The movement plays an important role in developing the light industry and satisfactorily meeting the increasing public demand for those goods.

This movement is advantageous in that it helps make the most effective use of idle workforce, materials and resources without big state investment for markedly increasing both varieties and quantity of consumer goods and thus meet the steadily growing public need for them.

An editorial of Rodong Sinmun Thursday calls upon all the officials and other working people to wage a dynamic campaign for producing August 3 consumer goods with the will to thoroughly implement the last instructions of Kim Jong Il who dedicated all his life to significantly improving the people's living standard. It goes on:

It is necessary to launch a drive to boost the production of quality consumer goods with ardent patriotism.

It is essential to produce even a single thing in best quality and turn out everything to be liked by people.

It is necessary to increase the production of quality grass, fiber, plastic goods and ornaments required by people.

Let us produce August 3 consumer goods in a nation-wide movement to supply more and better quality consumer goods for the people, concludes the editorial.
