Producer of ‘poets’

All employees of the Nampho Municipal School Uniform Factory including manageress, needle workers and repairers write poems at their leisure.

They eagerly try to fully describe their pride in and joy from tailoring school uniforms amid the concern of the country in their writings.

“All the poems posted on that board in the factory compound are the brainchild of employees,” said Manageress Jo Un Gyong, adding that the place of worthwhile work made them “poets”.

“I was really impressed by the slogan ‘Love the future!’ which was inscribed in the building when I entered the newly-built factory. Seeing the slogan, I was greatly inspired by the favour of the Party which puts forward children as the king of the country and spares nothing for them,” said needle worker Kim Mi Gyong as she recalled the motive for writing the poem “Love the future”.

Another needle worker Son Jong Ok voiced her feeling through her poem “The prettiest clothes” that school uniforms permeated with affection and sincerity are produced on a streamlined basis as the prettiest clothes in the world.

Other employees wrote so many impressive poems including “The hands of me, a needle worker”, “Women at the school uniform factory”, “My workplace”, “Buzzing sound of my machine is good to hear”, “I write a poem” and “Innovation is made”.

Other poems tell that the factory is frequented by many officials and experts in the relevant sector who strive to improve the quality of school uniforms and that the employees have the special pride in decorating cute children with new clothes.

“In fact, our employees do not have natural aptitude and talents for literature. They witness with their own eyes the great love the Party shows for the production of school uniforms and only try to reflect their feelings in the poems,” said the manageress.

Kim Mi Gyong was highly appreciated at a national lyric poem prize contest in celebration of the 76th founding of the DPRK last year by presenting the lyric poem “Happiness of a needle worker”. The poem reflects the emotion she felt when she saw off the trucks carrying school uniforms she made with much care.

The noticeboard frequently carrying the poetical works along with good news telling innovation in production is a great help to enhancing the enthusiasm for increasing production among employees.

“All of us are now ‘poets’ at an honourable workplace for the children,” said Manageress Jo Un Gyong.
