Paekdusan Architectural Research Institute, Pyongyang Urban Design Research Institute, Pyongyang Urban Planning Design Research Institute, Bugang Design Research Institute, Advanced Design Research Institute, Pyongyang University of Architecture Architectural Design Research Institute, and Kangwon Provincial Design Research Institute combined their creative wisdom and passion to complete some 42,000 design drawings.

The journey of devotion of the respected General Secretary , who personally became the designer, contractor and builder and visited the construction site three times in the first year alone and organized and directed the entire process of building a tourist city from the front, was endless.

Comrade General Secretary , who left his first mark on the dusty construction site in May 2018, learned about the overall situation, including the progress of the construction and the measures to secure materials and equipment, and took powerful measures to successfully expedite the construction by solving all problems as a top priority.

At that time, because the construction of tourist areas placed absolute importance on the characteristics of the terrain and geological conditions, a series of shortcomings emerged, including the buildings being individualized, having no height difference, and lacking artistic reciprocity, compatibility, and connectivity between the buildings.

The on-site guidance conducted by the respected General Secretary in August and October of that year, despite the sweltering heat of the hottest days of summer and the cold frosts of autumn, served as an important turning point in establishing the Wonsan-Kalma Coastal Tourist Zone as an exemplary entity of the development of our own style of tourism where our unique charm stands out.

The respected Comrade General Secretary pointed out the defects in the design and construction and reminded them one by one that the overall street formation should be artistically refined by making the connections between buildings and the various shapes and size changes of the architectural composition more harmonious and distinctive, ensuring compatibility and ensuring connectivity.

The construction of high-rise office buildings in the form of a complex government complex, large hotels, and multi-story guesthouses, and the addition of various service buildings including movie theaters and arcades to create a harmonious combination of heights and connect the buildings with their foundations to create a unique street formation in our own style, served as noble guidelines for the transformation of Myeongsa Ship-ri.

Under the great teacher's meticulous guidance on detailed issues that should not be overlooked during construction, such as the construction of a large integrated parking lot, the remodeling of Galma Station, the creation of a garden, and the resolution of public transportation, Galma Peninsula has been able to clearly reveal its identity as a top tourist attraction.

The artificial ponds and fishing spots that blend in with the surrounding environment and exude natural beauty, the plentiful service facilities, and the emergency medical facilities built in the white sand beach areas are all filled with the lofty view of the people and the future of Comrade General Secretary , who holds the people up as if they were heaven and devotes everything for their welfare.

Comrade General Secretary , who visited the construction site early in the morning in April 2019, emphasized that since the Party is building the building with great determination and investment of huge funds and effort for the people, the quality of construction should be guaranteed at the highest level for every element and corner of the building so that it will not be lacking even in 50 or 100 years.

All buildings are designed on the principle of optimizing their usability and convenience, and the construction is done with the utmost conservation of materials while maintaining a modern aesthetic; the problem of forming convenient sidewalks, tramways and bicycle paths for the convenience of users and producing and sending more battery-powered cars; the problem of building floating piers for the floating panel accommodations so that boats can be boarded; the problem of installing outdoor clocks in buildings and various places so that beachgoers can tell the time, there is no place that has not been touched by the General Secretary.

On July 16, 2024, Comrade General Secretary, who visited the construction site that is being transformed day by day into a cultural and tourist attraction for the people , emphasized that as the construction has entered the final stage, the momentum should not be slackened, the construction achievements should be further expanded, and the operational preparations should be carried out in a predictable and flawless manner.

The respected Comrade General Secretary gave meticulous guidance on issues such as scientifically examining the service operation capability and possibility, selecting service units, and actively promoting the operation preparation work, securing parking capacity appropriate to the capacity of the tourist area, building an amusement park, forming a cultural life zone, securing sewage and wastewater treatment capacity, training experts according to the type of service work, and securing materials.

Comrade General Secretary , who has left his mark on the Myeongsa Ship-ri of the East Sea once again until the last days of December 2024 when the year is drawing to a close, said that service ability and level are important factors that determine the value of a tourist destination and its prospects, and gave guidelines for the construction of the new-era tourism industry, including the issue of actively developing various types of service businesses and nurturing world-class service experts.

