Pyongyang, August 25 (KCNA) -- General Secretary Kim Jong Il gave field guidance to the technologically updated Pyongyang Cornstarch Factory as required by the IT age.

He highly appreciated the feats performed by the builders and their helpers, expressing great satisfaction over the fact that the factory automated all the production processes ranging from the feeding of raw materials to the packing of products by putting them on a CNC basis and thus dramatically increased the production and established a high level of cultured practice in hygiene and production.
It is a miracle that the technological updating of the factory was successfully completed in a matter of several months, he said, adding that this stirring reality eloquently proves that officials can bring about an epochal change in improving the standard of people's diet in a short span of time when they keep hold on science and technology with ardent love for the people and devoted service for them.
