New Golden Days of Working People’s Organizations under Leadership of Party
May 5, 2015, was a significant day when a radical turn was brought about in the work of the working people’s organizations.
That day the respected General Secretary
The past 10 years since the establishment of this important guideline on enhancing the militant function and role of the union organizations by improving and intensifying the Party guidance over the work of the working people’s organizations as required by the developing reality were the historic days when the General Secretary attached importance to the work of the working people’s organizations as much as Party work and energetically led it.
In 2016 alone, he saw to it that the meetings of working people’s organizations were held one after another and in his letters to the meetings, he gave instructions which serve as precious guidelines in the work of the youth league, the General Federation of Trade Unions of Korea, the Union of Agricultural Workers of Korea and Women’s Union organizations.
Our young people, who keenly felt his great trust and love, set the position of their life at difficult and labor-consuming posts devoted their pure patriotic sweats.
The General Secretary has directed big efforts to the work of not only the youth league but also trade unions, agricultural workers’ unions and women’s union organizations.
It is the intention of the General Secretary that the working people’s organizations should make a fierce flame of collective competition everywhere by vigorously conducting various forms of mass movement by sectors, regions and units suited to their own characteristics.
True to his noble intention, trade union organizations organized various mass movements including the socialist emulation movement, the mass technical innovation drive and the movement to create model lathes following the example of Lathe No. 26 in conformity with the reality in which the building of a powerful socialist country is being carried on at a new high stage, so that the working class and other trade union members could devote their enthusiasm and wisdom to socialist construction.
In line with the Party’s intention of organizing and conducting mass movements among agricultural workers, UAWK organizations organized various movements including the mass technical innovation drive, high-yield movement, patriotic movement of donating cereals, good conduct campaign conducive to the production of farm machines and thus steadily encouraged the agricultural working people’s enthusiasm for production.
Women’s union organizations briskly conducted socio-political activities including art agitation activities of the women’s union and the women’s union shock brigade activities and the do-good-deeds movementwas waged vigorously among the women’s union members including the silkworm raising campaign, and in recent years, tens of thousands of women’s union members have displayed exemplary deeds in actively advancing into various sectors of the national economy.
With the new heyday of the work of the working people’s organizations unfolded by the General Secretary, our revolutionary ranks have been further strengthened and all the people could adorn proud annals of epochal changes overcoming all difficulties in spirits responding to the call of the Party.
Our people will surely build a powerful state envied by the whole world under the leadership of the great Party Central Committee, further redoubling the spirit of the general advance.
