In response to the call, they have launched efforts to bring about a greater victory this year in the spirit of having made tremendous achievements last year by dint of indomitable spiritual strength.

The service members who have created "Huichon speed", a new Chollima speed, in the construction of the Huichon Power Station, have worked hard in the cold to complete concrete tamping within a year to work a miracle in the history of dam construction, with the might of revolutionary soldier spirit.

The builders of Ryesonggang Youth Power Station No. 2 have fully displayed the revolutionary spirit of self-reliance and hard working under the slogan "When the Party is determined, we can do anything!" As a result, the project is near completion now.

The rolling, ferroalloy and other shops of the Chollima Steel Complex have recorded remarkable successes every day in steel production.

The workers of the Kim Jong Thae Electric Locomotive Complex have produced various kinds of forgings and materials needed for manufacture and repair of locomotives. They, with the help of technicians, have topped their daily assignments 120 percent.

The sectors of light industry and agriculture, major fronts of the efforts for improving the people's living standard, are seething with an upswing in production and farming preparations to let the people really enjoy benefits from socialism.

The spiritual strength highly displayed among the Korean servicemen and people is unthinkable without General Secretary Kim Jong Il's strong will and spirit.

He kindled the flame of a new, great revolutionary upsurge and stirred up their mental power with his energetic and intensive field guidance over many units throughout the country last year. This year, too, in the teeth of bitter cold in January, he has continued the field guidance tour from the beginning of the year to inspire all the servicepersons and civilians in the building of a thriving nation.
