The revolutionary weapons raised in the Baekdu Forest are the banner of the eternal victory of Juche Korea.
The full text of the editorial “The revolutionary weapons raised in the Baekdu Forest are the banner of the eternal victory of Juche Korea” published in the 25th edition of “Democratic Chosun” is as follows:

Today, under the wise leadership of the great Party Central Committee, we are meaningfully marking the 93rd anniversary of the founding of the Korean People's Revolutionary Army by the great leader Comrade Kim Il Sung at a time of upheaval when the spirit of Juche Korea is being demonstrated to the world and a new era of great transformation and unprecedented miracles are unfolding in which the dreams and ideals of the people are being fully realized.
The founding of the Korean People's Revolutionary Army on April 25, 1932 was a great national feat that declared a decisive anti-imperialist war under the banner of national liberation and self-reliance, and was also a historic event that opened a new era of the Juche revolution based on powerful revolutionary armed forces.
On this day, when the first revolutionary armed forces of the Juche type were born, the earnest wish of our people to have their own true army was fulfilled, and the glorious history of the Korean revolution advancing by the power of guns began.

The dazzling reality of today, in which our country, which was on the verge of being erased from the world map a century ago, has risen to the top of the world as a dignified and powerful nation, showing off its grandeur to the world, cannot be considered separately from this day in history.

Dear Comrade Kim Jong Un said:

《 The great Comrade Kim Il Sung, who clarified the truth of the revolutionary struggle that victory can be achieved only by fighting an armed enemy with arms, and who put forward the idea and line of prioritizing guns and military affairs, regarded the building of armed forces as the fundamental issue of the revolution, gave priority to the organization and strengthening of the armed ranks, and achieved the historic cause of national liberation with the Korean People's Revolutionary Army as the main force.》

All the people and People's Army officers and men of the country, who have greeted this significant day when the first revolutionary armed forces of Korea were born, are paying the highest respect and greatest glory to the great leader Comrade Kim Il Sung and the great leader Comrade Kim Jong Il , who built and glorified a genuine people's country on this land by the might of guns and laid an eternal foundation for the prosperity of the country, and are full of a fiery determination to boldly open a new era of all-round national revival by upholding the leadership of respected Comrade Kim Jong Un with single-hearted loyalty.

A strong military is the pillar and future of a strong nation, and the survival and success or failure of a nation are entirely dependent on the strength of its military power. The sovereignty and eternal happiness of a nation and people are secured by a strong force that can defeat any enemy and an invincible military force.
The great leader Comrade Kim Il Sung clarified the philosophy that the gun is the lifeblood of the nation and the victory of the revolution, and founded the Korean People's Revolutionary Army, the first revolutionary armed force of the Juche type, in the forests of Mt. Baekdu about 90 years ago with excellent sons and daughters of the people.

At that time, in the communists' struggle to seize sovereignty, it was a formula to first form a party as a political leadership organ and then embark on building armed forces, but the great leader , starting from the decisive role of revolutionary forces and violent advances in the revolutionary struggle, especially the struggle for national liberation in colonies, and the reality of our country, put forward the idea that the only way to defeat the armed enemy and liberate the fatherland was through armed struggle, and he focused his efforts on building revolutionary forces first.

On April 25, 1932, the great leader founded the Korean People's Revolutionary Army, the first revolutionary armed force in our country, and with it as its core, led the general anti-Japanese national liberation struggle to a new upsurge. In addition, under the political and military guarantee of the Korean People's Revolutionary Army, he successfully led the organizational and ideological preparations for the founding of the party, the expansion and development of the Fatherland Restoration Association organization and the united front movement, and the preparations for the all-people struggle for national liberation.

The birth of Korea's first genuine armed force under the leadership of the great leader Comrade Kim Il Sung was a historic event of profound significance in the history of our revolution and nation and in the future development of our state and people. The great significance of that event lies not only in the fact that the people who had been forced to a miserable fate in the vicissitudes of history came to have their own genuine army and hope for independence, but also in the fact that it declared at home and abroad the unwavering anti-imperialist revolutionary idea of settling by force to the end those who dare to harass the dignity and sovereignty of our nation, and the unwavering will of the Korean revolutionaries to achieve the freedom and liberation of the people and the victory of the revolution by their own efforts.

The revolutionary weapons that the Korean revolutionaries raised in the Baekdu Forest to open up the destiny and future of our people were the surging spirit of independence of the Korean people, a sign of hope that brought the dawn of national liberation, a banner of great unity, and a driving force that gave pride of self-respect and fortitude to the fists of the Korean people that had been stained with tears.

It was in these armed ranks that the grand plan for the Korean revolution matured, the indomitable spirit and steel power to defeat imperialist tyranny were forged, and a great tradition of fundamental and lasting significance for the development of our revolution was established. It was a great feat of the anti-Japanese revolutionary forerunners to take up arms in the forests of Mt. Paektu and secure a solid guarantee for building a Juche-type revolutionary party, regular armed forces and government with great ideas and beliefs .

The revolutionary weapons raised by the anti-Japanese revolutionary forerunners in the Baekdu Forest are the banner of unity that can strengthen the political and ideological power of our republic in every way.
The irresistible power of our country lies in the solid unity of the leader and the people through blood ties. There is a fundamental guarantee for achieving the comprehensive development of our style of socialism and advancing the prosperity of the country on the path of further strengthening and maximizing our political and ideological power.

The anti-Japanese revolutionary forerunners were passionate fighters who deeply understood in their hearts that in order to win the revolution, they must hold the outstanding leader high as the center of unity and fight firmly around him with a heart of loyalty as pure as jade. For the anti-Japanese revolutionary fighters, loyalty to the great leader was honor, conscience, duty and practice before it was a duty. The gunshots fired by the anti-Japanese revolutionary fighters to destroy the enemy were also the gunshots of the leader’s defense and protection , and all military and political activities of the Korean People’s Revolutionary Army were battles to carry out the orders of the commander.

Loyal vassals who blocked enemy bullets flying toward them for the sake of the well-being of the great leader and did not hesitate to jump into a desperate situation, men of faith who went to the execution grounds with a smile, wishing for the well-being of the commander even at the last moment, and people who fought resolutely without condoning even the slightest act that ran counter to the leader 's ideology and line - these were the anti-Japanese revolutionary fighters. As the ranks of these loyal vassals formed a thousand-layered bulletproof wall, the enemies' vicious and mean schemes and "punitive" offensives targeting the headquarters of the revolution were foiled at every step, and Mt. Paektu came to shine as a beacon of hope, offering our people a ray of hope for national rebirth. During the arduous period of the anti-Japanese armed struggle when it was impossible to predict when the revolution would triumph, the anti -Japanese revolutionary forerunners held the great leader in high esteem as the center of unity, defended and protected him with arms , and created the spirit of resolutely defending the leader and the tradition of loyalty, which they passed on to future generations as a noble legacy. This is precisely where the immortal exploits of the anti-Japanese revolutionary forerunners for the times, the revolution, the country and the people lie.

The spirit of unity embodied in the weapons that the anti-Japanese revolutionary fighters held high on Baekdu is still being firmly inherited today, from generation to generation.

The work to color the entire Party and the entire society with the revolutionary ideology of the Party Central Committee and establish the sole leadership system of the Party Central Committee is being intensified, which is a powerful outburst of our people's thoroughgoing revolutionary view of the leader who is determined to protect and tenaciously strengthen the single-hearted unity centered on the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un like the apple of their eyes.

The victory of the Juche revolutionary cause is certain, as the entire people are advancing with the might of oneness, holding high the weapons raised by the anti-Japanese revolutionary forerunners as the banner of the eternal unity of our revolution, and are firmly united around the Party Central Committee. Our Republic will soar high as a socialist power and display its dignity and might to the world.

The revolutionary weapons raised by the anti-Japanese revolutionary forerunners in the Baekdu Forest are the banner of self-reliance that will enable our people to vigorously open the way to prosperity and prosperity through self-reliance and self-respect.
Self-reliance and self-reliance are the dignity and life of a country and its people. Self-reliance is the best way to firmly protect the independent dignity of our republic and the true life of our people and to bring forward endless prosperity and a brilliant future.
The weapons held high by the anti-Japanese revolutionary fighters were a manifestation of their strong spirit of independence, believing that they were the ones responsible for the sacred cause of liberating their country and achieving independent prosperity for their people, and that they must forge ahead on the arduous path of revolution with their own strength.

