Anniversary of Kim Il Sung's Work Observed
Pyongyang, February 6 (KCNA) -- The work "On Further Strengthening the Party's Guidance over Construction of Socialist Economy" published by President Kim Il Sung on February 6, Juche 68 (1979), serves as precious guidelines to be held fast to by all the party organizations and officials in their present drive to make the country an economic power. Rodong Sinmun Friday says this in a signed article dedicated to the anniversary of the publication of the work.

The work expounds the importance and significance of the party guidance over the socialist economic construction, the issue for the party organizations to dynamically arouse the party members and other working people to implementing the economic policy of the party, the issue for the leading party officials, in particular, to lead the economic work in a responsible manner and the issue for the party officials to thoroughly equip themselves with the party's policy and decisively increase the level of economic, scientific and technical knowledge and so on.

Noting that all the successes achieved by the Korean people under the leadership of the Workers' Party of Korea in the 1970s, 1980s and recent years would have been unthinkable without the fresh and substantial guidance of the party organizations over the work of economy true to the intention of the President, the article goes on:

The line and policy of the WPK clearly indicate the goal and task for the drive for the economic construction and the ways to implement them at present.

A great surge will be brought about on all fronts of building a thriving nation when all the party organizations and officials thoroughly equip themselves with the party's idea and line, and work as required by them regarding the party's policy as their lifeline.

All the party organizations and officials should make positive contributions to bringing about a decisive turn in the building of an economic power with the new revolutionary upswing by steadily and thoroughly implementing the idea set forth by the President in the work.
