In the DPRK, there are dedicated vans for children and such vehicles continue to grow in kind as children are given top priority.

Recently, there came into being the vans for the delivery of school uniforms.

They transport the tailored uniforms with name tags of each student and they neatly hang in the vans without any crease. 

“Uniforms are carried to students by the dedicated vans. Parents do not need to give finishing touches to them, as they were made according to the guidelines on the body measurement of students,” said Kim Sol Hong, headmaster of Tangsang Primary School in Mangyongdae District, Pyongyang.

There are also dedicated vans for delivering dairy products and popcorn for children of nurseries and kindergartens.

A kindergarten teacher in Taesong District, Pyongyang, said that various nutritious foods made at state expense are transported to her kindergarten by a dedicated van every day.

People can often see on Pyongyang streets such vehicles delivering fermented bean, fish and dried persimmon to the Pyongyang Baby Home, Pyongyang Orphanage, Pyongyang Primary School for Orphans and Pyongyang Middle School for Orphans.

The state ensures that students of those schools are provided with a variety of fermented bean products of the Pyongyang Condiments Factory on a regular basis and that a fishery station dedicated to supplying them with fish put fishing on a normal basis.

In addition, dried persimmon workteams were newly organized in persimmon-growing areas to send dried persimmons with high nutritive value to those children by the dedicated vehicles.

All these policies were adopted thanks to the meticulous guidance and concern of the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un who spares nothing for children, calling them the “king” of the country.

The benefits the state bestows on children across the country with motherly affection and efforts continue to grow, regardless of whether the conditions are favourable or unfavourable.