In the situation of a hostile public power without a solid national rear or the support of regular troops, the anti-Japanese revolutionary fighters had nothing to rely on but their own strength. Under the leadership of the great leader , the anti-Japanese revolutionary fighters held high the slogan, “Let us accomplish the Korean revolution with our own strength!” and, even in such difficult conditions, without any help or assistance from anyone, they made weapons and bombs with their bare hands, seized the enemy’s weapons, armed themselves with their own weapons, and fought the enemy, thereby achieving the historic cause of national liberation. The spirit of strengthening oneself with one’s own strength, the spirit of self-reliance of the anti-Japanese revolutionary fighters who created something out of nothing and stood up and fought resolutely like immortals, is a precious spiritual treasure for our people that cannot be exchanged for anything else.

The dignity and greatness of our state and people lie in their thoroughgoing self-reliance and their strength, and the road of Juche and self-reliance pioneered in Paektu is the immutable course of our revolution. Today’s struggle to open a new era of comprehensive national revival is a grand march of self-reliance that only our people, who have learned how to win in any hardship and grown into indomitable strongmen, can carry out. Just like the anti-Japanese revolutionary fighters who made a smoke bomb with their bare hands and made the enemy tremble, here lies the path to overcome unprecedented hardships in history and realize earlier the ideal of building a powerful state.

All workers and laborers must take the weapons raised by the anti-Japanese revolutionary forerunners as the banner of eternal victory and fight vigorously for the prosperity of our republic.
We must loyally uphold the ideology and leadership of Comrade Kim Jong- un .
Dear Comrade Kim Jong Un is the symbol of the might of our Republic and the banner of all victory and glory.

All the people should cherish the pure loyalty to the leader that the anti-Japanese revolutionary forerunners had , unite around the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un, and become ardent loyalists and true revolutionaries who carry out the plans and intentions of the Party Central Committee with determination.

We must deeply cherish the unwavering belief that all victory and glory lie on the path of following Comrade Kim Jong Un , and the firm belief that we can become stronger and wealthier if we just do as the Party tells us, and we must unconditionally and thoroughly carry out the decisions of important Party meetings without any hesitation.

We must further strengthen our national defense capabilities.

All workers and laborers should uphold the Party’s idea of prioritizing the military, put the military as the most important national task, study the military faithfully, and thoroughly prepare for the all-people resistance war. The defense industry sector should further accelerate the development speed of our inexhaustible defense technology and steadily develop cutting-edge strategic and tactical weapon systems, thereby steadily building up the invincible national defense capability. Members of the Worker-Peasant Red Guards should conduct combat and political training as if in actual combat, and prepare themselves as real fighting men who can reliably defend their provinces, counties, hometowns and the socialist fatherland in times of emergency. Young people should regard national defense as the most sacred duty and the greatest patriotism and should vigorously rise up in the struggle to defend the socialist fatherland. They should further vigorously develop the socialist patriotic movement, the revolutionary mass movement, and contribute to firmly defending our fatherland and strengthening the country’s defense capability in every way.

We must vigorously open a period of all-out prosperity for national revival.

All workers and laborers should learn from the indomitable fighting spirit of the anti-Japanese revolutionary forerunners who fought a decisive battle with the enemies by getting up a hundred times after falling a hundred times with the determination to strike the enemy even if they had to die a million times, and create new miracles and feats at every outpost and workplace and achieve more and better creations that will shed light on the era of great change. They should follow the example of the revolutionary spirit of self-reliance and arduous struggle displayed by the preceding generations of revolutionaries and fully deploy all their forces and potential to put the overall economy of the country on a firm growth track. They should build more modern houses in the capital and rural areas and thoroughly implement the local development policy put forward by the Party to vigorously open a new era of rural development and local revitalization.

The infinite prosperity and victory of our republic lies in forever shining the revolutionary weapons held high by the anti-Japanese martyrs in the Baekdu Forest as the banner of great victory.
Let us all uphold the ideology and leadership of the respected Comrade Kim Jong- un with single-hearted loyalty and fight vigorously for the comprehensive revival and development of our country. (End)

('People Before Heaven' goes so hard as a slogan, jfc.)
The Korean People's Revolutionary Army, which created a true example of military-civilian relations
Today is a significant day as it marks the 93rd anniversary of the founding of the Korean People's Revolutionary Army.

On this day, our people are deeply moved by the proud history of our revolutionary armed forces, which have always remained faithful to their mission not only as defenders of the fatherland but also as creators of the people's happiness since they inscribed the word "people" in their names.

The great leader Comrade Kim Il Sung , who founded the Korean People's Revolutionary Army (then the Anti-Japanese People's Guerilla Army) on April 25, 1932, put forward the idea that "just as fish cannot survive out of water, guerrillas cannot survive without the people" as the revolutionary army's guerilla activity principle.

The great leader , who regarded loving the people and gaining their support as a matter of survival for the guerrillas rather than a matter of victory or defeat in battle, always taught his men to love the people more, that if we treat the people poorly, the people will turn their backs on us, that what could be more frightening than being abandoned by the people, and that the greatest tragedy for a revolutionary is losing the love of the people.

He reflected the popular character of the revolutionary army in the “Korean People’s Revolutionary Army Stealth Regulations” and led all commanders and soldiers as a practical example to always put the people’s lives and safety first and fight with devotion for the people’s interests.

The revolutionary legend that “the commander is also a son of the people” blossomed during the days of the anti-Japanese war and is still engraved in the hearts of our people today.

There are countless legendary anecdotes that are consistent with his love for the people, such as the story of how he noticed that new recruits had picked ears of corn from a farmer's field and had them placed at the edge of the field, and the story of how, when attacking an enemy village or city, he evacuated the people to a safe area in advance or dragged the enemies out of the residential area and then annihilated them.

Thanks to the leadership of the great leader who took the motto of “People before Heaven”, the Korean People’s Revolutionary Army created a true example of military-civilian relations that has never been seen in history, and was able to achieve victory in every battle with the active support and encouragement of the people.

Dear Father Marshal Kim Jong-un sent musical instruments to newly built schools in flood-stricken areas in North Pyongan Province, Chagang Province, and Ryanggang Province
The warm love and affection of benevolent parents who spare no expense for the sake of future generations and illuminate the bright smiles of children as images of our-style socialism are overflowing even more passionately in the schools of learning that have risen miraculously in the northwestern part of the fatherland after the great flood damage.

Dear Father Marshal Kim Jong Un sent musical instruments including pianos, accordions, guitars, euinkums, gayageums, and harmonicas as gifts to newly built schools in flood-stricken areas in North Pyongan Province, Chagang Province, and Ryanggang Province.

Last year, our dear respected Marshal took special measures for the education of students in flood-stricken areas and personally visited the April 25 Hotel to warmly bless the children's future. He also returned the great consideration by building splendid schools that add pride to his hometown villages that have changed dramatically, sending them modern teaching materials, educational equipment, and sports equipment, and then giving them numerous musical instruments.

This contains the deep love and affection of our Father, who regards our children as precious treasures that cannot be compared to gold and silver, as the whole of our hope and future, and who hopes that our school children will always grow up cheerful and strong without anything to envy in the world .

Meetings were held locally to deliver musical instruments sent by our dear father , Marshal Kim Jong Un .

The gathering places were bustling like a holiday with the endless excitement and joy of the students and faculty who received gifts from their father .

At gatherings attended by party and government officials, officials from related sectors, faculty, students, and parents from North Pyongan Province, Chagang Province, and Ryanggang Province, there were gift-bearers.

The speakers spoke passionately about how our respected father Marshal , who holds the lofty ideal that our children are in the hands of the people, whom our Party holds in high esteem like heaven, has repeatedly brought dreamlike happiness to the growing new generations.

They expressed their deepest gratitude to their respected father , Marshal Kim Jong Un , who has always given priority to education and put it forward as the first national task that requires maximum effort at all times and stages, and has helped to bring about a bright and prosperous future for future generations, with the same heart as that of school children and their parents.

They mentioned that all workers, faculty members and students should deeply engrave in their hearts the great love and trust of the Mother Party, devote themselves to educational work, do well in learning and organizational life, and actively participate in extracurricular activities to prepare themselves well as true sons and daughters of the Fatherly Marshal .

