That day he stressed again the important issues arising in developing the science: In particular, the science and technology should play the locomotive role in the development of socialist economy.

And then he indicated one by one the task and ways for it and said the science and technology is the forefront in defending our Party and revolution and advancing our cause, calling scientists and technicians the driving force.

One February day in Juche 101(2012) officials were surprised while receiving the precious instruction from the respected General Secretary.

Because he referred to a name of the shop for the scientists and technicians he had visited a few days before.
