Genuine Welfare Policy Impossible in Capitalist Society: Rodong Sinmun

Pyongyang, July 21 (KCNA) -- Rodong Sinmun Sunday stresses in an article that it is an out-and-out deception and daydream to build a "welfare society" in capitalist countries where the gap between the rich and the poor is extremely widening and all sorts of social evils are rampant.

The article says that the building of "welfare society" much touted by politicians in capitalist countries is nothing but an advertisement for covering up the inequality and anti-popular nature of the capitalist society.

It goes on:

A tiny handful of capitalists suppress and dominate the popular masses in the capitalist society. The state power is seized by monopoly capitalists and reactionary ruling quarters serving them.

There is no representative of workers and peasants in parliaments of capitalist countries. The same is true of governmental organs.

Politicians in capitalist countries are all mouthpiece for the interests of business giants and their servants.

They make all sorts of pledges during presidential and parliamentary election campaigns to curry favor with electors, but deny all of them after taking power.

Class antagonism and conflict reach an extreme in the capitalist society.

It is self-evident that capitalists can never have mercy on the working masses as the former remains hostile to the latter.

Therefore, the enforcement of genuine welfare policy for the people is impossible in the capitalist society. -0-

Rodong Sinmun and Kulloja Say Self-Reliance Serves as Eternal Lifeline of Korean Revolution

Pyongyang, July 13 (KCNA) -- Rodong Sinmun on Saturday carries a joint article of Rodong Sinmun and Kulloja (magazine).

The joint article says that self-reliance serves as a revolutionary mode and the principle of struggle of the Korean people who regard independence and self-respect as their life.

It goes on:

All victories and glory the Workers' Party of Korea (WPK) and the Korean people have won through severe trials and difficulties for the last decades are the noble fruition of self-reliance.

Self-reliance is not just a tactical countermeasure for meeting a requirement of the changed situation and overcoming a temporary obstacle standing in the way of advance, but the invariable political line the WPK and the Korean people have confirmed and consistently maintained as a fundamental orientation and the mode of development in building socialism.

The banner for independence with one's own efforts the first generation of the Korean revolution upheld in the thick forests of Mt Paektu in the severe period when the nation's destiny stood at the crossroads of life and death has been more firmly inherited as the banner of independence and self-support in the whole course of solidifying the foundation of democracy and building socialism from scratch with one's own efforts.

Today, the political line of self-reliance clarified again by the Party serves as a treasured sword of building up a rich country with a strong army for defending the gains of socialism which can not be bartered for anything else in the world and accomplishing the cause of building a powerful country by fully displaying the potential for the development of the DPRK.

Self-reliance serves as the eternal lifeline of the Korean revolution which can never be abandoned as long as the DPRK and its people exist.

Thanks to Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un who makes total dedication with the lifelong will to build the great Kim Il Sung's nation and Kim Jong Il's Korea into an independent power to be admired by the world, Juche Korea is making a vigorous advance along the road of self-reliance.

The way of self-reliance in which the Korean people shared joy and sorrow with Kim Jong Un under his leadership represented the days when they have been united around him with the same intention and feelings with keen realization of the greatness of the leader.

The Korean people have entered a new stage of socialist construction with more confidence than any period in history.

The history will certainly witness how glorious today's era was when the road of advance for building a powerful socialist country was paved by self-sustenance and self-support despite the worst challenge and blockade and what great feats the Party and the people achieved when opening up the era.

The article calls upon all to make a vigorous advance towards the bright future of Juche Korea, holding aloft the banner of self-reliance under the leadership of the great Party. -0-

Statement Issued by Chief of AINDF Pyongyang Mission

Pyongyang, July 7 (KCNA) -- Pak Su Chol, chief of the Pyongyang Mission of the Anti-Imperialist National Democratic Front (AINDF), made public a statement on Sunday, 25 years after President Kim Il Sung left his last autograph on a document related to Korea's reunification.

The statement noted that the President pioneered the cause of national reunification and had led it to victory with his outstanding leadership and noble moral influence, taking to heart more than anyone else the tragedy of the territorial and national division by foreign forces.

He regarded it as his noble mission and as the biggest present for the fellow countrymen to reunify the country and, accordingly, signed a document related to the national reunification at the last moments of his great life, sitting up all night, it said, adding:

His historic autograph "Kim Il Sung 1994. 7. 7." vividly shows the great revolutionary career and patriotic intention of the President who devoted his all to the reunification and prosperity of the nation.

So, the great General Kim Jong Il saw to it that a monument to the President's autograph for national reunification was erected in Panmunjom to hand down his feats through generations.

Today, Kim Jong Un, respected chairman of the State Affairs Commission, brings about a new historic turn by wisely guiding the cause of national reunification associated with the lifetime of Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il.

It is the faith and conviction of all the people in the south that the dawn of national reunification will surely break and the broad avenue to peace and prosperity will be paved as Kim Jong Un leads the Korean nation.

Our people's just struggle for bringing earlier the day of the independent reunification under the leadership of the peerlessly great man is sure to win. -0-

Indelible June Popular Resistance

The June popular resistance, 32 years ago, was the eruption of south Korean people’s pent-up wrath at the Chun Doo-hwan military junta which had engrossed in unprecedented sycophancy, fascist oppression and anti-reunification moves.

From June 10 to 29, more than three million people of different strata took part in the resistance to blow up governing bodies and throw hundreds of police vehicles into the fire.

Frightened by the south Korean people’s dynamic action aspiring after independence, democracy and reunification, the US and Chun military junta bent their knees to the people by publishing “a special declaration” the core of which is the introduction of a direct presidential election on June 29.  

The June popular resistance delivered a staggering blow to the US and the south Korean military dictatorial force and left an indelible trace as it brought about a fresh turn in the struggle against the US and fascism.

Many years have passed since the resistance, however, the martyrs' desire for independence, democracy and reunification has not yet been realized.

Chun and the LKP group have made desperate efforts to revive dark age of the past.

Current situation proves that neither independence nor democracy nor national reunification can be achieved unless the vicious challenges of the LKP are frustrated.

Civic organizations and people of various circles including the Korean Confederation of Trade Unions and April 16 Solidarity are staging candlelight resistance and demonstrations, describing the “journey for people” launched by the LKP as a deception of the public and an insult to the candlelight resistance. 

Meantime, articles encouraging the participation of candlelight resistance by broad segments of people are being posted on the websites day after day.

Marking the 32nd anniversary of the June popular resistance, many civic organizations are sponsoring various kinds of events in Seoul and across south Korea to conduct a nationwide campaign to dissolve the LKP.