The participants of the gatherings from Sinuiju City Hadan 1 High School, Uiju County Seoho High School, Songgan County Gwangmyeong High School, Jeonchon County Hwaam Elementary School Mupyeong Branch School, and Kim Hyong Jik County Sampo High School, who received the Party's gracious gifts with endless emotion, expressed their emotions by saying that the embrace of the respected Marshal, who looks after the children of the whole country with utmost love and affection as a loving father and parent, is the greatest embrace in the world .

The great grace of our respected father, Marshal Kim Jong Un , who has been making our socialist fatherland brighter and more beautiful with his ardent love and undying affection for the younger generations, will be spread to the whole world, and the cheerful laughter of children and the sound of the song “There is no one in the world who is jealous of me” will echo endlessly across the clear blue sky of our fatherland.

Wtf, Korea supports intellectual property? From http://naenara.com.kp/main/index/en/first
>“IP and Music: Feel the Beat of IP”
>Across the globe, creators and innovators use intellectual property (IP) to translate their ideas into assets, generating economic and social benefits that improve the lives of people everywhere.
>While public awareness of IP is certainly higher than ever, there is still a need to deepen awareness of the pivotal role that IP plays in driving innovation, creativity, and business growth.
>In this sense, the World Intellectual Property Day (April 26) is an occasion to hold celebrations in every region of the world.
>This year’s theme for the World IP Day is: “IP and Music: Feel the beat of IP.”
>Every optimistic man, who has a great love of life, feels deep emotion and tries to build a better future, grows to be fond of music.
>From melodies that stick in our heads and rhythms that get us moving, to lyrics that speak to our souls, music creation enriches our lives.
>Music permeates every sector, intersecting with science and technology, film, and entertainment. Even when it is not in our minds, the beat and rhythm of music are always present in our lives.
>The 2025 World IP Day campaign highlights the central role that creativity and innovation, supported by IP rights, play in keeping music pulsing through our lives. And it shows how IP rights and innovation policies can support creators, innovators, and entrepreneurs to bring new ideas into the world of music, inspiring new generations of artists and fans alike.
>Efforts are being made in the DPRK to bring IP rights closer to life and make the best use of IP to promote economic and cultural development.

=A great event for the people blossoming amidst the dazzling changes of Pyongyang==
Citizens are moving into the new housing in the 3rd phase of the new city district of Hwaseong District, which has risen magnificently.
Pyongyang, the city of happiness and glory that is growing more prosperous and civilized year after year in the new era of transformation unfolding by the great Party Central Committee, has once again welcomed the “season of new housewarming” with the spring of April.

The socialist bustling city that has risen dazzlingly in the Hwaseong area, in stark contrast to the Pyongyang of yesterday and the modernized Pyongyang of today, is endlessly thrilled with the joy of the blessed people who have become brighter and more radiant along with the new era of prosperity and revival brought about by our Party's people-first principle.

The grand capital construction plan formulated by our Party has borne fruit this year as well, and has been completed with great grandeur amid the warm blessings of our loving parents. Following this, the workers who have come to enjoy a new socialist life and new civilization are settling down in a paradise of blessings.

Embracing the breath of an era pulsating with grand transformation, the area boasts the appearance and grandeur of a splendid urban district, and the unique harmony of high-rise and high-rise apartment buildings and various service networks is causing a surge of new housing construction.

Cars loaded with belongings are entering the new streets in joy and song, testifying to the height of our Party's ideals and goals for realizing the people's long-held desires and the imaginary peak of civilization that we want to bring to the people.

The new homeowners, who are holding their new home occupancy permits close to their hearts and are at a loss in the face of reality that is not a dream, and the builders who share today's joy and send warm congratulations are a fairyland filled with happiness of a great socialist family that blossoms day by day in the years of the Workers' Party.

The joy of welcoming the people's great event that continues every year is immense for everyone, but the emotions of the residents who received the greatest honor of their lives on the unforgettable day of completion were extraordinary.

Elderly people Kim Se-sik and Jeon Sun-bok, who moved into a new four-room house with their descendants, said with tears in their eyes that they were already so happy that they would be able to spend the rest of their lives in such a wonderful and enchanting ideal, and that seeing our enemy up close made them feel like they had monopolized all the blessings in this world.

The family of Choi Seong-chan, who spoke about the excitement and passion of that day, also spoke with confidence that they would enjoy happiness for a long time together with our country, which is becoming more prosperous under the embrace of our respected Marshal, who is trying to put our people first on the pinnacle of civilization and enlightenment.

Everyone who moved into their new homes, including war veterans Han Ran-hee and Kim Gyeong-suk, said that their families were the most proud in the world, and they could not contain their emotion at the great parent's devotion to the people in providing such wonderful homes, visiting the third phase of the housing construction site in Hwaseong District, which was nearing completion, climbing the steep steps to offer the logo, and coming out again late at night to repeatedly leave messages of love.

The people's cheers and voices of emotion echoed throughout the vast Hwaseong district from every window that opened like a painting to show the beautiful scenery of Pyongyang, which was entering a new era of prosperity and civilization.

《The new streets of Hwaseong District are the pride of our Pyongyang, and the more you look at them, the more new and unique they become.》

《I was amazed at how beautiful the houses on Hwasong Street and Rimheung Street were, and when I looked at them from here, I could feel the grandeur and splendor of our Pyongyang, which is developing differently each year, with my whole soul, and it seemed as if I could see the future of the prosperous country that we are about to welcome.》

“ I would like to express my gratitude to our respected Marshal Kim Jong Un , who has been trying to provide our people with only the best and most excellent things in this world .”

In terms of the artistic beauty of architecture and the convenience of living, you can see people smiling happily anywhere in this ideal residential area.

People holding the hands of children who urged them to hurry and go to the volunteer facilities that their father had visited, and residents walking the streets late into the night, saying that the night view was spectacular .

Along with the bright spring season with all kinds of flowers in full bloom, the laughter of the people grows louder day by day, and the shouts of “Long Live the Workers’ Party” and “Long Live Socialism” from the people of the entire country are ringing out louder everywhere in this land.

The new housewarming scene on the Hwaseong Earth, which is the result of the great fatherly love that willingly takes on the burden of the people and brings all the splendid things of the future, is a beautiful picture that realistically depicts the image of the people who will enjoy happiness for generations in an advanced civilized country that is the envy of the world.

While the DPRK has a few poor policies such as remaining a lot more isolationist (though for understandable reasons), its poverty largely is due to fuckton of embargoes, economic sabotage and the fact that most of their socialist trading partners either collapsed or don't pull their weight on the international stage.

Like seriously, look at this shit and tell me the DPRK is wholly responsible for its relative economic stagnation.

WPK Central Military Commission Highly Praises Combat Sub-units of Armed Forces of DPRK for Performing Heroic Feats in Operations to Liberate Kursk Area of Russian Federation

Pyongyang, April 28 (KCNA) – The Central Military Commission of the Workers’ Party of Korea highly appreciated the combat sub-units of the armed forces of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea for performing heroic feats in the operations to repulse and frustrate the grave sovereignty infringement by the Ukrainian authorities, who invaded the territory of the Russian Federation, and completely liberate the occupied area of Kursk Region.

The WPK Central Military Commission clarified as follows in its written stand sent to Rodong Sinmun and the Korean Central News Agency on April 27:

The operations for liberating the Kursk area to repel the adventurous invasion of the Russian Federation by the Ukrainian authorities were victoriously concluded.

The sub-units of our armed forces, which participated in the operations for liberating the Kursk area according to the order of the head of state of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, fully demonstrated their high fighting spirit and military temperament and made an important contribution to annihilating the Ukrainian neo-Nazi forces and liberating the territory of the Russian Federation by displaying mass heroism, matchless bravery and self-sacrificing spirit.

It is a source of pride for our state and a greatest dignity for our people to have such excellent soldiers.

The victorious conclusion of the operations for liberating the Kursk area is a victory of justice over injustice and, at the same time, a new chapter of history which demonstrated the highest strategic level of the firm militant friendship between the DPRK and Russia and the alliance and fraternal relations between the peoples of the two countries.

Thanks to the precious victory won by the armies of the DPRK and Russia while shedding blood fighting in the same trench shoulder to shoulder, the occupation of the Kursk area by the Ukrainian army for nearly nine months came to an end and the adventurous political and military attempt of the Western forces and the Ukrainian authorities to thwart the special military operations of Russia was frustrated.

The Central Military Commission of the Workers’ Party of Korea extends the warmest and most ardent congratulations to the commanding officers of the special operations group and all officers, noncommissioned officers and soldiers of the combat sub-units, who, participating in the operations for liberating the Kursk area, defended the precious honour of our army and performed immortal feats to be recorded in golden letters in the history of the development of the DPRK-Russia relations.

