Kim Jong Il Inspects 2.8 Vinalon Complex
Pyongyang, August 2 (KCNA) -- General Secretary Kim Jong Il provided field guidance to the February 8 Vinalon Complex making a steady boost in production.

The party members and other working people of the complex completed in a brief span of time the construction of major objects including the project for the construction of a 75 ton circulating fluidized bed boiler and intensified the mass technical innovation movement, remarkably improving the quality of vinalon cotton.

After being briefed on the complex before its large long-term design, he went round various places of the complex including the vertical spinning shop and the converting site to learn in detail about production there.

He expressed great satisfaction over the fact that the workers of the complex successfully completed in a matter of a few months the huge project for the capacity expansion which would have taken a few years at ordinary pace.

Praising the officials, workers and technicians for having sharply boosted the vinalon production and significantly improved the quality of vinalon cotton through a high-pitched drive, he highly appreciated the feats they performed by working hard for the prosperity of the country and the happiness of the people.

The February 8 Vinalon Complex has a very important duty and role to perform as it is directly related to the people's living, he said, setting forth important tasks before it.

He stressed that the most important task facing the complex is to keep the production going at a high rate and, at the same time, continue pushing forward the construction of objects for improving the quality of products and scientific and technological updating.

In order to keep the production going at a high rate at the complex it is necessary to sufficiently supply electricity, anthracite and raw and other materials in good time and operate equipment in full capacity through the better management of equipment and technical control, he noted, and continued:

It is necessary for the complex to wage an uninterrupted dynamic drive to increase the varieties of chemical products needed for the nation's economic development and the people's living on the basis of a solid material and technological foundation.

He unraveled knotty problems arising in developing the complex under a long-term plan, underscoring the need to intensify the scientific researches into the production of varieties of chemical products out of vinalon intermediate products and, at the same time, build new modern closed carbide electrical furnaces and compounding towers and round off the aromatic compound production process and the synthetic fuel production process for the purpose of strengthening the Juche character of the chemical industry.

Noting that the February 8 Vinalon Complex is a historic complex closely associated with the great efforts exerted by President Kim Il Sung to provide the Korean people with better living conditions, he expressed expectation and conviction that the workers of the complex would wage a dynamic drive for increased production by devoting all their wisdom and enthusiasm and thus fully demonstrate its might as a model one of the Juche industry.

He was accompanied by Kwak Pom Gi, chief secretary of the South Hamgyong Provincial Committee of the WPK, Jang Song Thaek, vice-chairman of the NDC of the DPRK and department director of the WPK Central Committee, Kim Ki Nam, secretary of the C.C., the WPK, and Kim Kyong Hui, Hong Sok Hyong and Thae Jong Su, department directors of the C.C., the WPK.
