A new world of blooming socialist civilization, which people imagined as an ideal, is now unfolding in the DPRK on the road of onward march for the overall rejuvenation and development of Korean-style socialism.
According to the noble intention of the Workers' Party of Korea to develop regional areas as much as the capital and enable their people to enjoy a new civilization, state measures have been taken one after another to rapidly diffuse and transfer the excellent and advanced culture of the capital to the provinces.
The national sci-tech diffusion network centred on the Sci-Tech Complex, a grand temple of all-people learning, has been expanded constantly to spur the development of civilization.
Since its inauguration, a total of more than 4.5 million people have visited the complex for perusal so far, with the users of its website totalling over 90 million and the data they accessed totalling at least 550 million pieces.
Various events for guiding the development of new culture and civilization of Korean style were arranged one after another on a nationwide scale, such as sci-tech festivals, exhibitions of industrial designs, light industrial goods and garments, cooking festivals, symposiums on aesthetics and fine art exhibitions. This constituted an effective measure to simultaneously develop culture in all sectors and regions.
In accordance with the WPK’s grandiose plan to turn all the rural areas across the country into cultured socialist rural communities, tens of thousands of families moved into new houses in well over 100 cities and counties across the country last year, the third year in implementing the Party’s new rural revolution programme.
As it is becoming customary for owners of new houses to tend the fruit trees, flowering shrubs and ground cover planted in and around their houses in all sincerity, more than 210 neighbourhood units became model neighbourhood units of socialist cultured way of life in the countryside last year.
Meanwhile, the number of users of Hwanggumyolmae (golden fruit), a website called a "close companion of scientific farming" and "guide to high yield", has increased markedly, and the agricultural workers have widened the horizons of their knowledge and got more enthusiastic about scientific farming as advanced science and technology have been disseminated rapidly.
Larger numbers of farms have put production guidance and business activities on a scientific and IT basis at a higher level by introducing latest information technology and information and communications means into agricultural production, and agricultural workers do farming cheerfully with machines in all parts of the country.
The differences are decreasing in educational level between the capital and the provinces and between cities and rural areas.
In the recent years, the processing manuals for producing school uniforms have been issued to all parts of the country every year to ensure students in both urban and rural areas are supplied with tailored new uniforms without distinction. And state measures have been taken to increase the variety and raise the quality of dairy products for children and thereby all children across the country are being supplied with quality dairy products.
Measures have also been taken to develop the food culture throughout the country. Every regional area is encouraged to develop and improve local specialities to suit their specific features and common knowledge about cooking has widely been disseminated so that everyone can learn cooking techniques and apply them to daily dietary life.
Riding clubs, ski runs, hot spring resorts, playgrounds and parks have been built in regional areas, enlivening the whole country with optimistic leisure activities.
New Year celebrations, people's art festivals held in Pyongyang on the occasions of the significant February and April holidays, dazzling firework displays decorating the nocturnal sky on the holidays and other events have inspired the whole country to create and enjoy new culture and civilization.
The new era of efflorescing socialist civilization, which is being ushered in according to the intention of the Party Central Committee, has brought about radical changes in the local people’s way of life, view of aesthetics and political awareness and thereby everyone becomes a powerful builder of socialism with a high level of cultural attainments.