The Ukrainian authorities, coming forward as the vanguard and shock brigade of the imperialist powers in an attempt to inflict strategic defeat on Russia, launched a vigorous surprise attack on the Russian mainland in August 2024 by enlisting tens of thousands of elite troops armed with the Western-made state-of-the-art weapons and other combat and technical equipment with a sinister intention to reverse the war situation, in which they were thrown into tailspin, and thus occupied an area of over 1 200 square kilometres in Kursk Region, turning many residential districts into ruins and mercilessly killing many peaceful inhabitants.

The reckless military moves of the hostile forces that violently infringed upon the national sovereignty and security of Russia, the fraternal country, constituted a threat to the accomplishment of the common cause of the DPRK and Russia for realizing international justice and defending global peace against the imperialist high-handed and arbitrary practices and a grave challenge to the militant friendship and unity between the armies and peoples of the two countries.

On the basis of the analysis and judgement that the prevailing situation conformed to the invocation of Article 4 of the treaty on comprehensive strategic partnership concluded between the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea and the Russian Federation, Comrade Kim Jong Un decided on our armed forces’ participation in the war, informed the Russian side of it and, in accordance with agreement, issued an order of the Central Military Commission of the Workers’ Party of Korea to combat sub-units of the armed forces of the Republic to annihilate and wipe out the Ukrainian neo-Nazi occupiers and liberate the Kursk area in cooperation with the Russian armed forces.

While making the decision on making the combat sub-units of our armed forces participate in the war, Comrade

Kim Jong Un defined it as a sacred mission for further consolidating as firm as a rock the traditional friendship and solidarity between the DPRK and Russia, guaranteeing the development and prosperity of the two countries and defending the honour of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea.

The military activities of the armed forces of the Republic conducted within the territory of the Russian Federation fully conform to all the provisions and the spirit of the UN Charter and other international laws and the treaty on comprehensive strategic partnership between the DPRK and Russia and serve as a good example and excellent paradigm of the most faithful expression of action to implement them.

Under the order of the head of state, the sub-units of the armed forces of the Republic regarded the territory of Russia as the one of their own country and proved the firm alliance between the DPRK and Russia and recorded legendary tales of military feats with their high will of defence, do-or-die spirit and practical combat actions accompanied by sacrifice.

On the occasion of the liberation of Kursk, Comrade

Kim Jong Un specially stressed the following:

“They, who fought for justice, are all heroes who represent the honour of their motherland.

“In commemoration of the heroism and bravery displayed by the proud sons of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, a monument to their battle feats will soon be erected in our capital city, and before the tombstones of the fallen soldiers, flowers will be laid as a token of the motherland and the people praying for their immortality.

“The fighting spirit and heroism of the soldiers, who demonstrated the great name of the powerful and the glory of the victors, will shine for ever on the high platform of respect and honour generation after generation.

“The motherland should hand down for ever the soul of the soldiers who fought to defend its great honour, and take important state measures to specially and preferentially treat and take care of the families of the brave soldiers who participated in the war.”

The head of state of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea said that he extends warm militant greetings to the Russian army and people who won a great victory.

The government of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea regards it as an honour to have an alliance with such a powerful state as the Russian Federation and is pleased that the participation of the sub-units of our armed forces in the war has further strengthened the militant ties between the two countries and contributed to Russia’s conducting of special military operations.

The Central Military Commission of the Workers’ Party of Korea is convinced that the invincible militant friendship between the two countries, verified at the cost of blood in the flames of battles, will greatly contribute to expanding and developing the future relations of friendship and cooperation between the DPRK and Russia in all aspects, and affirms, on the authorization of the Central Committee of the Workers’ Party of Korea and the government of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, that it will invariably and fully support the sacred cause of the Russian army and people in the future, too, and remain faithful as ever to any action based on the spirit of the DPRK-Russia treaty. -0-

WPK Central Military Commission Highly Praises Combat Sub-units of Armed Forces of DPRK for Performing Heroic Feats in Operations to Liberate Kursk Area of Russian Federation

WPK Central Military Commission Highly Praises Combat Sub-units of Armed Forces of DPRK for Performing Heroic Feats in Operations to Liberate Kursk Area of Russian Federation
Pyongyang, April 28 (KCNA) – The Central Military Commission of the Workers' Party of Korea highly appreciated the combat sub-units of the armed forces of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea for performing heroic feats in the operations to repulse and annihilate the grave sovereignty infringement by the Ukrainian authorities, who invaded the territory of the Russian Federation, and completely liberate the occupied area of Kursk Region.
The WPK Central Military Commission said as follows in its written stand sent to the Rodong Sinmun and the Korean Central News Agency on April 27:

The operations for liberating the Kursk area to repel the adventurous invasion of the Russian Federation by the Ukrainian authorities were victoriously concluded.

The sub-units of our armed forces, which participated in the operations for liberating the Kursk areas according to the order of the head of state of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, fully demonstrated their high fighting spirit and military temperament and made an important contribution to annihilating the Ukrainian neo-Nazi forces and liberating the territory of the Russian Federation by displaying mass heroism, matchless bravery and self-sacrificing spirit.

It is the pride of our state and the greatest pride of our people to have such excellent soldiers.

The victorious conclusion of the operations for liberating the Kursk area is a victory of justice against injustice and, at the same time, a new chapter of history which demonstrated the highest strategic level of the firm militant friendship between the two countries of the DPRK and Russia and the alliance and the fraternal relations between the peoples of the two countries.

Thanks to the precious victory won by the armies of the DPRK and Russia while shedding blood in the same trench shoulder to shoulder, the occupation of the Kursk area by the Ukrainian army for nearly nine months came to an end and the adventurous political and military attempt of the Western forces and the Ukrainian authorities to frustrate the special military operations of Russia was frustrated.

The Central Military Commission of the Workers' Party of Korea extends the warmest and ardent congratulations to the commanding officers of the special operations group and all officers, noncommissioned officers and soldiers of the combat sub-units who participated in the operations for liberating the Kursk area to defend the precious honor of our army and performed immortal feats to be recorded in gold letters in the history of the development of the DPRK-Russia relations.

The Ukrainian authorities, out as the vanguard and shock brigade of the imperialist powers to inflict strategic defeat on Russia, made a vigorous attack on the Russian mainland by surprise with the involvement of tens of thousands of elite forces armed with ultra-modern weapons and combat and technical equipment of the West in August 2024 under the sinister intention to reverse the war situation in which they were thrown into tailspin, and thus occupied an area of over 1 200 square kilometers in Kursk Region, turned many residential districts into ruins and mercilessly killed many peaceable inhabitants.

The reckless military moves of the hostile forces that violently plundered Russia, the fraternal country, of its sovereignty and security became a threat to the accomplishment of the common cause of the DPRK and Russia for realizing international justice and defending global peace against the imperialist high-handed and arbitrary practices and a grave challenge to the militant friendship and unity between the armies and peoples of the two countries.

On the basis of the analysis and judgment that the prevailing situation was conformed to the invocation of Article 4 of the treaty on comprehensive strategic partnership concluded between the Democratic People's Republic of Korea and the Russian Federation, Comrade Kim Jong Un decided our armed forces' participation in the war, informed the Russian side of it and, in accordance with the agreement, issued an order of the Central Military Commission of the Workers' Party of Korea to combat sub-units of the armed forces of the Republic to annihilate and wipe out the Ukrainian neo-Nazi occupiers and liberate the Kursk area in cooperation with the Russian armed forces.

Comrade Kim Jong Un, determined to make the combat sub-units of our armed forces participate in the war, defined it as a sacred mission to further consolidate as firm as a rock the traditional friendship and solidarity between the two countries of the DPRK and Russia, guarantee the development and prosperity of both countries and defend the honor of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.

The military activities of the armed forces of the Republic conducted within the boundary of the Russian Federation fully conform to all the provisions and the spirit of the UN Charter and other international laws and the treaty on comprehensive strategic partnership between the DPRK and Russia and serve as a model example and an excellent model of the most faithful expression of action to implement them.

Under the order of the head of state, the sub-units of the armed forces of the Republic regarded the territory of Russia as the one of their country and proved the firm alliance between the two countries of the DPRK and Russia and recorded legendary tales of military feats with their high will of defence, the do-or-die spirit and practical combat action accompanied by sacrifice.

