Today all schools, colleges, and universities hold opening ceremonies with the start of the new school year.

On the first day of April, students across the country wearing new uniforms with flowers pinned on their breast pockets hurry to enter the gates of schools and universities equipped with wonderful educational environment and facilities; they are carrying Sonamu backpacks filled with various Haebaragi and Mindulle stationery. Their happiness is all thanks to the measures taken by the Workers’ Party of Korea and the DPRK government.

The children and grown-ups alike are all filled with joy: their bright faces bring a festive atmosphere and their happy laughter echoes as cheers for socialism.

This is just one among many that literally shows the validity and vitality of our Party’s policy of giving importance to education.

It is the firm will of respected Comrade Kim Jong Un to build the most prosperous country in the world and guarantee its eternal future with the might of education. He has unfolded a grand plan of building an education power and talent power, regarding education as the primary state affair which can never be put aside even during the most difficult situation.

True to his plan and under the deep concern of the Party and the State, the construction and modernization of schools are well underway across the country, and top priority has been given to the supply of stationery, school equipment and materials. Teachers and students are provided with favorable conditions for education, and we witness among the people an ever upward trend and enthusiasm of attaching importance to education and supporting educational sectors.

Education is indeed a patriotic undertaking of shaping the beautiful future of the country.

All the new students starting school today will cherish deep in their hearts the benefits they are enjoying and return this love of the Party and the State with high academic records and noble moral traits. They will proudly grow up to become the genuine workers and reliable pillars of the country.
