We Warmly Support the Joint New Year Editorial of the DPRK

 

Today the Association for the Study of Songun Politics and the Juche Idea Study Group of England issued a joint statement in support of the joint editorial of the DPRK main newspapers entitled "Glorify This Year of the 60th Anniversary of the Founding of the DPRK as a Year of Historical Turn Which Will Go Down in the History of the Country".

The editorial of the DPRK is indeed highly noteworthy and significant. It sets out revolutionary and militant tasks to be fulfilled in the struggle for socialist construction calling for the 60th anniversary of the DPRK to be glorified.

Our members will study this profound editorial. We are excited by the prospect of the 60th anniversary of the foundation of the DPRK being glorified.

The 60th anniversary of the DPRK is a landmark event not only for the people of the DPRK but also for the Juche idea and Songun idea followers and the world progressive and revolutionary people.

Great success were achieved in 2007, the DPRK's defense power was further increased and the independence and self support of the national economy enhanced.

The editorial correctly points out that "Our Republic is a great people's country which embodies the Juche idea, the most dignified, invincible socialist power and the cradle of the eternal life and happiness of our people. The founding of the DPRK by Kim Il Sung was a historic event which made our people an independent and mighty revolutionary people and ushered in the building of a socialist state centered on the masses". This is significant for those people throughout the world who struggle for independence and socialism.

The editorial correctly embodies the Juche-orientated line of putting ideology first. This has proved to be the correct way to build socialism as attempts to build socialism by stressing on the material factor alone led to the collapse of socialism in some countries and to going off the rails in other countries.

The editorial also calls for smashing the imperialists ideological and cultural infiltration and for adherence to the revolutionary and class principle.

We warmly applaud this and call for revolutionary peoples to take note of this.

Socialism was frustrated in some countries because they failed to counter the insidious intrusion of bourgeois imperialist ideology and culture in their societies.

The editorial is true to the Songun revolutionary line of building up defense power. The armed might of imperialism is only defeated by the armed might of socialism!

The editorial stresses that the national defense is an all people¡¯s work and calls for the enhancement of socialist military power.

We support the line of giving full play to advantages and vitality of the independent national economy. The editorial correctly puts emphasis on improving people's living standards. In contrast to the capitalist countries where living standards are being reduced, the DPRK will implement the people¡¯s living-first policy.

We are sure that the joint editorial will become the banner of building a people¡¯s socialist paradise of Songun in the land of Korea!

We in the ASSPUK and JISGE salute and applaud the joint editorial.

We call upon other Study groups and organizations to study it and organize in support of it!

We hope that meaningful functions will be organized throughout the world to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the DPRK, the bastion of real socialism and Juche.

We wish the people, army and Party of the DPRK great success in the struggle to glorify the 60th anniversary of the DPRK.
