In particular, he indicated the tasks and ways for developing the country's sports onto a new high level, including the issue of creating and actively applying the advantageous playing tactics of Korean style, the issue of making sports mass-based and part of daily life so that all the people can enjoy sports and the whole country can be seething with enthusiasm for sports, and the issue of dynamically promoting the work to put sports on a scientific basis.
