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

   Pyongyang, June 12 (KCNA) -- General Secretary Kim Jong Il inspected a foodstuff factory of KPA Unit 534.
    He went round the monument to the on-the-spot instructions given by President Kim Il Sung and the room devoted to the history of the factory, conducted by its leading officials.
    He highly praised the party members and other working people of the factory for their achievements in the past, saying that they have devoted themselves to producing foodstuff for the army, bearing deep in mind the on-the-spot instructions given by the President, and thus greatly contributed to increasing the defence capability.
    Then he acquainted himself in detail with the technical equipment and production at the factory, going round its production processes including the newly built workshop.
    Seeing the working places kept neat and tidy and various kinds of foodstuffs being churned out from the streamlined production process, he expressed great satisfaction over the fact that the workers of the factory have put its operation on a modern and scientific basis and kept its production going at a high rate by giving full play to the revolutionary soldier spirit.
    Seeing the working places where cultured practices in production and life are on a high level and the compound of the factory which looks like a park, he praised its employees for having successfully built its interior and exterior with warm patriotism and love for the factory.
    He put forward important tasks which would serve as guidelines for managing and operating the factory.
    It is a manifestation of the spirit of loving the soldiers that the officials, workers and technicians of the factory are devoting all their wisdom and enthusiasm to the work to increase the supply of better foodstuffs to the soldiers, he noted, underscoring the need to pay primary attention to keeping the production going at a high rate.
    He said that this factory should thoroughly ensure the sanitary and cultural environment as it produces foodstuffs for the soldiers and indicated ways to do so.
    He met the officials and scientists who studied and developed efficacious bio-agricultural chemicals by pooling efforts with the workers of the factory and acquainted himself with their researches.
    He congratulated the scientists and technologists of the research group for having studied and developed highly efficacious Korean-style bio-agricultural chemicals free from pollution through painstaking inquiry and tireless efforts and highly appreciated their patriotism.
    Only when science and technology are developed is it possible to bolster the national power and achieve the prosperity of the country and the nation, he noted, urging the scientists to become genuine scientists serving their people and country.
    He expressed the expectation and conviction that the workers of the factory would make steady progress in the production and construction and thus creditably perform their honorable mission and duty.
    He was accompanied by KPA Generals Hyon Chol Hae and Ri Myong Su.
