April 15, 2007 - The Korean people lead a genuine life under the socialist system where the masses of the people are masters of everything and everything serves them. This system is associated with the wise leadership of Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il who have always traveled down together a path of dedication to the people, placing The people are my god as their lifelong motto and political philosophy.
President Kim Il Sung, who embarked on the road of revolution in his early years shouldering the destiny of the people deprived of their country, authored the Juche idea, organized and led the anti-Japanese revolutionary struggle to victory, accomplishing the historic cause of national liberation, and built socialist Korea.
The leader Kim Jong Il, who started his revolutionary activities in his early years with a far-sighted ambition to brilliantly consummate the revolutionary cause of the President, continued his tour of on-the-spot guidance to different places all over the country and energetically led the whole of socialist construction from the time much earlier than 40 years ago when he started work at the Central Committee of the Workers’ Party of Korea to lead our revolution.
During all these years they meditated and thought together, and created and led construction together, hewing out the grim revolutionary road for scores of years together, making their common mission and goal of “only for the sake of the people” and “together with the people” run through their revolutionary struggle.
Through their extraordinary inquiry and energetic ideological and theoretical activities they further consolidated the ideological basis of our-style people-centered socialism with the Juche idea that the masters of the revolution and construction are the masses of the people and that they are also the motive force of the revolution and construction.
Kim Jong Il has written numerous works including On the Juche Idea, where he has given the most valuable ideological and spiritual wealth to the Korean people by rearing the Juche idea initiated and implanted in the hearts of the Korean people by Kim Il Sung into dense forests and bringing about a rich harvest.
They raised the existence and value of man onto the highest plane and brilliantly illuminated a shortcut to the socialist construction for realizing the independent demands of the people with the rays of the Juche idea.
The idea and theory on the three revolutions, ideological, technical and cultural, which the Korean people hold fast to as the general line in the socialist construction, are the outcome of the two great men’s joint speculation and inquiry.
They made tours of on-the-spot guidance together to put into practice the lines and policies of the Party and the state. The country’s prosperity and people’s welfare were always the focus of their long discussion and the roads of their field inspection from the steep passes in the northern tip to the foot paths between paddy fields in the western coast have been engraved with the traces of their devotion to their realization.
On their road for the people grand programs of the socialist construction including the line on the three-major technical revolutions have been materialized with success and the country’s independent national economy further consolidated.
President Kim Il Sung and the leader Kim Jong Il solidified the defense power of the country rock-firm and stoutly defended the socialist motherland by consistently carrying through the Songun revolutionary line of the WPK.
Saying that the substantial superiority of the people-centered socialism incessantly develops by dint of the united strength of the masses of the people, they effected the moral unity of the whole society based on the revolutionary comradeship and sense of moral obligations as an integrated whole of the leader, the Party and the masses, firmly united ideologically and on will.
They developed the WPK into a mother party that enjoys the absolute support and encouragement of the masses of the people and made the people’s power serve them.
They saw to it that the Party strictly adhered to safeguarding the people’s interests as the supreme principle of its activities and it regarded the love for and trust in the people as the core of its policies.
Besides, they enabled the popular masses to exercise their independent rights to the full in political life as the masters of the state and society and made the people’s power organs become staunch protectors of the people and officials of the power organs servants of the people.
The Korean people lead an independent life in the place of eternal happiness thanks to President Kim Il Sung and the leader Kim Jong Il who added luster to the people-centered socialism with energetic leadership.
The Korean people make a fresh leap in the socialist construction upholding the Songun leadership of Kim Jong Il.
