economy

Practising economy arises as an urgent matter as the economy develops.

In order for economy to produce a great result in the development of the state and society, it should be made uninterruptedly as a drive involving the entire country and the whole society, not by a certain sector at a certain time.

The Workers’ Party of Korea puts forward economy as one of its important policy issues.

It makes sure that the importance and utility of economy and the achievements and experience gained in the course of economy are actively introduced through mass media and that all sectors and units practise economy.

Scientific research has been conducted actively to economize on raw and other materials.

There has been established a habit of saving even anything trivial as much as possible out of a sense of patriotism.

A mobile brigade of the Pyongyang Construction Commission installed in all its vehicles the fuel economizers it made by itself to save a large amount of fuel every month. Such effort was followed by the saving of time by shortening the time of maintenance and that of lubricant and materials.

During the overhaul of a kiln, the Sinwon Cement Factory came to a scientific conclusion that if a blower was separately installed in the middle part of the kiln, it would make it possible to increase the actual yield over the past and save much coal and therefore the factory turned the overhaul into technical transformation to markedly increase its productivity.

Everyone is active in economy with great interest in it, for example making maximum economy in the use of tap water at workplaces and homes and saving even a gram of fuel.

The social habit of economy is one of the factors that increase the wealth of the country and further hasten economic construction.
