He went round the revolutionary museum.
He said that the brilliant history of the Academy of Defence Sciences is associated with the noble life and immortal patriotic exploits of President Kim Il Sung and Chairman Kim Jong Il who organized the country’s first ordnance science institute in the days of the hard-fought war to proclaim the establishment of Juche-oriented defence science, developed it into a unified defence science institute capable of carrying out our Party’s policy on defence science most accurately in the 1960s and provided an eternal foundation for the development of defence science with their far-sighted wisdom and outstanding leadership.
It is the eternal truth that can never change or be decolorized that the development and success of the Korean revolution would be unthinkable without the top-priority bolstering up of the defence capabilities, he said, calling on the defence scientists to add brilliance to their legendary name and history of having consolidated the cornerstone of the Republic under the leadership of the Party by always remembering the supreme responsibility and duty they assumed for the revolution and future and continuously putting indomitable spurs to carrying out the Party’s strategy for developing national defence.
