It's hard to keep abreast of the Dear Leader's non-stop dispensing of field guidance, and general looking at things. A quick update on a couple of his latest trips. First:

General Secretary Kim Jong Il gave field guidance to the technologically updated Raknang Disabled Soldiers' Essential Plastic Goods Factory.

He went round the room devoted to the history of the factory, conducted by the manager of the factory. 

Looking at data relating many stories on display at the factory, he recalled with deep emotion the history of loving care shown by President Kim Il Sung for the disabled soldiers. 

The President showed all sorts of loving care for the disabled soldiers, saying they who defended the country at the cost of blood are precious national treasures, Kim Jong Il noted, stressing the need for them to always remember this profound care….

Touring the sites for the production of plastic sheets and foodstuff packing materials and other places of the factory, he learned in detail about the technological updating and production there. 

He expressed great satisfaction over the fact that the factory automated all the production processes to rapidly increase the production and ensure a high level of cultured practice in production and life. He highly appreciated the labor feats of the workers there. 

Next stop, the Phyongsong Synthetic Leather Factory:

Going round a room dedicated to the history of the factory, he looked back with deep emotion on the undying leadership feats of President Kim Il Sung and the shining path covered by the factory under the wise guidance of the party.

Visiting various places of the factory, Kim Jong Il acquainted himself in detail with the production and the technological specifications of equipment.

Looking with keen attention at the processes of producing synthetic leather by way of coating stitched cotton pieces with plastics, he expressed great satisfaction with the production of quality goods. 

In a fast-moving world, some things never change.