The outstanding leadership of Comrade General Secretary , who has an infinitely noble view of the people and has continued the journey of devotion and logos to provide our people with a happy life that is the envy of the world, has brought about a new world-changing event in the Myeongsa Ship-ri scenic spot in the East Sea.

A large - scale construction project to develop the Wonsan-Kalma Coastal Tourist Zone into a unique and modern coastal tourist city of our own style that we can be proud of showing off to the world has been launched at a rapid pace in accordance with the splendid blueprint laid out by the respected General Secretary, a genius in creation and construction.

<Through unwavering pioneering and arduous struggles

<A miraculous architectural complex that came to mind

The Galma campaign was in turmoil from the start due to the strong will and unyielding struggle of the people who rose up in support of the great plan and determination of Comrade Kim Jong Un to bring new happiness and civilization to our people as soon as possible .

The construction of the Wonsan Galma Coastal Tourist Zone, which required the creation of a city on the sand dunes of the East Sea, was a huge construction project that surpassed imagination in terms of its scale and content.

In the tourist area, it was necessary to build hundreds of buildings, including hotels, inns, guesthouses, floating panel accommodations with a capacity of about 20,000 people, with a variety of modern styles that match the coastal scenery, as well as a general building, tourist information center, financial institution, health and exercise center, theater, movie theater, outdoor water park, and various service buildings and management buildings, with a total floor area of approximately 1,449,100 m2.

It was an unprecedented grand creative feat in the history of marine park construction in our country, which required the completion of a beach with a daily capacity of 40,000 people along the Myeongsa Ship-ri Baeksang Beach stretching along the East Sea coastline, service facilities for the convenience of tourists, 19,600 m of roads, 4,780 m of coastal protection stone walls, and 15,000 m of waterways.

Since the first shot of construction began in mid-March 2018, each process has been carried out rapidly and three-dimensionally.

The People's Army soldiers and construction workers, despite the bitter cold and sea winds, cleared away the frozen ground and mud and proceeded with excavation, transporting an amount of rocks and soil equivalent to removing an entire mountain, thereby raising the overall ground level by 2 meters, thereby opening a breakthrough that will allow full-scale progress in basic construction.

By accelerating the land readjustment and the filling of the embankment, the construction team focused all their efforts and resources on the substructure construction from the beginning of the construction in accordance with the principle of prioritizing the substructure, and qualitatively completed the basic substructure pipeline construction by the end of April 2018.

Neither the hostile forces' extremely vicious isolationist maneuvers to obliterate our socialist system, nor the harsh natural disasters that struck without warning, nor the health crisis that threatened the world could stop the builders' proud advance to build a world-class coastal tourist city under the high banner of the principle of self-reliance.

Raising high the slogan, “Let us take charge of both national defense and socialist construction!”, the special forces unit of the Korean People’s Army was the first to complete the skeleton construction of the Galmahae Songnyo Hotel in a single breath, as if they were completing the basic construction work.

The military construction workers in charge of building the hotel in the traditional architectural style also focused on improving the quality of construction and completed the foundation and structural concrete pouring of nearly 30,000 ㎥ ahead of schedule.

Thanks to the heroic struggle of soldier-builders who ran at the forefront of the advance with the absolute and unchanging belief that the Party's determination is put into practice and victory, the structural construction of about 100 targets was completed in just over two months from the time the first shovel was put into the ground.

Several construction units, including the Social Security Brigade, Pyongyang City Brigade, Speed Battle Youth Shock Brigade Management Bureau Brigade, and Pyongyang Construction Committee Brigade, concentrated construction equipment and continuously created advanced construction methods and exemplary experiences to thoroughly guarantee construction quality and continuously increase the construction speed.

Thanks to the stubborn offensive spirit of the builders, in less than a year, 3 million ㎥ of ground stratification work, 20㎞ of roadbed work, 15㎞ of waterway work, coastal embankment embankment work and coastal park work, 40 jeongbo of white sand beach management, 170,000㎞ of sub-network work, and hundreds of building frame work were completed, giving Myeongsa Ship-ri a new look.

After receiving a new order from the Party Central Committee to add symbolic buildings befitting the coastal tourist city, the People's Army soldiers and construction workers immediately began groundwork.
