Kim Jong Un, general secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and president of the State Affairs of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, gave field guidance to the Ryongsong Machine Complex on November 26.

The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un was accompanied by Kim Tok Hun, Ri Il Hwan, O Su Yong, Kim Yo Jong and Hyon Song Wol.

He was guided by Ri Kyong Il, manager of the Ryongsong Machine Complex, and Jon In Chol, chief secretary of the complex Party committee.

With a single mind to repay with loyalty the great trust and expectations of the Party Central Committee which entrusted the production of custom-built equipment which is of great significance in the national economic development, the workers of complex are pushing ahead with the production of high-performance large compressors at the final stage by striving to implement the resolutions of the Sixth Plenary Meeting of the Eighth Party Central Committee.

Kim Jong Un looked round large compressors, the products of the revolutionary spirit of self-reliance and fortitude displayed by the workers of Ryongsong and their mass technological innovation, true to the idea of self-support set forth by the Party.

He expressed great satisfaction over the fact that the workers, scientists and technicians of the complex further doubled their confidence in their own strength and sci-tech abilities and dealt a heavy blow to defeatism and mysticism about technology through the production of the major custom-built equipment which would contribute to making our economy Juche-oriented.

Highly appreciating the spirit of the complex, a powerful enterprise, and its heroic tradition of devotedly implementing the Party's policies, he said that the whole country should learn from the spirit of advance and fighting mettle mounting in Ryongsong.

He indicated the orientation and ways for bringing the machine-building industry, which should lead and pull the overall economic sector in successfully fulfilling the five-year plan for national economic development, to the world level as early as possible, and set forth in detail important tasks facing the complex which would play a pivotal role in implementing them.

He expressed great expectation that the workers of Ryongsong, who have upheld our Party, our state and our system with great revolutionary upsurge in the grim annals of the revolution, would lead the overall development of socialist construction by creating the spirit of the new era, the Chollima spirit of the new era.

Upon receiving the warm love and trust shown by him, the officials and workers of the complex made a firm pledge to successfully finish the production of major custom-built equipment planned for this year by conducting a dynamic drive for creation and technology full of loyalty and patriotism and to make a report of victory to the Ninth Plenary Meeting of the Eighth Central Committee of the WPK.
