Pyongyang, June 4 (KCNA) -- The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un, General Secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and President of the State Affairs of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, gave field guidance at the newly-inaugurated nuclear materials production factory on June 3.

Saying that the weapons-grade nuclear materials production capacity more than doubled during the past 5-year course of bolstering up the nuclear force under the direct guidance of the Eighth Central Committee of the WPK, he expressed satisfaction over the fact that the WPK's line of bolstering up nuclear forces is being thoroughly carried out thanks to the high technical capability developed by the nuclear science research group.

Finishing his important conclusion, Comrade Kim Jong Un said:

"Today we have updated the digits that are critical for our nuclear activities, and discussed some key matters.

In doing so, we have comprehensively considered the tactical and strategic requirements for building up our nuclear deterrent and, on the basis of this, adopted a highly responsible and crucial decision.

We have confirmed the order of priority for implementing the ambitious future plan designed to beef up our state’s nuclear forces at an exponential rate, as well as a requisite guarantee for the purpose.

This signifies an amazing, successful change that is beyond rhetorical description, a historic event that has set up an epochal milestone in rapidly upgrading our nuclear capabilities.

This nuclear potential that we have now is inconceivable apart from the worthwhile struggle we have conducted over the past five years.

Today, I would like to pay tribute, once again, to our nuclear scientists."

Is he preparing his daughter to become supreme marshall after him ? Lately I have been seeing her alot with him.
This viewpoint does exist in academic research circles.

According to scientific research and analysis, East Asians with abdominal obesity are more prone to symptoms such as hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and hyperglycemia. They also have a higher proportion of visceral fat, making them more susceptible to insulin resistance, elevated triglycerides, vasoconstriction, and inflammation.

Based on currently available photos, Kim Jong-un's physique falls into a high-risk category to some extent. Therefore, starting the training of a successor early is a reasonable option.

However, this is just a research and analysis viewpoint, without any conclusive evidence.

Hi @Michael , I think your translation tool is teasing you. That wasnt what my post was refering to. Or maybe you wanted to reply to someone else and mistakenly replied to me.

You mean: Kim Jong-un frequently brings his daughter to public events, possibly because he wants to groom her as his successor...

My reply is: Yes, this view exists. Based on observations, Kim Jong-un's health may be at risk, and he needs to groom a successor in advance.

Is there a misunderstanding here?

Oh. Got it know. Sorry for the confusion at my end.

Another analysis suggests that:

In the last two decades, the phenomenon of fathers excessively doting on their daughters has become particularly prevalent in China. This phenomenon is also very common throughout the Sinosphere (China, the Korean Peninsula, Japan, Vietnam, and overseas Chinese communities).

This phenomenon also exists in Western countries, known as "Daddy's girl." However, its prevalence in Western countries is not as strong or obvious as in the Sinosphere.

Kim Jong-un's doting on his daughter clearly fits this pattern.

US Forces Korea Commander Gen. Xavier Brunson has recently said that South Korea is a "dagger in the heart of Asia" if seen from China's east coast. Japan and South Korea are recently discussing an Acquisition and Cross-Servicing Agreement (ACSA) to mutually share military logistics like fuel, food, and ammunition. These provocations are certainly going to make China to prop up NK even more firmly both militarily and economically. It's no accident that now Chinese president Xi has just paid a visit to NK after 7 years.
