Respected Comrade Kim Jong Un Gives Field Guidance to Major Munitions Factories
Pyongyang, August 6 (KCNA) -- 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 to major munitions factories including a factory producing shells of large-caliber multiple rocket launchers from August 3 to 5 to learn about the implementation of the core goal of the Party's policy on munitions industry.
He was accompanied by Jo Yong Won, Kim Jae Ryong, Jo Chun Ryong, Kim Yo Jong and Pak Jong Chon.
The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un was greeted at the relevant factories by Kim Jong Sik, Hong Yong Chil and Kim Yong Hak, vice directors of the Department of Munitions Industry of the Party Central Committee, and leading officials of the factories.
Inspecting the factory producing shells for super large-caliber multiple rocket launchers, Kim Jong Un acquainted himself in detail with the technical and production process updating recently made by the factory as well as its current production.
He highly praised the factory for making great successes in the work to attain the long-term goal for updating production processes, assigned at the 5th Plenary Meeting of the 8th Central Committee of the WPK, and to create the capacity for serial production of large-caliber multiple rocket launcher shells, a task set forth by him during his field guidance to the factory on November 9 last year.
He expressed great satisfaction over the fact that the Party's policies are correctly implemented at the factory as it has improved the precision processing capability and realized automation by introducing new equipment and measuring devices on a large scale into the whole production process to create the serial production capability for the shells of ultra-precision large-caliber multiple rocket launchers and radically improved the working environment condition.
Noting that the factory created the capability to spin single propulsion tube, true to the Party's idea on unconditionally developing and introducing a horizontal power rotato-press working mill, he said this is a thing greatly worthy of pride that plays a key role in improving the quality of products by raising the level of modernization of production processes based on our own efforts and technology.
He repeatedly expressed his great pleasure over the fact that various measuring devices were introduced to ensure the scientific accuracy in the control of quality of shells and shorten the time for heat treatment of propulsion tube and sci-tech measures for increasing the productivity were taken.
He also noted with appreciation that automation and precision have been realized on a high level to increase productivity while ensuring precision of products in warhead production process, stable helm production process and the process of making and assembling launching tubes and such various scientific and technological steps were taken as introduction of modern measuring devices.
He set forth the issues arising in the management of the factory and the important orientation of the national defence economic work including the work to create the capacity for serial production of new kinds of ammunition.
He stressed once again the important responsibility and duty of the factory in further rounding off our army's war preparations, indicating the immediate tasks facing the model factory, which symbolizes the development and modernity of our national defence industry, and the ways for carrying out its long-term tasks.
He ardently called upon the officials, workers, technicians and military inspectors of the factory to go all out for the successful implementation of the grand national defence development strategy set forth by the Party Central Committee by creditably carrying forward the traditional and proud history of our defence industry which has safeguarded the Party and the revolution, the country and the people through munitions production with boundless loyalty and patriotism.
Kim Jong Un also guided on the spot the project for building a new light electrical appliance factory which will play an important role in modernizing the Korean People's Army (KPA).
After being told about the state of construction work and the issues arising in it, he gave important instructions and learned about the layout of production lines and capacity as a model factory in the modernized light electrical industry.
He set forth the orientation and ways for building the factory into a modern one as befits a core factory taking the lead in the munitions industry of the DPRK.
Kim Jong Un also acquainted himself with the production of new serial small arms.
It is the most important and urgent matter in making war preparations to modernize small arms, to be carried by the frontline units of the KPA and other units with a duty to wage an armed struggle behind the enemy lines in contingency, in keeping with the changed aspect of war, he said, expressing the determination of the Party Central Committee on the production and development orientation of powerful small arms of our style.
Noting that lightening and concentration are the main core indices in the development and production of small arms, he set forth important tasks for producing small arms of new types and new calibers to satisfy the constitutional peculiarities of our service personnel and combat performance.
He indicated a long-term production goal of the factory and the orientation of updating the production processes for attaining it.
Kim Jong Un also went to a factory manufacturing the engines for strategic cruise missile and armed unmanned aerial vehicle, and set forth important tasks.
Saying that the factory takes lion's share nobody can play in the technical refinement and serial production of recently-developed new strategic weapons, he specified the ways for steadily enhancing the performance and reliability of the engine, a key element in the composition of weapon system, and rapidly expanding its production capacity.
