DPRK Full of Confidence in Victory

Korean Central News Agency of DPRK via Korea News Service (KNS)

    Pyongyang, January 4 (KCNA) -- All the people of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea have greeted the New Year Juche 96(2007) full of confidence in victory. They, with great optimism, are all out in response to the dynamic call "Usher in a great heyday of Songun Korea full of confidence in victory!" set forth in the joint New Year editorial of Rodong Sinmun, Joson Inmingun and Chongnyon Jonwi. Last year they keenly experienced that the army and people of the DPRK were entirely right when they had invariably followed the road of Songun over the past 10-odd years in the face of the severest trials and came to have a firm belief that they can certainly build a great, prosperous and powerful nation in near future.
    Under the wise leadership of Kim Jong Il, the Korean people have augmented the strength of the nation remarkably and secured a springboard for a fresh leap forward in all sectors of the socialist economic construction. They are effecting miracles and innovations every day with a resolution to make a signal success in the offensive campaign for building an economic power this year again.
    Surging are the enthusiasm of officials and working people in the people's committees of all levels and the fields of light industry and public service who are positively responding to the call of the Party for directing the primary effort to improving the standard of the people's living as the main task in the present general march. The editorial says that the people should, as in the past, keep up farming as the great foundation of the country and make an epoch-making advance in solving the problem of food for them.
    In response to the call, the agricultural workers, with a firm determination to increase the grain production this year, are striving hard to acquire new arable land and raise the fertility of soil while energetically carrying on the water-way project of Miru Plain to be converted into a granary.
    With responsibility for a pilot of the national economy, the workers in the field of the electric power industry including the Pyongyang Thermal-power Complex are brilliantly carrying out their daily assignments from the beginning of the year. The workers of the Musan Mine Complex, who had succeeded in blasting 100,000 cubic meters of earth on the first day of the year to make a breakthrough in turning out large quantities of concentrated iron ore, are making every effort to hit the production target for the first month of the year.
    Labor achievements have been reported from the Songjin Steel Complex, the Ryongsong Machinery Complex and other industrial establishments.
