In the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, the scientific and technological work is firmly oriented to promoting the independence and modernization of the national economy in a sustainable way and resolving the urgent problems arising in developing the economy and improving the people's living standards.
The Pyongyang Han Tok Su University of Light Industry is directing efforts to solving the sci-tech problems arising in revitalizing the production and improving the technical processes at the regional-industry factories.
All the teachers and researchers of the university set a high goal to present their own sci-tech successes and creations and introduce them into the regional-industry factories under construction according to the regional development policy of the Workers' Party of Korea.
The university is concentrating research forces on improving the quality of products such as the extension of the storage period of wheat paste, increasing their varieties and establishing the processes for producing foodstuffs peculiar to the regions at the regional-industry factories.
The Biomedicine Institute under the Academy of Medical Science set it as the main goal to strengthen the bionic foundation and is endeavouring to make valuable research findings including the development of diagnostic reagents by advanced test system.
Now the institute is solving sci-tech problems arising in industrializing the production of preventive medicines which are of great significance in the healthcare practice by boldly entrusting young researchers with important research projects and making close cooperation between research teams.
The Poultry Biology Institute under the Academy of Poultry Science is also making steady efforts to present significant research findings conducive to the development of poultry farming of the country.
The institute is intensifying the researches for rearing good breeds of poultry with high meat productivity and egg-laying rate while considerably reducing the feed consumption unit, further increasing the varieties of poultry that suit the actual conditions of our country and have high economic effectiveness and introducing them into reality.
As said above, officials and researchers in the field of scientific research are working harder to make realistic research findings conducive to developing the national economy and improving the people's living, and their efforts will bear a good fruition.
