One day in May 1946, President Kim Il Sung , together with officials, visited the Anju Plain.
He met a farmer working on a dry field and took his muddy hands, asking about his impressions of the agrarian reform and how he could farm well despite drought.
The farmer said that he could do farming better than the period of the colonial rule by the Japanese imperialists despite drought as he had his own land and that he would do farming well this year and thus buy a motor to pump out water next year.
After meeting the farmer, the President told officials that an irrigation project should be undertaken as soon as possible though the country's situation was very difficult and every farmer was demanding water.
Saying that the farmer's determination to buy a motor by doing farming well is a good idea, he said that if the state and farmers pool their efforts, the irrigation project will be no problem and that large irrigation projects should be done by the state and small irrigation ones by farmers themselves.
He visualized a plan for irrigation in rural areas, listening to even simple words of a farmer and realized the long-cherished desire of farmers for water by wisely leading the campaign for irrigation project. -0-
