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, guided the shipbuilding on the spot.
He was accompanied by Jo Yong Won, Pak Jong Chon, Ri Il Hwan, Kim Jae Ryong and Jo Chun Ryong, senior officials of the WPK Central Committee, and Admiral Kim Myong Sik, commander of the Navy of the Korean People’s Army.
Going round various production lines and a shipbuilding site, the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un learned in detail about the recent modernization of shipbuilding process.
Saying that top priority should be given to building up the material and technical foundation of the overall shipbuilding industry and radically raising the level of modernization in order to correctly implement the Party’s policies of munitions industry and shipbuilding industry and that it is important to take strong additional state measures to this end, he clarified again the direction of revolutionary struggle to open up a new period of development of the shipbuilding industry.
Repeatedly saying that the strengthening of naval force is the most important matter in firmly defending the maritime sovereignty of the country and stepping up the war preparedness at present, he reiterated that to modernize the shipbuilding industry as required by the new century is an important guarantee and prerequisite for implementing the WPK’s line on building the national defences and the economy.
He underscored the need to increase the state investment and intensify the guidance based on policy and technology so that the immediate tasks and long-term plans for laying the foundation for the development of the shipbuilding industry decided and assigned by the Eighth Party Congress can be pushed forward as scheduled on the basis of scientific calculation.
