It is encouraging to see the employees of the factory achieving shining successes in the responsible production campaign for accomplishing the WPK's cause of building a powerful army by turning all out for the campaign with the single mind of patriotism after ideologically accepting the intention of the WPK Central Committee that set the production of strategic missile TELs as the top priority for bolstering up the national defence capabilities, he said, adding that the cause of our Party is invincible thanks to the workers in the munitions industry, who are full of patriotic enthusiasm and regard it as their nature to remain unconditionally and absolutely loyal to the Party and the revolution, like the workers of the factory.

Referring to the importance of producing various TELs for tactical and strategic weapons in ceaselessly bolstering the nuclear war deterrent of the country and the operational demand of our army, he specified the immediate plan for production of varieties of TELs, long-term production plan and task of production capacity expansion.

Underlining the need for the factory to make signal successes continuously in the production to radically modernize our army, he took an important measure for expanding the production capacity of the factory.

Saying that the important factor governing the successful production is just the idea and faith of those involved in production, he urged the factory to consistently intensify the ideological education to instill into its employees the fighting spirit displayed by the workers of Kunja-ri in the 1950s and the noble sense of duty that they are standing in the forefront for strengthening the national defence capabilities, thus raise their mental power to the maximum and focus all manpower and potentialities on the dynamic campaign for implementing the munitions industry policy of the Party.

Officials, workers and technicians of the factory made a firm pledge to remain boundlessly loyal to the sacred mission they assumed before the revolution by going all out again for carrying out the TEL production plan with the spirit and mettle befitting the heroic working class in the munitions industry, cherishing deep in their minds the great trust of the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un who has always placed their factory at the center of his mind, valued and prioritized it most and entitled them to stand in the van of the strenuous campaign for building the strongest national defence capabilities.
