   Pyongyang, January 3 (KCNA) -- The Korean people are replete with the resolution to implement the tasks set forth by the joint New Year editorial released by Rodong Sinmun, Joson Inmingun and Chongnyon Jonwi.
    Ri Ul Sol, an anti-Japanese revolutionary fighter, told KCNA that the anti-Japanese revolutionary fighters would devote their all energy and knowledge to the implementation of the tasks, saying that the slogan "Glorify this year of the 60th anniversary of the founding of the DPRK as a year of historical turn which will go down in the history of the country!" is one stirring up the hearts of the servicepersons and people of the country.
    A general of the Korean People's Army Kim Sang Ik said that the KPA is the army of the leader and the Party, expressing the will of the entire KPA officers and men to always keep the highly strained posture with the firm anti-imperialist spirit and a high degree of spirit standing against the enemy, to decisively frustrate the reckless military aggressive actions of the enemy and to defend the socialist motherland as firm as an impregnable fortress.
    It is none other than the officials who should hold aloft the banner in the van of the present general offensive. They will concentrate the Party work on the economic construction and improvement of the people's life and ensure effective Party leadership over the administrative and economic activities in line with the requirement of the developing reality, stated Hong Song Nam, chief secretary of the South Hamgyong Provincial Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea.
    Kwak Pom Gi, vice-premier of the Cabinet, said with emphasis: Today, the economy is the front of main efforts in the building of a great, prosperous and powerful nation. I will do my best in the efforts for building a powerful economic country as the officials did in the 1970s when the basic foundation of the Party was laid.
    Minister of Electric Industry Pak Nam Chil, Minister of Metal Industry Kim Sung Hyon and Minister of Agriculture Ri Kyong Sik also manifested their resolution, saying that they would positively modernize the economy on the basis of the up-to-date science and technologies and thus give full play to the superiority and vitality of the self-supporting national economy while constantly increasing the Juche character of the national economy in accordance with the demand of the Songun era with a high degree of the consciousness and honor of being in charge of the nation's economic work.
