The election of deputies to the 15th Supreme People's Assembly of the DPRK took place at all the constituencies across the country on March 15 when the whole country was overflowing with the people's joy of greeting the historic day which would mark an occasion to further consolidate the people-centred socialist system of a Korean style and provide a powerful sovereign guarantee for the comprehensive development of the state.

Kim Jong Un, general secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and president of the State Affairs of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, visited the Chonsong Youth Coal Mine under the Sunchon Area Youth Coal-mining Complex to vote at the polling station of Sub-constituency No. 48 of Constituency No. 150 for the election of SPA deputies.

When Comrade Kim Jong Un arrived at the polling station, the coal miners and other local residents broke into enthusiastic cheers representing their boundless emotion and delight of being honoured to have him, whom they had longed to see even in their dreams, at their constituency on the meaningful election day for consolidating the supreme power of the DPRK as firm as a rock by the people themselves according to their will.

Kim Jong Un headed for the polling station, extending warm greetings to the coal miners for having increased coal production to positively contribute to the growth and development of the national economy with pure loyalty to the Party and the revolution, the country and the people and with gem-like patriotism.

He was courteously greeted by Ri Kyong Chol, chief secretary of the South Phyongan Provincial Committee of the WPK, and leading officials of the Sunchon Area Youth Coal-mining Complex and the Chonsong Youth Coal Mine.

Accompanying him were Kim Jae Ryong, Ri Il Hwan, Kim Tok Hun and Kim Yo Jong, senior officials of the Party and the government.

Kim Jong Un received a ballot from the chairperson of the election committee and voted for Jo Chol Ho, manager of the Chonsong Youth Coal Mine under the Sunchon Area Youth Coal-mining Complex, who was a candidate for SPA deputy.

As he met and had a conversation with Jo, he warmly encouraged him, hoping that he would faithfully discharge his responsibility and duty as a genuine representative of the people, a person in direct charge of activities of state power and a political activist, deeply mindful that the trust and expectations of the coal miners and other residents there are just the earnest requests of the country and the people.

Then he made a historic speech to the voters of the coal mine.

All the participants were deeply moved by the impassioned speech of Kim Jong Un who most highly appreciated the pure conscience and unassuming efforts of the coal miners before the country and the times and unveiled a brilliant blueprint for transforming the coal mines across the country.