In praise of the heroism and bravery of the proud sons of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, a monument to the battle feats will be soon erected in our capital city and flowers of praying for immortality given by the motherland and the people will be placed before the tombstones of the fallen soldiers.

The fighting spirit and heroism of the soldiers who demonstrated the great name of the strong and the glory of the victors will shine long in the high platform of respect and honor generation after generation.

The motherland should hand down forever the soul of them who fought to defend the great honor and take important state measures to specially and preferentially treat and take care of the families of the brave soldiers who participated in the war."

The head of state of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea said that he extends warm militant greetings to the Russian army and people who won a great victory.

A new era of local revival unfolds as we honor our great fathers
A new era of great upheaval and prosperity is unfolding before our eyes.

In the socialist countryside, with unusual houses springing up simultaneously in every corner, news of new housewarmings has now become an everyday occurrence. The first-year tasks of our Party’s “20x10 Policy for Local Development” aimed at dramatically improving the material and cultural life of the local people have been brilliantly completed, and dozens of modern local industrial plants of our own style, suited to regional characteristics and with a high level of automation and scientific production, have been splendidly built in 20 cities and counties across the country, vigorously sounding the tone of normalizing production.

How can it be that only the mountains and rivers are changing? The people of the provinces and rural areas are growing into civilized and creative new people who have completely shed their yesterday's appearance.

A large group of patriots who feel gratitude to our Party with all their heart and cherish a single-minded desire for loyalty and repayment to better develop their hometown into a foundation for socialist prosperity are growing like mushrooms along with the rural areas that are changing day by day.

Today's exciting new era in which localities and rural areas are changing is not a change brought about by the passage of time nor is it the result of abundance in all things. It is the noble crystallization of the ambition, ideal, belief, will, energetic leadership and devotion of respected Comrade Kim Jong Un, who is trying to advance the cause of building a socialist power through comprehensive national revitalization and usher in a new era in which localities and rural areas are changing along with the capital city, and build the world's best paradise where the people's happiness will flourish as soon as possible.

Dear Comrade Kim Jong Un said:

“In the new era, our party’s plan is to make the central government the envy of the local governments, to make the promotion of the local governments represent the advancement and development of our country, and to make the ideal appearance of the local governments the true face of our style of socialism.”

It is an inevitable custom that local governments lag behind the central government, and this has been a natural reality for a long time.

However, our Party, which has always put forward the principle of paying attention to the lives of all the people and actively solving them as the basis of its activities, has put forward the task of overcoming this century-long suffering as a historical task that must be boldly undertaken, no matter how beautiful it may be.

There may be geographically distant and close places, and each region may have different economic potential, living environment, and resources, but there should be no region in the territory of the Republic that lags behind in people's lives. This absolute and unchanging will of our Party is reflected in the major decision on local development and is beating fast in the grand plan of the new era rural revolution program.

The tireless contemplation, ceaseless work, and energetic leadership of Comrade Kim Jong Un , who has devoted himself to the great historic feat of local development policy and the new era rural revolution program, will decorate a shining page in the proud history of our republic as we continue to write them, are heartwarming.

Comrade Kim Jong Un, who declared the new-era rural revolutionary program from the high rostrum of the 4th Plenary Meeting of the 8th Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea and expressed his conviction that as long as there is the Party's correct leadership, the most correct rural construction program and the loyalty and patriotic enthusiasm of Party members and working people, victory will inevitably be achieved in the historic work to firmly put the country's agriculture on the track of sustained development and bring about a world-changing change in the rural areas .

New Era Rural Revolutionary Program!

How powerfully is the iron will of the great father to bring forward the future of a prosperous, livable, and civilized socialist countryside through the shining victory of the great socialist rural construction program toward this grand goal ?

How much did every single phrase of the historic policy speech of respected Comrade Kim Jong Un, delivered at the 10th Session of the 14th Supreme People's Assembly, warmly resonate in the hearts of all people: "It is an urgent task facing our government and a cherished desire of our Party to shake off centuries-old backwardness, narrow the gap between the central and local areas, develop local industries comprehensively and in a balanced way while promoting the distinctive development of each local economy and creating a trend of competitive development . "

At the 19th Enlarged Meeting of the Political Bureau of the 8th Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea, respected Comrade Kim Jong Un said that our Party's "20x10 policy for local development" is not an ideal and propaganda that has been talked about only in words in the past, but a huge transformational line decided on the basis of a guarantee for implementation with a practical plan, a grand revolution to fulfill the elementary desire of the local people and bring about a fundamental change in the sphere of our people's perception, and at the same time a long-cherished undertaking of the century .

Each and every one of these teachings that resonated deeply with the hearts of the people across the country was a declaration of the firm belief and will of Comrade Kim Jong Un that whatever the people wish for becomes the Party's resolution and decision and that it will always be realized .

The great long- cherished wish of a loving parent who worries and frets more for his child who lives far away and is going through difficulties than any other parent, to improve the living standards of the local people , the grand plan and ideal of a peerless great man who wanted to open a new era of local industrial development and bring about a turning point in the struggle for the revival and development of our country and the promotion of the people's welfare, have been embodied in the new-era rural revolutionary program and the brilliant condensation of the "20x10 policy for local development."

A refreshing roar announcing the start of a historic local industrial revolution resounded in accordance with the iron determination and will of Comrade Kim Jong Un, who said that we should not just recite in words that a new era of local transformation has arrived, but should clearly demonstrate in reality how our country's socialist countryside is being transformed and how our people's standard of living is being improved.

The great father's words at the groundbreaking ceremony for the construction of the local industrial plant in Songchon County that anyone born in this land should enjoy a prosperous and civilized life under the state's socialist policies regardless of whether they live in the capital or the countryside, in a city or a mountain village, and that making sure that happens is the core of the new local development policy, still resonate strongly in our hearts.

In this way, respected Comrade Kim Jong Un resolutely set out on the unprecedented path of local development and rural revolution in the new era in order to provide the local people with all the good things in the world as soon as possible, and with his great practice , he powerfully aroused tens of millions of people across the country to a bold struggle to create a great new history of local revitalization.

So, this is the news of new houses in the countryside that we can hear every day and see everywhere. This is the news of local revival that is continuously being delivered, drawing the happiness of the people from all over the country every day.

If you go to Hadan-ri, Sinuiju-si, which has been transformed into a fairyland, you can hear the local people's boasts about their unique blessings, such as the love they received during their dreamlike stay in Pyongyang, their pride in the happiness they have built in the modern rural cultural city, and their children who have become top students. Even if you go to Gwangdae Livestock Farm, which is literally a remote mountain village located tens of miles away from Bujeon County Township, the saying that all you can see is mountains has become a thing of the past. The voices of the residents there, expressing their passion and joy, resonate loudly as they say that what they see at first glance is a new village and new life.

Indeed, the beautiful task of making the people happy has become the leader 's greatest wish and the major policy of the Party and the state, and in these passionate days when it is being implemented with such great effort and dedication without an inch of error, isn't it the case that the paradise of happiness that we only dreamed of and the realities of promotion that we only looked forward to as an ideal are springing up day by day?

The world of true and extraordinary creation of our dear Comrade Kim Jong Un , who wants to give ten or a hundred more for every one given to our beloved people , and the mighty gunfire of the grand creative war for local revitalization are still endlessly echoing across the sky today.

Everyone reflects on it with passion.

Attending the completion ceremony of the Songchon County Local Industrial Complex, our Party will further expand and deepen the historic new-era local development policy and rural revolution program so that the people can benefit from them even 100 years later, and be bolder in transforming even one more aspect of the local area, and made an ardent appeal to us to bravely strive to bring forward the day when our beloved descendants and people will enjoy a civilized and prosperous life in their transformed homeland and prosperous locality .

At the historic 11th Plenary Session of the 8th Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea, Comrade Kim Jong Un proposed to the plenary session that the Party's new local development policy formally include the construction of advanced health facilities, science education and living culture facilities, and grain management facilities in parallel with local industrial plants.

In February, at the groundbreaking ceremony for the construction of Gangdong County Hospital and General Service Center under the “20×10 Policy for Local Development,” respected Comrade Kim Jong Un pointed out the deep-rooted cultural backwardness and backwardness of the local areas, and said that if we ignore this stark reality and only discuss the possibility and postpone it day after day, we will never be able to eliminate the cultural backwardness of the local areas, so the Central Committee of the Party has resolved to inject modern science, technology and civilization into cities, counties and mountainous areas across the country through a special, revolutionary decision and to advance without delay toward the set local development goals . How profound are the words of this ?

