Koreans Build Economic Power with Mental Power
Pyongyang, July 10 (KCNA) -- The servicepersons and people of the DPRK, who have become persons of firm confidence, will and powerful spirit, overcoming ordeals under the Songun leadership of the Workers' Party of Korea, are now building an economic power vigorously.

It is firm resolution and will for the WPK to open without fail the gate to the great, prosperous and powerful nation in 2012, the year of 100th birth anniversary of President Kim Il Sung, by giving full play to the mental strength of the people.

Over last decades the DPRK has created things from nothing and consolidated its economic and military power as firm as a rock by mobilizing the strong spirit of the popular masses.

It built a powerful socialist country on debris through the great Chollima upsurge after the war and, after then, brought about the heyday of the WPK era through the vigorous speed campaign at every grand socialist construction site.

It is thanks to the mental power of the Korean people that they had won a great victory in the struggle for defending socialism, heroically bridging over the adversities of the "Arduous March".

The new century has witnessed the construction of large and minor power stations including the Anbyon Youth Power Station, Nyongwon Power Station and Wonsan Youth Power Station, the reconstruction and modernization of leading metallurgical bases, machine-building factories, chemical industry factories and mining bases and many updated light industry factories.

The Namhung Youth Chemical Complex is pushing ahead at the final stage with the gasification project which is of great significance in fertilizer production.

Efforts are being made to wind up the new gasification project at an early date in the Hungnam Fertilizer Complex which has already put its fertilizer production system on modern footing and the successful completion of a new vinalon production process is drawing near in the February 8 Vinalon Complex.

These successes prove that the mental power is, indeed, a powerful means for creating miracles.
