indus?try and agriculture, along with heavy industry, can<br />

ensure a systemat?ic improvement of the people،¯s living<br />

standard and boost the devel?opment of heavy industry<br />

itself. Solving the problem of food on one،¯s own through<br />

successful farming, in particular, is of tremendous<br />

significance in providing the people with stabilized living<br />

conditions and an independent life.<br />

Equipping the economy with modern techniques and<br />

training the nation،¯s technical cadres on an extensive scale<br />

are indispensable for the construction of an independent<br />

national economy.<br />

Technical independence is absolutely necessary for<br />

economic independence. When one has one،¯s own<br />

developed techniques, one will be able to develop and use<br />

and technological progress by one،¯s own initiative. This is<br />

a particularly important task in building a new society for<br />

those countries which were under the yoke of imperialism<br />

in the past and which consequently were far removed from<br />

modern science and technical development. Therefore, in<br />

order to undertake the technical revolution and attain<br />

economic and technical independence, one must put a lot of<br />

effort into the cultural revo?lution and thus raise the<br />

cultural and technical levels of the working masses and<br />

train an army of national technical cadres. We must<br />

reso?lutely implement the leader،¯s policy of<br />

intellectualizing the whole society, further raise the cultural<br />

and technical levels of the working masses, improve the