Thanks to the devotion and dedication of the benevolent father of the people who wanted to add to the people’s smiles even by adding burdens to their homes, this year too, unusual rural houses will be built simultaneously in many parts of the country. Without fail, local industrial plants will be built in each of the 20 cities and counties, and in parallel, modern health facilities, multifunctional cultural centers, grain management facilities and other realities of local revitalization will be splendidly established.

And that's not all.

Supported by the great father's sincerity, the 450-square-meter greenhouse farm and vegetable science research base were built in Hadan-ri, Sinuiju-si and Seoho-ri, Uiju-gun, which are the border gates of the country, symbolizing the dynamic and drastic progress of local revitalization.

Now, in the hearts of the people all over the country, there is a conviction that the new era of local revival will prosper forever, with the infinitely close father who knows only the people, and the pride and self-esteem that the policies of the Workers' Party are the best and our socialist system is the best.

We are brimming with determination and resolve to spare no effort in dedicating our sweat and loyalty to the new era of local revitalization.

All ten million people, let us all devote ourselves to the new era’s rural revolution program and local development policy with a hundredfold confidence and courage, and brilliantly write a great new history of local transformation in the history of our country’s development. (End)

I mean, Putin is an outright traitor to the USSR (joining the kgb requires you to swear an oath, and there is plenty of footage of Putin in negotiations to sell state property in the early 90s).

Still I hope the DPRK can milk the fuck out of the Russian government and post-USSR military-industrial weaknesses.

He might be the perestroikoid minded russian speaker from the other thread.

Reminder Russian libs are worse then western libs usually, because they are a caricatured copy. Same is true for "russian left" that tails perestroika era & western narratives.

I think there is likely plenty to critique the dprk on, but approaching from using the terms and framework of liberalism (individuals, freedom, equality, happiness, property, rights, etc.) is deeply counterproductive. If anything the approach has to be orthogonal, if not actively opposite (at least in some instances).

Such a list should probably be compiled because actually decent work on the dprk, or even just reasonable data is very sparse, eben moreso in english.

To be perfectly clear, they are not that good either; They are a non-sensationalist anti-dprk outlet.

They still have the 'poor shithole' bias, just without the '120 starving dog executions, koreans believe in literal unicorns, kim has ninja sex brigade' obvious fabrications

The form this takes is with anything data related that the DPRK doesn't publish: Take for example electricity per capita output: They put at level similar to the philippines. Or gdp per capita, spurced from the cia factbook, which they not only don't put at the level of the philippines, but actually at just about haiti's level (maybe lower, memory is unclear).

So even the academic elite have gotten high on their own supply since the 90s; It's just that drug of choice isn:t the same as the one intended for the masses.

At this point, I am convinced that, at least to some moderate degree, the dprk itself has deliberately been feeding false data making jt appear weaker than it is to foreign sources to buy time, get extra aid, and have sanctions growth be slower and less well accepted/enforced.

In other words, taking advantage of liberal narratives about how the ussr collapsed & liberal humanitarian feelings. I think however is has begun to run its course since the first trump admin, and with the war ukraine & more trade with Russia it no longer becomes credible (and recent tone shifts in 38north seem to signal this).

U.N. report details North Korea's widespread forced labor

>The United Nations warned Tuesday of a deeply institutionalized system of forced labor in North Korea, which in some cases could amount to the crime against humanity of enslavement.

<In a damning report, the U.N. rights office detailed how people in the reclusive and authoritarian country were "controlled and exploited through an extensive and multi-layered system of forced labor."

<"The testimonies in this report give a shocking and distressing insight into the suffering inflicted through forced labor upon people," U.N. rights chief Volker Turk said in a statement.

>"These people are forced to work in intolerable conditions — often in dangerous sectors with the absence of pay, free choice, ability to leave, protection, medical care, time off, food and shelter," he said.

<Many faced regular beatings, and women were "exposed to continuing risks of sexual violence," he added.

>The rights office relied on a range of sources for the report, including 183 interviews conducted between 2015 and 2023 with victims and witnesses who escaped North Korea and were living abroad.

<"If we didn't meet the daily quota, we were beaten, and our food was cut," said one victim cited in the report.

'Shock Brigades'

>The latest allegations follow a landmark report published by a U.N. team of investigators a decade ago which documented forced labor among other rampant rights abuses such as deliberate starvation, rape and torture in North Korea.

<Tuesday's report zeroed in on an institutionalized system, with six different types of forced labor, including during the country's 10-year minimum military conscription.

>There were also compulsory state-assigned jobs and the use of revolutionary "Shock Brigades," or state-organized groups of citizens forced to carry out "arduous manual labor," often in construction and agriculture, the report said.

<Such projects can last for months and even years, during which time workers must live on site and receive little or no remuneration, it found.

>There were also other forms of work mobilizations, including of school children, and work performed by people sent abroad to earn foreign currency for the state, it said.

<North Koreans had, for instance, reportedly been sent to help build facilities ahead of the football World Cup events in Russia and Qatar.

>Tuesday's report stressed that those sent abroad lose up to 90% of their wages to the state, work under constant surveillance, and have their passports confiscated, with almost no time off.

'Slavery'

>The system "acts as a means for the state to control, monitor and indoctrinate the population," the report said, adding that in some instances, the level of control and exploitation "may reach the threshold of 'ownership'."

<This, it said, may "constitute the crime against humanity of enslavement."

>The most serious concerns surrounded places of detention, where forced labor victims systematically had to work under threat of physical violence and in inhumane conditions, it said.

<Tuesday's report called on North Korea to "end forced labor in all its forms," "end slavery and slavery-like practices," and "abolish the use of child labor," among a long list of recommendations.

>It also called on the U.N. Security Council to refer the situation to the International Criminal Court.

Milfags what does this stuff mean? Is this sound milfaggery in modern war or no?
Dear Comrade Kim Jong-un observed the comprehensive tactical training by branch of the Korean People's Army training team training system
On May 13, a comprehensive tactical training of special operation units for breaking through the standard of the universal battalion was conducted as part of the training method of the Korean People's Army Training Corps Conference, and a match and demonstration firepower cooperation training between tank units were conducted.

Comrade Kim Jong Un , General Secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and Chairman of the State Affairs Commission of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, visited the 60th Training Center of the Capital Defense Corps of the Korean People's Army and observed the tactical training method for each branch of the military branch being conducted under the training system of the training corps conference.

Comrade Kim Jong Un was welcomed on the spot by Comrade No Kwang Chol, Minister of National Defense of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, Comrade Ri Yong Gil, Chief of the General Staff of the Korean People's Army, Comrade Jong Kyong Thaek, Director of the General Political Bureau of the Korean People's Army, and other key commanders of the Ministry of National Defense and the military administrative commanders of the combined combined forces of the Korean People's Army.

Comrade Kim Jong Un learned about the functions and components of the training base before observing the training, and praised the excellent conditions for the divisions to smoothly conduct various tactical training exercises as befitting a multi-functional comprehensive training base.

Comrade Kim Jong Un observed the various tactical training methods together with the commanding officers of the Korean People's Army from the observation post.

Participants in the Korean People's Army Training Corps Conference were in attendance.

The Combat Training Bureau of the General Staff of the Korean People's Army explained to the observers the format, method, and content of various tactical exercises and games.

The training, which was conducted in the order of various tactical exercises of special operation units to break through the standard of the universal battalion and competition between tank units, attracted extraordinary interest from the observers.

Comrade Kim Jong Un said that as a result of our Party's putting forward the five-point policy of revolution in training, its deep concern for thoroughly establishing a training-oriented atmosphere at all levels of the People's Army in line with the recent development pattern and changes in modern warfare, strengthening the integrated system of training organization, judgment and summary, and focusing on practical training, scientific combat training systems have been established throughout the army, and he positively evaluated that this is promoting substantial changes in the training sector and strengthening the combat capability of units and sub-units.

Comrade Kim Jong Un said that while training games by service and branch of arms are being innovatively conducted in various fields to cope with an actual war, changes have begun to take place in the awareness of the workers in the training sector, and that the fundamental change in the training perspective will have a great effect on cultivating a high fighting spirit of our soldiers, perfecting military-technical preparation and improving the combatability and effectiveness of our weapons systems, and that this will become a potential driving force for development in fully enhancing the war-fighting capability of our armed forces.