He stressed the need to simultaneously and thoroughly ensure the speed and quality and quantity in the production of engines by giving definite precedence to the measures for supply of various kinds of materials necessary for manufacturing engines, adding that the factory should put the production processes on a modern, scientific and precise basis of a higher level and continue to improve its working and production conditions and civilized living environment.
He requested the officials, workers and technicians of the factory to mass-produce various kinds of cutting-edge strategic weapon engines with their own efforts and technology by giving fullest play to their creative wisdom and enthusiasm and thus make a great contribution to bringing about a revolution in developing new strategic weapons of our style.
Kim Jong Un learned about the production of erector launchers for major strategic weapons.
He acquainted himself in detail with the fulfillment of the plan the factory has carried out until now to attain the goal for immediate production of strategic missile erector launchers, set forth by the Party Central Committee, and its long-term production.
Stressing once again the pivotal role of the factory in implementing the military strategy of the Party Central Committee, he highly appreciated the fact that the factory has built a firm production foundation and dynamically pushed ahead with the production of erector launchers by concentrating efforts on updating production processes and increasing production capacity, in line with the intention of the Party which set the production of large-sized erector launchers as the most important work for bolstering up the national defence capability.
The key to the development of the defence industry lies in giving fullest play to the mental power of the munitions workers, he said, stressing the need to actively help them display their distinguished patriotism and fighting spirit, deeply mindful of their heavy responsibility and mission for the munitions production in the most important work for bolstering up the country's defence capability and to pay deep attention to providing good living conditions for them.
Upon receiving the great trust and direct instructions of Kim Jong Un, the officials, workers and technicians of the major munitions factories firmly pledged to make redoubled efforts, again aware of their important mission and duty of defending the outpost in bolstering up the national defence capabilities and thus faithfully uphold the revolutionary cause of the Workers' Party of Korea with rapid successes in the war preparations of the KPA and the development and production of Juche-based ultra-modern strategic weapons.
Immortal Banner for National Liberation
Pyongyang, August 7 (KCNA) -- President Kim Il Sung published many works which clarified the Juche-oriented line, strategy and tactics of the Korean revolution during the bloody great anti-Japanese war, thus providing a powerful ideological and theoretical weapon for accomplishing the historic cause of national liberation.
He clarified the Juche-based revolutionary line in "The Path of the Korean Revolution", a report made by him at the historic Kalun Meeting in Juche 19 (1930), and indicated the tasks and ways for solving the problems arising in successfully carrying out the Korean revolution in an independent and creative way.
In the works published in each period and at each stage of the anti-Japanese revolutionary struggle, including "The Tasks of Communists in the Strengthening and Development of the Anti-Japanese National-Liberation Struggle" and "Let Us Break the Present Deadlock and Lead a Continuous Advance of the Revolution", he consistently stressed that the Korean communists should firmly maintain the independent stand.
He also authored lots of works that set forth the policies for the expansion and development of the anti-Japanese revolutionary struggle, including the position of the armed struggle in the national liberation struggle in colonies, the strategy and tactics of the armed struggle with guerrilla warfare as their keynote, the establishment of guerrilla bases, and the laying of mass foundations.
In the 1940s he published such works as "Let Us Accomplish the Cause of National Liberation with Full Confidence in Victory" and "We Should Carry Out the Korean Revolution by Our Own Efforts" to cope with the new situation in which the Japanese imperialists' moves for continental aggression got more vicious and the Soviet-Japan Neutrality Pact was concluded. He instilled into the people and members of the Korean People's Revolutionary Army (KPRA) the firm faith that they can carry out the Korean revolution with their own efforts, and encouraged all the small units and groups of the KPRA and the revolutionary organizations in the homeland to wage a more courageous struggle for national liberation with their own efforts.
In his historic speech made at the Tumubong Meeting in 1943 "Let Us Achieve the Cause of National Liberation by the Efforts of Our Nation by Implementing the Three-point Line of National Liberation", he scientifically analyzed the situation at home and abroad and indicated the three lines for national liberation and the concrete tasks and ways for implementing them.
The Korean people successfully accomplished the historic cause of national liberation under the outstanding leadership of Kim Il Sung who firmly maintained the independent stand and led the nationwide struggle for defeating the Japanese imperialists, with firm reliance on the internal revolutionary forces in the period of the anti-Japanese revolutionary struggle.
