   Kumya, September 20 (KCNA) -- An army-people meeting took place at the construction site of the Kumya River Power Station on Sept. 20 to thoroughly implement the instruction given by Kim Jong Il while providing field guidance to the power station construction site in September of Juche 95 (2006). Kim Jong Il clearly indicated the tasks to be undertaken to wind up ahead of schedule the construction of the Kumya River Power Station, a big hydro-power station which is of weighty importance in realizing the nation's electrification, and ways to do so.
    The reporter and speakers at the meeting referred to the measures for concentrating all efforts on the project to complete it earlier than scheduled.
    They called on all the builders of the power station to work a miracle in the construction by displaying popular heroism and total devotion in the efforts to honor the above-said instruction and thus make a tangible contribution to the building of a great prosperous powerful nation.
    If a huge dam is built in the upper reaches of the Kumya River rich in water resources in South Hamgyong Province to form a big man-made lake, this will make it possible to build several power stations in tiers to produce a great deal of electricity, prevent flood damage and sufficiently supply irrigation water to the Kumya Plain.