Comrade Kim Jong Un said that there are quite a few fronts that our revolutionary armed forces are responsible for at present, but the most important front among them is the anti-imperialist class front and the most vital task is completing preparations for war, emphasizing that combat training to make all levels of the army into an elite force that is thorough and perfect in executing any order is the first revolutionary task.

Comrade Kim Jong Un said that in order to implement the Party's military strategic plan to develop the special operations forces into all-rounders and all-round specialists, it is important to vigorously launch a revolutionary movement to break through the standard of all-round battalions.

Comrade Kim Jong Un said that modern warfare is a showdown of military talents and a battle of the brains of commanders, and pointed out that in order to firmly maintain and strengthen the qualitative superiority of our army, all combat training should be organized on the principle of enhancing the initiative, self-reliance and creativity of commanders and practical brain training and practical practical training should be carried out with high intensity.

Comrade Kim Jong Un said that the sure path to building a strong army pursued by our Party is paved on the training front and that the People's Army's combat readiness is completed and guaranteed from the training sector, and that to do so, it is necessary to focus on improving the quality of military education and fostering and strengthening the ranks of training personnel.

Comrade Kim Jong Un mentioned the need to comprehensively complete the training equipment and elements of training grounds capable of preparing all levels for modern warfare in line with the realistic demands urging qualitative changes in our armed forces, introduce an information system and a scientific judgment system into training, and establish a new training system in line with the development trends of the new century.

Comrade Kim Jong Un met with the combatants of the 11th Corps of the Korean People's Army who had passed the standard for a universal battalion on this day, and highly praised them for playing an exemplary role as the vanguard of the revolutionary training front and in completing war preparations, and warmly encouraged them and took a meaningful commemorative photo with them.

Comrade Kim Jong Un clarified various tasks arising in the training sector to fundamentally improve the content, form and methods of operational combat training, make training a part of daily life, a habit and an inherent quality of the training, and prepare the People's Army as an army that can wage war at any time and is sure to win in a fight, and to expand its strategic potential as a strong army.

Comrade Kim Jong Un expressed his hope that this seventh training workers’ conference would be an epochal leap forward in upgrading the qualifications and capabilities of all training workers to the next level, and sent fighting encouragement to all participants in the training workers’ conference. (End)

North Korea makes arrests over botched ship launch
North Korea has detained three shipyard officials over an accident during the launch of a new warship on Wednesday, state media say.

Parts of the 5,000-tonne destroyer's bottom were crushed during the launch ceremony, tipping the vessel off balance.

An investigation into the incident, which North Korea's leader Kim Jong Un described as a "criminal act", is ongoing.

KCNA, North Korea's official news agency, identified those detained as the chief engineer of the northern Chongjin shipyard where the destroyer was built, as well as the construction head and an administrative manager.

The report said that the three were "responsible for the accident".

On Friday, KCNA said the manager of the shipyard, Hong Kil Ho, had been summoned by law enforcers.

Satellite images showed the vessel lying on its side covered by large blue tarpaulins, and a portion of the vessel appeared to be on land.

North Korea's state media did not mention any casualties or injuries at the time, downplaying the damage.

KCNA reported that there were no holes on the ship's bottom - contrary to initial reports.

"The hull starboard was scratched and a certain amount of seawater flowed into the stern section," the agency said.

Kim said on Thursday the accident was caused by "absolute carelessness, irresponsibility and unscientific empiricism".

He added that those who made "irresponsible errors" would be dealt with at a plenary meeting next month.

It is not clear what punishment they might face, but the authoritarian state has a woeful human rights record.

It is uncommon for North Korea to publicly disclose local accidents - though it has done this a handful of times in the past.

This particular accident comes weeks after North Korea unveiled a similar 5,000-tonne destroyer, the Choe Hyon.

Kim had called that warship a "breakthrough" in modernising North Korea's navy and said it would be deployed early next year.

Parental Love Embedded in the Transformation of the Mangyongdae Students' and Children's Palace
In the Mangyongdae district of Pyongyang, there is the Mangyongdae Schoolchildren's Palace, a comprehensive extracurricular education center and a center for talent education for school children.
This place is equipped with various rooms for extracurricular activities for students, as well as a theater, library, gymnasium, and swimming pool. Many promising scientists, athletes, and artists are growing up here.

The transformation of the Mangyongdae Schoolchildren's Palace, which has transformed into the world's only palace for children, is imbued with the ardent love of our respected father, Marshal Kim Jong Un, who spares no expense for future generations and gives them only the greatest happiness in this world.
The palace, which was built in 1989 under the grace of the great leader Marshal Kim Il Sung and the great leader Marshal Kim Jong Il, was rebuilt even more magnificently and splendidly under the energetic and meticulous leadership of the respected father Marshal .

One day in May 2014, our respected father Marshal , who visited this place and presented the task of reconstructing the palace, said that it was the party's firm determination to allow the sons and daughters of the working people to freely unfold their talents, and he organized design and construction forces and established measures to secure materials.
Our dear father Marshal personally guided hundreds of construction plans, frequently learned about the progress of the construction, and took benevolent measures.
In November of the following year, he toured the renovated palace and gave valuable instructions that served as guidelines for its management and operation. Afterwards, he sent numerous musical instruments, modern educational facilities, equipment, and buses.

The song “There is no one in the world to envy” sung by our school children, who are spreading their wings of hope and talent to the fullest thanks to the great parental love that is constantly bestowed, is echoing high in the sky of the socialist fatherland. (End)

Oh yeah it's awful hahah, they really dehumanize them. But north koreans are some of the most dehumanized people on the planet, to absurd extents, so it's to be expected.

I would love to visit one day, but unfortunately Im far too poor at the moment. It's definitely something to save up for tho.

But yeah I think it'd be really nice just to speak to them about small stuff yknow, I feel like they don't get that too much from the tourism videos I usually see, where they have such nasty preconceptions or even like pity or something, like awww these poor brainwashed sheep, so gross

Yeah I'm also quite interested in traveling to that place, its actually one of the few places (alongside greenland) that I would like to visit. Luckily we even have an embassy in our country, I even thought of emailing them for some books lol. And there doesn't seem to be an actual restriction in place to visit, just a travel warning. Currently my life circumstances don't really allow it but I will try in the future. There is this german communist subreddit and there was this german guy who apparently was there and it seemed his impression was overall positive and believed it was a socialist country.

Well-connected students use propaganda troupes to dodge N. Korean farm labor

https://www.dailynk.com/english/well-connected-students-use-propaganda-troupes-to-dodge-n-korean-farm-labor/

>With rice transplanting season underway at farms across North Korea, party committees at Pyongyang universities have been enrolling well-connected students in mobile artistic propaganda troupes to spare them from mandatory farm labor.

>“The propaganda troupe at Jang Chol Gu University of Commerce suddenly gained new members in late April on orders from party committee officials. Students view troupe membership as a privilege since members are exempt from farm work,” a source in Pyongyang told Daily NK recently.

>North Korean universities operate propaganda troupes that travel to farms, construction sites and major events throughout the year to boost worker morale through artistic performances, including songs and comedy skits.

>These propaganda troupes exist even at elite party-run universities such as Kim Il Sung University, Kim Chaek University of Technology and Pyongyang Medical University. Kim Il Sung University is considered one of the country’s top institutions, and its propaganda troupe is renowned for exceptionally talented performers.

>These troupes serve a symbolic role as the public face of their universities. To be selected, students are expected to demonstrate skill in areas such as singing, musical instruments, or public speaking.

>However, talent alone isn’t enough to secure a spot. Universities expand troupe membership when spring farm mobilization begins, and recommendation from the university party committee carries significant weight in securing placement.

>“Even students who lacked the skills to join the propaganda troupe when they entered college still dream of joining when farm mobilization season arrives. Party committee members often instruct the troupe leader or Youth League chair to select specific students for membership,” the source said.

<Artistic talent takes the backseat

>Notably, Jang Chol Gu University of Commerce is known for admitting many children from wealthy and influential families. Children from such backgrounds typically possess some artistic ability due to early arts education. This is why officials see little issue with placing well-connected students in propaganda troupes, according to the source.

>Moreover, artistic talent isn’t particularly crucial since the propaganda troupes are simply sent to farms to encourage workers, rather than staging sophisticated concerts. This provides another justification for party committee interference in troupe selection.

