Pyongyang, March 2 (KCNA) -- Leading newspapers carry editorials on March 2, the Tree-Planting Day.

Rodong Sinmun in its editorial calls on all people to make remarkable progress in forest restoration this year, the first one for implementing the new five-year plan, by turning out as one in the spring tree-planting campaign with intense patriotism.

All sectors and units should bring about a decisive turn in forest restoration, an important affair related to the work for making the country more beautiful and for the future of the country, in the period of the new five-year plan in which practical changes and substantial progress should be made, the editorial says, and goes on:

Everyone should devote themselves to the spring tree-planting campaign by embodying Kim Jong Il 's patriotism.

Kim Jong Il 's patriotism, which calls for valuing and taking care of even a single blade of grass or a single tree of the country, is, indeed, mental nutrition that helps train the Korean people as genuine patriots.

All officials, members of the Workers' Party of Korea and other working people should dedicate themselves to tree-planting with pure conscience, cherishing the noble outlooks of Chairman Kim Jong Il , who devoted his all to the country and people, on the country, its people and posterity.

They should turn all mountains of the country into golden and treasure mountains by conducting afforestation in a far-sighted way with such noble outlook on life as living not merely for today but for tomorrow so that the rising generations can benefit from them.

Minju Joson says that to cover the mountains and fields, streets and villages of the country with many trees of good species is an honorable and worthwhile patriotic work for transforming the country into a more beautiful socialist fairyland where the people enjoy happiness. -0-
