Pyongyang, August 22 (KCNA) -- Rodong Sinmun on Thursday says in an editorial that the historic Tenth Plenary Meeting of the Eighth Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea called upon officials to become pioneers of good virtues and traits.
Herein lies the noble intention of the Party Central Committee to make officials in charge of each field and unit in socialist construction possess lofty and beautiful traits and thoroughly apply them in their work and lives, and thus make the whole society brim over with virtue and affection and redouble the spirit of advance toward ideal society on the strength of it, the editorial says, and goes on:
Good virtues and traits are our state's strategic resource compared with any financial resources.
It is the path of development peculiar to the DPRK to have won victory after victory with the struggle of all the people who firmly united with morality and sense of obligation in the same ideas and purpose.
The Korean people have overcome unexpected and pressing crises and difficulties lying in the way of advance by dint of the great power of noble humanity and moral ethics.
They have made a vigorous advance in socialist construction while taking warm care of those in pain, giving their arm to those who feels inconvenience and leading those lagging behind under the uplifted collective slogan of "One for all and all for one!"
The flames of creating examples, making innovations and performing feats are now being kindled at every field and unit. The officials should become cores and pillars in constantly ushering in a new phase of the vibrant state development by giving further momentum to such a social atmosphere.
All officials should prepare themselves to be the pioneers of good virtues and traits, the inexhaustible strength of our own style socialism, and thus give fuller play to the absolute advantages peculiar to our state, which is growing stronger by sharing affections and pooling efforts. -0-
