It is to develop primarily defense industry and develop light industry and agriculture simultaneously.
① It is to develop defence industry primarily.
Military affairs are the first and defence industry is primary in the present era, especially in the Korean revolution. It is a vital need for the Korean people to develop defence industry primarily. That is because it is impossible to defend the national independence and dignity and socialism and build a thriving nation without strong military strength.
It is the first and foremost strategic task of the Korean revolution to intensify the national military strength and further develop defence industry.
② It is to develop light industry and agriculture simultaneously.
It is the important content of the DPRK’s line of economic construction in the era of Songun to improve the people’s living standard considerably by giving priority to defence industry and developing light industry and agriculture simultaneously.
That is because improving the people’s material and cultural living standard systematically is an intrinsic need and fundamental purpose of the socialist economic construction in the DPRK.
That is also because raising the people’s living standard is an important work which is significant in providing them with abundant and civilized life and further consolidates the political and military strength of the country.
