At the education room he was satisfied with the fact that with the establishment of data transmission system at units and subunits as a whole including islet defence units and frontline units, servicepersons read and study the Party and army newspapers every day and so a big problem was solved for political and ideological education and political, ideological and mental pabulum could be given to the servicepersons every day.
He pointed out that all the servicepersons who fulfill their sacred duty to defend the country with arms of the revolution in their hands on a remote islet forefront are our precious comrades-in-arms and dear children of the people, adding that we should take responsibilities for their growth before the people, help the servicepersons know the spirit of collectivism and cultivate independence, self-sustenance, assiduity and devotion through the fulfillment of military tasks and life experience so that the servicepersons further train themselves to be resolute revolutionaries and true human beings in the days of honorable military service, and educate and lead them to voluntarily observe steel-strong military discipline and cherish patriotism and comradeship and have them properly establish the revolutionary world outlook and to this end it is necessary always to pay attention to the political and ideological education, education in morality and cultural education.
