Kim Jong Un Provides Field Guidance to Bio-technical Institute under KPA Unit

Pyongyang, June 6 (KCNA) -- Supreme Commander of the Korean People's Army Kim Jong Un, first secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and first chairman of the DPRK National Defence Commission, provided field guidance to the Pyongyang Bio-technical Institute under KPA Unit 810.

Kim Jong Un said, visiting the institute, he missed very much leader Kim Jong Il who personally provided the scientists of the relevant field with subject of research in October 2003 so that they might successfully study and develop new bio-insecticides, personally examined the bio-insecticides produced on an experimental basis in June 2008 and instructed them to realize the industrialization of their production.

He said he came to the institute as he was very pleased to receive the report that KPA Unit 810 successfully spruced up the institute as intended by the Party, studied and developed new insecticides of Korean style by giving play to the wisdom of its scientists and laid a foundation for putting their industrial production on normal footing.

Going round various places of the institute, he learnt in detail about its research and production of bio-insecticides.

He appreciated the institute's study and development of highly efficient bio-insecticides representing the 21st century urgently needed for farming, stock-breeding, pomiculture, horticulture and afforestation and not harmful to human body, soil and ecological environment as a praiseworthy success.

The bio-insecticides being produced by the institute are capable of killing almost 100 percent of 80 odd species of harmful insects including various ticks known to be hard to eliminate and they have higher efficacy and economic efficiency when they are mixed with agrochemicals, he said.

He gave important instructions to remarkably develop scientific research and increase production in the institute including the issue of doubling its present production and firmly consolidating its material and technical foundation so that it can satisfy the nation's demand under a long-term plan and the issue of satisfactorily supplying raw and other materials and electric power necessary for the production. He took benevolent measures to do so.

Saying that the scientists of the institute are showing in practice how to implement the behests of Kim Jong Il, he said he is very pleased to meet such patriots as them who are taking the road of carrying out the behests of Kim Jong Il, the one for scientific research, no matter whether their efforts are recognized or not.

Pointing out that the achievements made by the institute constitute an auspicious event which deserves the whole country's congratulations, he underscored the need to widely introduce them so that the whole country may learn from them and the flames of the scientific and technological drive rage more furiously.

He said he would like to carry on his back the scientists of the institute who presented an excellent gift to the 70th anniversary of the founding of the Workers' Party of Korea, prompted by their single desire to become true scientists serving the homeland and its people, and that he felt the urge to give them everything in this world.

He proposed highly praising the officials and scientists who made positive contributions to the development of bio-insecticides and industrialization of their production and invited them to the October 10 celebrations as special guests.

He had a photo session with officials, scientists and employees of the Pyongyang Biotechnical Institute.
