New Source of Pleasure
The managers and workers of the Pyongyang Cosmetics Factory have got another source of pleasure in their life recently. It is to learn as much latest information on the job as students. Even those middle-aged women say that they feel their youthful vigour revive when they set themselves to learning sessions. Their competitive spirit of learning is no less high than the maiden girls; they delve into problems asking questions persistently. When the sci-tech diffusion room was laid in the factory where they could attend courses given by the distance learning college, the enthusiasm for learning soared among the workers as they could study to their heart’s content while on the job.
Until a few years ago, the factory relied on some technicians alone in the work of improving the quality of products. Moreover, there was an inclination to solve baffling problems by referring them to researchers at relevant research institutes.
This time the factory decided to conduct a dynamic campaign to disseminate science and technology to the workers true to the policy of the Workers’ Party of Korea on science and technology. So it laid the sci-tech diffusion room in a short span of time, providing all material and technical foundations for receiving lectures of the Distance Learning College of the Kim Chaek University of Technology. From that time on, workers frequent the room, and the number of students is on the increase. They say the factory will produce popular and excellent cosmetics in the near future.
