Campaign to Make All the People Well Versed in Science and Technology
Now in Korea the effort to improve contents, methods, environments and quality of education is making fresh progress in keeping with the enforcement of the universal 12-year free compulsory education system, and the state investment into the sector of higher education is on the increase. Especially, the work to make all the people well versed in science and technology is well under way. Last year the Sci-tech Complex was erected; the sci-tech diffusion rooms were or are arranged at all factories, industrial establishments and cooperative farms, and working people are enrolled on distance learning courses.
The supreme leader Kim Jong Un suggested the grand plan of making all the people well versed in science and technology and is translating it into reality. It is a firm will of the leader to accelerate the building of a powerful socialist nation and make the Korean people the most civilized nation by developing the country into a talented nation. Whenever he gives his energetic field guidance to factories, enterprises and cooperative farms, he first drops in at sci-tech dissemination rooms to acquaint himself in detail about its operation and tells them the direction and ways to improve the workers’ level of scientific and technological attainments and technical skills. The Sci-tech Complex, the hub of disseminating advanced science and technology across the country, was completed thanks to the initiative and leadership of the leader. Thanks to the frenzy for sci-tech achievements scores of workers at the Hwanghae Iron and Steel Complex acquired technical qualifications at the same time after learning at college, and there are increasing numbers of “worker doctors” and “worker innovators.”
