Visit to Changgwang Shop

Kim Jong Un, First Secretary of the Workers’ Party of Korea, First Chairman of the DPRK National Defence Commission and Supreme Commander of the Korean People’s Army, visited Changgwang Shop newly built in the Mirae Scientists Street.

He looked round the room dedicated to the history of the shop.

Noting that the shop, set up in November 1983 at the initiative of Chairman Kim Jong Il, has rendered great services to improving the people’s standards of material and cultural living for scores of years, he said the construction of its new building in the Mirae Scientists Street makes it possible for the shop to perform more fully its mission and duty as a commercial service base exclusively marketing various kinds of daily necessities made by the workers in the armaments industry.

He went round several floors of the shop to learn in detail about its construction and the preparations for service activities.

He expressed great satisfaction at the fact that the soldier-builders have successfully built the shop with a perfect appearance as a commercial service base while suiting to the aesthetic tastes of the Korean people.

Noting that all the counters of the shop are full of a variety of quality goods made by the workers in the armaments industry and the goods are well exhibited, he was very pleased as the shop looks neat and fresh and its atmosphere appeals to his taste.

The shop has an important duty and role to play, he said, giving instructions to be tackled in organizing its service activities well.

Noting that he was told the people say the new building of the shop looks very fascinating and they are anxious to know the date of its opening, he instructed to open the shop on the occasion of October 10 by making better preparations for its operation lest any slightest shortcomings should be revealed there.

He expressed his expectation and belief that the sales personnel of the shop would fully display the spirit of devoted service for the people, bearing in mind the ennobling love of the great leaders Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il for the people.
