The sports sector of the DPRK makes innovative plans to attain higher goals on the basis of the idea and spirit of the Eleventh Plenary Meeting of the Eighth Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea.

The Ministry of Physical Culture and Sports and the Korean Taekwon-Do Committee are studying the proposals for putting the country's sports on a higher stage of development and organizing the work to carry them into practice.

The ministry has brought forward proposals for improving the quality of sports education and training and winning more medals in international games this year, too.

Measures are discussed to guide the sports work in a scientific way and strengthen the training of reserve players by working out realistic plans for technical development at sports education and training units at all levels.

The sports education and scientific research units are taking practical steps to further perfect the training methods suited to the constitutional features of Korean players, introduce new cross-disciplinary sciences into educational practice and achieve successes in research conducive to improving the scientific level of teaching and training.

Detailed arrangements are made to arouse public enthusiasm for sports throughout the country, organize mass sports games in various forms and methods and increase the ranks of referees for mass sports games.

Discussed are the practical issues arising in building and renovating sports facilities in a modern style, developing and producing various kinds of quality sports goods at the sports goods production units and conducting sports exchanges.

The Korean Taekwon-Do Committee concentrates its efforts on improving the system of selecting reserve players and achieving greater successes in the upcoming world championships.
