North Korea held the Supreme People’s Congress, which is our national assembly, and replaced many of the deputy prime ministers. It is interpreted as a measure to renew the environment by focusing on overcoming the economic crisis, but President Kim Jong-un did not attend this meeting. Reporter Hwang Hye-kyung reports. The Supreme People’s Assembly, convened five days after the VIII Party Congress, focused solely on the economy. First, the cabinet that President Kim Jong-un has designated as the “Economic Command Tower” has changed dramatically. Prime Minister Kim Deok-hoon remains the same, but six of the eight deputy prime ministers have been replaced. In particular, the head of the National Planning Committee, which oversees the planning and establishment of economic policies and supervision, has also changed from Kim Il-cheol to Park Jeong-geun. Internal criticism also followed. Prime Minister Kim Deok-hoon said the latest five-year strategy for economic development was crafted out of subjective wish without having to specifically calculate the reality and feasibility of execution, and that he was not good at operations and command. . He noted that he did not overcome the defeatism, the looks and the tricks. This is the first year of the five-year national economic development plan and this year’s budget has not been significantly increased. Budget revenue increased only 0.9% from last year, while investment in economic construction increased only 0.6%. Compared to the annual increase of 5-6% in the last three years, it has decreased significantly. There was no resurrection of the presidential system and the reorganization of the Council of State, which had drawn attention. As President Kim Jong-un, who has become the party’s general secretary, is expected to devote all his abilities to breaking the economic crisis, it is noteworthy how the relationship between the two Koreas and the United States will be broken, which it had only been observed so far. This is YTN Hwang Hye-kyung.
