In the Democratic People's Republic of Korea the schoolchildren have been provided with knapsack-style bags since 2017.
The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un had long conceived a plan to make good school things, uniforms, shoes and bags at home and provide them to the children.
According to the plan, a bag cloth production process with great capacity was built at the Pyongyang Kim Jong Suk Textile Mill, a large-scale cloth producer of the country, in 2015 and a zipper production process at the Mangyongdae Revolutionary Site Souvenir Factory in 2016, and measures to build a schoolbag factory in every province were taken.
One day in June 2016, Kim Jong Un called officials of the then Central Industrial Art Guidance Bureau (now the Central Industrial Design Administration) and gave instructions on the creation of bag designs.
In December that year, he examined many bag designs sent by the Central Industrial Design Administration and gave a scrupulous guidance to them. And he sent over 190 completed designs to the Pyongyang Bag Factory.
Those designs contributed to the production of various bags suited to the tastes, likings and aesthetic feelings of the schoolchildren.
