10 days have passed since the operation of the greatest emergency anti-epidemic system to cope with the anti-epidemic crisis in the DPRK.

In response to the idea and spirit of the meeting and consultative meetings of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea, all the sectors and units of the national economy have launched a powerful offensive to win a victory in both the anti-epidemic campaign and the implementation of the national economic plan for this year.

Meticulous plans were mapped out and powerful practical measures taken to carry on the production and construction despite the blockade and tight closure of every region and every unit.

Workers of the Kim Chaek Iron and Steel Complex overfulfilled their pig iron and steel production plans for 10 days after the operation of the greatest emergency anti-epidemic system. Steel workers in the field of metallurgical industry are spending every minute and second with struggle and feats.

Workers in the field of chemical industry have turned out with the extraordinary strenuous efforts. The February 8 Vinalon Complex and the Hungnam Fertilizer Complex have pushed ahead with the chemical goods production as planned while making close the relations between the processes though every production unit has been tightly closed, increasing the nitrogen fertilizer production to 105 percent.

The hydraulic and thermal power producers across the country have displayed their devotion to produce millions of kilowatts of electricity per hour as against the same period of the past.

Colliers of the Pukchang Area Youth Coal-Mining Complex and the Kujang Area Coal-Mining Complex have produced hundreds of tons of coal respectively for 10 days. The actual results of heading excavation and preliminary tunnellings were expanded more than planned on the coalfields across the country and hundreds of reserve coal pits secured at the Ministry of Coal Industry.

The Ministry of Railways has carried out its important freight schedule. The transportation corps men in the field of railway transport are powerfully leading the all-people grand march of overcoming the difficulties. Workers in the field of machine-building industry have brought about an upsurge in the production of the planned equipment and accessories by dint of self-reliance and indefatigability.

The flames of collective innovations in the field of basic industries gave a vigour to the whole of the national economy including agriculture, construction, building-materials industry and light industry.
