Instructions to intensify the work of translation
On September 26th, 1981, the President Kim Il Sung instructed to intensify the work of translation while looking around the Grand People’s Study House with the completion approaching.
He said that a lot of the foreign books in the Grand People’s Study House should be translated and then printed or recorded, and that there was no use in buying a lot of foreign books and displaying them on the shelves for showoff, and it would be of great help to improve the scientific and technical levels of our people if we translated about 5 million books.
He also taught in detail that a group of translators should be formed in a large scale and their conditions should be improved.
