The General Secretary said that today when our revolution has entered an important stage of laying a foundation for the overall development of socialist construction while squarely overcoming trials and challenges in all fields, whether we translate the fighting programme set forth at the 8th Party Congress into brilliant reality or not depends on the fighting efficiency, activity and leadership art of the Party organizations in relevant regions and units.

Party life, the main function of the Party organizational departments, is important in enhancing the role of the Party organizations, he added.

He noted that the Party life guidance is the basis of the Party activities and the system of guiding the Party life of officials and Party members through the Party life guidance sections of organizational departments of Party committees at all levels is the main guidance line of the Party Central Committee for mobilizing the whole Party and enhancing the Party's leadership and fighting efficiency.

Saying that the Party life guidance sections of the Party organizational departments can be said to play the role of blood vessel and nerve gland firmly linking the Party organizations with the Party Central Committee as an organism, he stressed that the strengthening of the basic organizations and the unity of the whole Party by and large depend on the role of the Party life guidance sections since the Party Central Committee's revolutionary policies on the Party organizations' activities and the Party members' life are conveyed and assigned to the Party organizations through the Party life guidance sections and the results of overall activities of the Party organizations at all levels are concentrated on the Party Central Committee through the Party life guidance sections.

Noting that our Party has powerfully guided socialist construction while further cementing the political position and displaying its fighting efficiency despite manifold harsh trials and challenges, he said it would have been unthinkable without the activities of the Party life guidance sections of the organizational departments of the Party committees at all levels. He added it is none other than the Party life guidance sections that are responsible for grasping and propelling the execution of such important tasks assigned to the Party organizations as the tasks of applying the people-first principle, the main political idea of our Party, in the overall Party work, establishing a revolutionary Party climate of unconditional and devoted service to the people, making city and county Party organizations the powerful staffs steering their regional development, bringing about a revolutionary turn in cadres          affairs,          transforming          the     Party  ranks  into          elites  and     further strengthening the primary Party committees, the main combat units in implementation of the Party policies, as well as turning the Party cells into healthy and viable ones closely knitted in the bonds of kinship.

Noting that it can be said that the Party life guidance sections of organizational departments of the Party are the main axis of implementing the idea and policies on Party building set forth by the Party Central Committee as regards the eternal guidelines for the Party and the revolution, he added that this is the definition of the position and duty of the Party life guidance sections in Party building and activities.

 

Saying that the more the revolution advances, the more the responsible mission and important role of the Party life guidance sections are highlighted in ensuring the Party Central Committee's guidance over the Party organizations, making our Party an integral organization with firm base and enlisting the masses in the implementation of the Party's policies, he stressed that it is the demand and principle kept in building our Party that its organizational departments should always take the lead in the work for strengthening the Party and the officials in the Party life guidance sections should be a standard-bearer in doing so.

From this viewpoint, the Party Central Committee places great importance on the current special workshop and urges the officials in the Party life guidance sections to surely fulfill their leading, core and vanguard role in further enhancing the Party's fighting efficiency and guide and help the Party organizations and officials firmly preserve the revolutionary Party spirit and effectively implement the Party policies and thus make the good feature of the Party be always maintained, he stressed.
