(KPL) Pyongyang, capital city of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, has now turned more magnificent under the wise guidance of Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un who is executing a grand plan for its development.

A new street, called Changjon, went up in the downtown area, followed in succession by modern streets and residential districts–typically, Mirae Scientists, Ryomyong, Songhwa, Hwasong, Rimhung and Jonwi streets and the Pothong Riverside Terraced Houses District–and monumental edifices have mushroomed to facilitate development of the educational, scientific, public health, cultural and other fields.

In particular, the project of building 50,000 flats in Pyongyang, as decided by the Workers’ Party of Korea at its Eighth Congress, has made progress successfully, with the result that a new modern urban district has come into existence in the Hwasong area, comprising super-highrise and highrise apartment blocks, which are in ideal harmony with one another for their high formative and artistic novelty as well as for advanced civilization, and unique commercial and neighbourhood-serving amenities and recreation facilities which are of high symbolic quality.

Pyongyang will turn more and more beautiful, winning still greater fame not only as living quarters of the people for their enjoyable and civilized life but also as a showcase of a new version of culture of the socialist Korea.

      Chinese couple runs ’first-aid stall’ for eight years to teach life-saving skills

      9/12/2025 10:53:33 AM

      In Taihe county, Fuyang, east China’s Anhui province, a unique stall has become a fixture in a local park every weekend and on public holidays. It does not sell snacks or trinkets. Instead, it displays cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) manikins and first-aid kits, inviting passersby to stop, learn, and practice essential life-saving techniques free of charge. The stall is run by Wu Lei, deputy head of the medical consortium office at Taihe County People’s Hospital, and his wife Liu Jing, head nurse of the hospital’s emergency department. For more than eight years, the couple has dedicated their spare time to this "first-aid stall," while also leading a volunteer team to schools, communities, and government offices. Together, they have helped over 100,000 people acquire life-saving skills. Wu traces the origins of their endeavor to a tragedy that still weighs heavily on him.
