Pyongyang, February 24 (KCNA) — The Fifth Congress of the Workers’ Party of Korea was held from November 2 to 13, 1970.
At the congress, President Kim Il Sung reviewed the historic victory, in which the DPRK turned into a powerful socialist industrial state, and other shining successes achieved in all fields of politics, economy, culture and military affairs. And he set forth the tasks for accelerating the three revolutions, ideological, technological and cultural, to bring earlier the complete victory of socialism.
The President advanced the grand task of the Six-Year Plan for the Development of the National Economy (1971-1976).
The fundamental task of the Six-Year Plan was to consolidate and develop the successes in industrialization and advance the technological revolution to a new high stage so as to further consolidate the material and technical foundations of socialism and liberate the working people from hard labour in all sectors of the national economy.
He also clarified in detail the issue of thoroughly accomplishing the three major tasks of the technological revolution to considerably narrow the disparity between heavy and light labour, and between agricultural and industrial work and to free women from the heavy burden of household chores by launching a widespread technical innovation movement in industry, agriculture and all other sectors of the national economy. And he elucidated the issue of steadily developing the work of transforming the whole society on a revolutionary and working-class pattern by giving definite precedence to the ideological revolution.
The Fifth Congress of the WPK was recorded in the history of the WPK as the one which brought about a great victory in industrialization and opened up a bright prospect of achieving a greater victory.
