Pyongyang, December 13 (KCNA) -- The Korean people will spur the drive for pushing back the frontiers of latest science and technology under the leadership of Kim Jong Il to make a leaping progress toward the high eminence of prosperity and bring earlier the rosy future of the country and the nation.

Rodong Sinmun Tuesday says this in a bylined article.

The drive, initiated by the Workers' Party of Korea, is Korean-style strategy of development to hold supremacy in everything in the shortest period by jumping in a bold way over the development phases covered by humankind and make steady progress from the latest science to the cutting-edge science, the article notes, and goes on:

This drive calls for setting a target high and attaining it at a breath to make the world look up to Kim Il Sung's Korea.

To push back the frontiers of latest science and technology is the true way for defending the sovereignty and dignity of the country and nation, a shortcut to prosperity and a key to frustrating the imperialists' scientific and technological blockade and emerging the final victor.

Everything in the world may be blockaded, but no one can repress the strong consequence of the Korean nation to go ahead of the world and its resourceful brain.

The drive to push back the frontiers of latest science and technology in the DPRK serves as a stubborn offensive propelled by dint of great mental power and a scientific and prospective undertaking whereby an example is set in knowledge-based industry and steadily expanded. It is also a powerful scientific and technological movement conducted in reliance on the contingent of talents.

The Korean people will not fall back even a step from this drive under any storm and stress but bring earlier the new spring of prosperity through it.
