SEOUL – The Democratic People’s Republic of Korea will convene two key meetings, including one to review the country's anti-pandemic policy, in coming weeks, state media said on Monday, as it reported no new COVID-19 cases since late July.

The DPRK Supreme People's Assembly will meet on Sept 7 to discuss law on rural development and organizational matters, according to the official KCNA.

The COVID meeting comes as the DPRK has said last week all of its patients with fever have recovered, marking the end of its first wave of the coronavirus pandemic since the virus outbreak in mid-May. It said around 4.77 million fever patients have fully recovered and 74 have died since late April.

The decision to convene the parliament came at a plenary meeting of the SPA's standing committee on Sunday, KCNA said.

At the weekend meeting, the participants adopted the law on medicines to establish a "strict system" to promote public health, among other issues.

Other matters on the table included revising the aerospace development law "to further legalize the activities" in the field and adopting the "law of self-guard" to establish what it calls "all-people self-guard system" to protect people's life and property, KCNA said, without elaborating.

In March, the DPRK's top leader Kim Jong-un called for expanding its space rocket launch site to advance its space ambitions, after the Republic of Korea and the United States accused it of testing a new intercontinental ballistic missile under the guise of space development.
