Young people, who had lagged behind, felt thankful to the motherly Party and the socialist system that embraced and brought them up and embarked on life at the most difficult and labour-consuming posts for prosperity of the country. I fully support and think it laudable.

In the era when the arduous struggle continues to bring about a new victory of the revolution, many young people like them faithful to the call of the Party and the revolution are produced. It is an expression of the superiority of our socialist system and a manifestation of our young people's noble outlook on life and future. For the Party making a revolution, it is the greatest pride, asset and wealth which cannot be compared with anything to have its reliable successors and reserves and main force of promising young people.

On today's road for grand general advance our youth group should become a spark of struggle and prairie fire everywhere. They should become the youth heroes and heroines making strenuous efforts for prosperity and progress of the country with valuable patriotism.

The Party organizations and youth league organizations should take warm care of the work and life of those young people who volunteered to their regions and units and become a walking stick for them when they are exhausted and willingly give backing to and lead them when their steps get slow, so that they can receive a diploma of the most wonderful life.
