New Poster Encourages People to Fulfill This Year's Tasks
Pyongyang, January 22 (KCNA) -- A poster titled "Radical Turn in People's Livelihood Improvement!" has been created in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea to arouse the people to the implementation of the tasks set forth by the joint New Year editorial published by leading newspapers of the country.

Depicted in the poster is a lady holding her child in her arms with a broad smile on her face, half buried by overflowing daily necessities, against the background of a well-lighted street.

Looking at the poster, which reflects the implications of the editorial, the people visualize this year to be overbrimmed with their happiness.

The Korean servicepersons and people are striving hard to bring their happiness earlier.

The employees of the Kim Chaek Iron and Steel Complex sent a letter to the working people of all sectors and units throughout the country, calling for a sweeping campaign to bring about in the people's living a radical improvement, unprecedented in the history of the country.

In response to their call they are working as they did in the 1970s, mass-producing consumer goods and harvesting bumper crops, unaffected by the world-wide food crisis.

The updated light industry factories are directing efforts to improving the quality of consumer goods.

All the economic sectors and units are fully providing the light industry factories in time with raw and other materials needed for the production of consumer goods.

The stockbreeding, fish farming and fruit production bases are making redoubled efforts to boost their production.

The construction of dwelling houses for 100,000 families in Pyongyang are progressing apace with those built in Mansudae Street as a model and towns and rural villages have been facelifted to suit the socialist features in the 21st century.
