On his new year's speech, North Korean leader Kim Jong Un surprised us with a change of politics. Here's a quotation from the more specific part of his speech as has been published in Chinese by New China Network today, 1st January 2013:
Kim Jong Un delivering his New Year's speech.
A youngster in old-fashioned cloth and of [cosmopolitan attitude] introducing new aspects.
要为把国民经济先行部门和基础工业部门搞上去采取决定性措施，以使煤炭、电力、冶金、铁路运输部门领先，巩固经济强国建设的跳台。特别是要使煤炭、冶金工业部门掀起革新，搞活国家的全盘经济。要下大力量振兴直接关系到人民生活的部门和单位，增加生产，使人民得到更多的生活实惠。
[We] need to take the vanguard branches of national economy and basic industrial branches and start to employ decisive measures in order to push in the lead such branches [dealing with] coal, electricity, metal processing and railway long-distance traffic, such strengthening economy as the [platform] of construction of a powerful nation. What is particularly needed is an upsurge of innovation in industrial branches [dealing with] coal and metal processing which might stimulate the complete array of national economy. [We] need to bring about great strength [in order to] vigorously develop a direct relationship with [all] fields of life of the people and their units [i.e. organizations], strengthen production and make people receive even more [material] benefit of living.
