One day in January 2015, the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un visited the Ryuwon Footwear Factory.

He appreciated that the factory made great achievements in implementing the Workers' Party of Korea's policy on realizing the diversification and multi-coloring in the footwear production. He also acquainted himself with the development of new products at the factory.

Saying that all consumer goods are directly related to the people's living, he added that to fully supply quality consumer goods is not merely an economic and technical affair but an important matter of valuing and defending our own things and demonstrating the advantages of our social system.

He stressed the need for industrial establishments to put production on a normal footing and steadily improve the quality of products so that the people can benefit from them, not content with the production and display of samples.

His instructions clearly indicate the criteria of thinking and practice of officials who are directly responsible for improving the people's standard of living. -0-
