The lectures extolled the leadership of the country\u2019s supreme leader and called on all government agencies to hasten the accomplishment of goals set forth by the Workers&#8217; Party of Korea just as the space sector had done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Speaking on condition of anonymity on Dec. 5, a source in North Korea said lectures to celebrate the successful launch of the Malligyong-1 spy satellite were held at provincial party committees, the Ministry of State Security, Ministry of Social Security, and other agencies from Nov. 23 to 25.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the case of the Ministry of State Security, three lectures were held at the ministry\u2019s headquarters in the Ryonmot-dong neighborhood of Sosong District, Pyongyang. Officials who attended the lectures received three-page documents that were collected immediately after the lecture ended.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The document&#8217;s introduction praised the nation\u2019s supreme leader, saying that North Korea \u201chad become a global space power thanks to the excellent leadership of Comrade General-Secretary Kim Jong Un.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The document then praised the \u201caccomplishment of yet another task from the five-year plan to develop defense science and weapon systems presented during the Eighth Party Congress of January 2021.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the time, North Korea ordered the development of miniaturized nuclear weapons and tactical nuclear weapons; the production of super-large nuclear warheads; the improvement of accuracy rates for strikes within a range of 15,000 kilometers; the development and adoption of hypersonic weapons; the creation of land-launched and sea-launched solid-fuel intercontinental ballistic missiles; the acquisition of nuclear-powered submarines and sea-launched nuclear strategic weapons; the operation of military spy satellites; and the development of reconnaissance drones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the lecture materials, the country attained one of the goals of the Workers&#8217; Party \u201cdue to the sincerity of space development scientists and technicians,\u201d indicating that even the commemorative lectures held for the benefit of government employees praised the hard work done by scientists and technicians in the space development sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Daily NK <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailynk.com\/20231127-6\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.dailynk.com\/20231205-4\/\">reported <\/a>in November that the North Korean leadership congratulated the National Aerospace Technology Administration\u2019s scientists immediately following the third and successful satellite launch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kim Jong Un reportedly praised the \u201cloyalty\u201d of the scientists who \u2014 out of \u201cconviction\u201d \u2014 proposed that the launch be delayed until after October, despite the authorities\u2019 public declaration that they would attempt another launch in October.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Officials complain of nonstop government demands for more money<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The recent lectures in Pyongyang urged all agencies and workplaces to ramp up efforts for the year-end review, just like the scientists and technicians who &#8220;accomplished the will of the Workers&#8217; Party.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Officials who attended the lectures complained that they might be tasked with contributing more party funds, even as they took pride in the government&#8217;s launch of the spy satellite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOfficials lamented that each agency worked hard to gather party funds to develop strategic weapons, and now they must earn dollars to conquer space, too,&#8221; the source said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Asked if the lectures mentioned Kim\u2019s family members like his wife, Ri Sol Ju, or his children, the source answered, \u201cNo, not at all.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Translated by David Black.
