Shining Achievements Made by Three-Revolution Red Flag Movement

    Pyongyang, February 18 (KCNA) -- The dynamic three-revolution red flag movement, an all-people movement in the DPRK, has registered big achievements in the three revolutions--ideological, technical and cultural. This movement initiated in November Juche 64 (1975) has involved all fields and units, modeling all members of the society on the Juche idea.
    In this course more than 25,400 units won the title of the three-revolution red flag and more than 2.4 million workers, farmers and intellectuals have become three-revolution standard-bearers.
    Through the intensified ideological revolution all the people have grown to be Songun revolutionary comrades and ideologically strong persons who share their idea, intention and destiny with the leader.
    Effective ideological education has been conducted at many units including the Komdok Mining Complex and the Ryongsong Machine Complex. As a result, the three-revolution standard-bearers and other people are making their lives worthwhile on the sacred road of devotedly safeguarding the leader.
    An energetic drive has been under way to learn from the spiritual world of the unassuming heroes and persons of distinguished services of the old generation who devoted themselves to the prosperity of the country. This resulted in the emergence of more than 21,300 unassuming men of distinguished service and those who displayed the beautiful deeds of helping and leading each other forward. The single-mindedly united DPRK has turned into a big harmonious family.
    Dynamic progress made in the technical revolution has helped increase the economic self-reliance of the country. Thanks to the vigorous mass technical renovation the number of scientific and technical innovation proposals grew seven times as of February 2006 as compared with that in Juche 64 (1975).
    The work to place the national economy on a Juche basis has been actively pushed forward as evidenced by the solution of raw material, fuel and power problems by use of the locally available resources and the industrial inter-sector structures have been further perfected.
    The scientists and technicians of the country successfully launched satellite "Kwangmyongsong 1", manufactured a scanning tunneling microscope and registered many other successes in latest scientific researches, thereby powerfully demonstrating the scientific and technological potential of the DPRK that has reached the world's level. The modernization of the national economy has been put on a higher stage. Thousands of technical innovation proposals have been introduced into the field of machine industry over the last decade.
    Industrialization and modernization of agriculture have been accelerated to carry out the policy of the Workers' Party of Korea for rural technical revolution. In this course, there have emerged many exemplary units in the comprehensive mechanization of agriculture including the Migok Co-op Farm and the Wangjaesan Co-op Farm and a solid foundation has been laid for the development of agriculture. A fresh turn has been brought about in the cultural revolution, too. At least 1.1 million more technicians and specialists have been trained thanks to the higher educational system and the study-while-working system, bringing the nation's number of intellectuals to more than 2.1 million.
    The number of holders of academic degrees has increased 25 times as compared with that in Juche 64 (1975). 76.5 percent of them are young scientists. And most of them became doctors and masters in the worthwhile period of the Three-Revolution Red Flag Movement.
    A lot of monumental masterpieces such as multi-part feature film "The Nation and Destiny" and the grand gymnastic and artistic performance "Arirang" were created in the filed of literature and arts and the policy for popularizing the sports has also been successfully implemented.
    Thanks to the dynamic movement to introduce the revolutionary soldier culture spectacular sceneries of socialism appeared in different parts of the country and the appearance of the streets, villages and worksites has changed beyond recognition. The Korean people have grown stronger in their confidence in the course of the historic Three-Revolution Red Flag Movement as they have grasped the truth that they can bring earlier the day of the appearance of a great prosperous powerful nation of Juche when they meet the requirements of Juche in ideology, technology and culture true to the Songun revolutionary leadership of Kim Jong Il.