>“The propaganda troupes are supposed to focus on artistic performance, but in reality, they’ve become a way to avoid mobilization. Ultimately, students from wealthy and powerful families get an exemption from mandatory farm work. This shows how class privilege is infiltrating the classroom,” the source said.

The problem us then the right deviationists/revisionists then use this as a critch for indefinite delay of central planning.

The real trick is steady increase in movement of industries into the planning matrix.

From small private to big private or collectives.
Big private and collectives into comercial state owned.
Commercial state owned into break even strategic state owned.
Strategic state owned into centrally planned state owned.

Finance, infrastructure & weapons should go towards the last stage very quickly.

North Korean Warship Has Finally Launched
North Korea’s capsized second Choe Hyun Class destroyer was finally launched on Thursday after it was returned to an upright position earlier this week. Commercial satellite imagery from June 5 shows the vessel floating in the harbor at Chongjin Port.

The ship was launched Thursday afternoon. An image taken at 11:32 AM KST shows the ship upright with its bow still stationed on the quay. A subsequent image taken just after 3 PM KST shows the ship floating in the harbor.

Many barrage balloons that were used to manually right the ship appear to still be attached to the vessel, possibly to stabilize it in an upright position or as insurance against further accidents.

North Korean state media has yet to report on the launch.

The ship fell sideways into the water on May 21 following a failed side launch attempt, when a launching mechanism appeared to jam, leaving the bow of the destroyer still attached. Kim Jong Un was present at the time of the incident and instructed workers to repair the ship before this month’s Plenary Meeting of the WPK Central Committee. Earlier this week, 38 North reported that the ship had been repositioned upright.

Based
National Attention Paid to Environment Protection - June 5 is World Environment Day.
The natural environment is the material source of human life and an essential element for people to live.
As the natural environment plays an important role in human life, the UN General Assembly in 1972 raised the environment protection as an important issue to be solved by the whole world and decided to achieve international cooperation in this field and commemorate June 5 every year as World Environment Day.

The DPRK is taking practical measures for environmental protection in keeping with the international efforts for environmental protection.
The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un in his report at the Eighth Congress of the Workers' Party of Korea set the land management and the protection of ecological environment as an important matter for defending the lives and health of the people and making the mountains and rivers of the country more beautiful and as a strategic work related to the future of the country.

The DPRK intensifies the supervision of sources of pollution, including air pollutants which exceed environmental standards, and strictly enforces environmental impact assessment prior to development and construction.
It is also conducting the work to reduce urban pollution by exhaust fumes from automobiles, establish an environmental monitoring system and manufacture and introduce air pollution measuring instruments.
At the same time, it is making all members of society take an active part in protecting the ecological environment while disseminating and explaining common sense on environmental protection through various media.

The mass movement of all the people is a powerful driving force for national revival.
The full text of the personal pen-named essay “A mass movement involving all the people is a powerful driving force for national revival” published in the 7th edition of “Democratic Chosun” is as follows.

Today, our people are holding high the decision of the 11th Plenary Session of the 8th Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea and are redoubling their fighting spirit for great changes and vigorous advancement in the overall national construction.

In order to further accelerate the pace of our revolution toward comprehensive revival and development and bring about the future of a revival power, we must actively launch a mass movement involving all the people.

Dear Comrade Kim Jong Un said:

《Mass movements are a powerful means of arousing the broad masses to popular heroism and collective innovation, thereby bringing about constant upsurge in the construction of a socialist power.》

The mass movement is a creative method for strengthening comradely unity and cooperation among people in all sectors and units of revolution and construction and for fully developing their inexhaustible strength, and it is a revolutionary method for vigorously accelerating socialist construction through the struggle of all the people and collective innovation.

The revolutionary cause is a struggle for the masses and at the same time a historical task that the masses themselves must carry out. Therefore, the success of the revolutionary cause depends on how actively and widely the masses rise up to realize it. In the flames of the mass movement of all the people, the political awareness and creative enthusiasm of the people are greatly heightened, and the boundless strength and wisdom of the masses are fully mobilized, resulting in unprecedented miracles and innovations in the revolution and construction. There is no means more powerful than the mass movement in arousing the spiritual power of the entire people, greatly heightening their loyalty and patriotism, and making the whole country seethe with the struggle for increased production and creation.

The proud achievements being made in the all-people's advance to successfully occupy the goals set forth by the 8th Congress of the Party through the new struggle to increase production and the patriotic struggle clearly demonstrate the enormous power of the mass movement. The present reality in which the mass innovation movement is being vigorously developed in many sectors and units of the national economy in step with the advance of the upper house working class that has raised the beacon of miraculous increase in production and the national economic plan is being exceeded every month clearly shows that if we all increase production and advance together, we can continuously create new standards, new records and new miracles in production and construction.

A mass movement involving all the people is a powerful weapon that can develop all the people into ardent patriots dedicated to the revival and development of the country.

Love for one's country is a noble human emotion and an important factor that determines the existence, development, and future of each country and people. Just as water drops combine to form a mighty river, when patriotic hearts unite as one, the country becomes prosperous and strong and can build a powerful nation that the world will not envy.

The powerful means of uniting all the people under the banner of patriotism and powerfully encouraging them to fight for national revival is the mass movement of all the people. The mass movement is not simply a practical undertaking to create any material wealth, but a movement of human transformation and ideological reform that fosters all people as revolutionaries and ardent patriots who are endlessly loyal to the Party , the leader, the country and the people. In the flames of the revolutionary mass movement, people of conscience and duty who know how to repay the Party's favor, true patriots who spare no blood and sweat for the country and the people, and the embodiment of virtue and good customs who share joy and sorrow together grow. The power of the mass movement lies in the extraordinary cultivation of revolutionary and patriotic spirit among the people, fostering ordinary people into heroes, turning backward people into advanced elements, and making everyone help and lead one another to boldly overcome difficulties.

The history of our revolution is a sacred history of human transformation and ideological reform that has fostered all people as revolutionaries who are endlessly loyal to the Party and creators of feats through mass movements of all the people. The mass movements that have been vigorously carried out in each year of the revolution, including the movement to eradicate illiteracy and the movement to donate patriotic rice to the frontline that emerged during the Fatherland Liberation War, have brought about a fundamental change in the ideological consciousness and spiritual and moral character of our people.

In the historical journey toward socialism and communism, the tasks and subjective and objective conditions of each revolutionary stage are constantly changing, but the truth that the secret of creating miracles lies in arousing the ideological and spiritual power of the masses remains unchanged. The power of the mass movement that remarkably strengthens the political and ideological might of the revolutionary ranks with human and ideological transformation as the basis and powerful driving force of all movements is infinite. When the patriotic movement and mass movement are vigorously carried out, the entire people will maintain absolute loyalty to the leader , unconditionally carry out the Party's line and policies to the end, and fully display the revolutionary spirit of devotedly struggling for the prosperity and development of the country, society and the collective.

The mass movement of all the people is the driving force that fan the flames of collective innovation and accelerates the revival and development of the country.

The power of socialism is the power of collectivism, and socialism is a society that advances based on the boundless power of the united masses. When all the people display extraordinary creative enthusiasm and combine their wisdom and strength, socialism can advance vigorously, brimming with boundless vitality and energy. The power of the mass movement lies in the fact that it leads socialist construction to a constant upsurge through mass struggle and collective innovation in accordance with the nature of the socialist system and the lawful requirements of its development.

The superiority and vitality of the mass movement have been clearly confirmed in our revolutionary practice. The anti-Japanese revolutionary struggle, which began with the struggle of the entire masses to acquire arms, brought about the new spring of national liberation even in the worst conditions and environment without the support of the national rear or the regular army, and my high ground movement, the revenge record movement and the Mincheong movement to win the firearms created a great myth of victory in the war. Mass movements such as the movement to increase production and competition, the Chollima Movement, the movement to win the red flag of the three revolutions and the movement to create speed in the 1980s enabled our motherland to rise from the vacant lot and ashes to become an independent, self-reliant and self-defense socialist state and to open up a period of great prosperity of creation and construction.

Today, in our country, under the wise leadership of the Party, various mass movements, including the Three Revolutionary Red Flag Movement, the Movement to Win the Military Working Class Title, the Multi-Yield Movement, the Socialist Patriotic Forestry Movement, and the Popular Technological Innovation Movement, are being vigorously organized and developed.

In the midst of the fervor of the mass movement, the revolutionary spirit of self-reliance is overflowing throughout the country, and the atmosphere of creating new standards and new records, the competitive fervor to get ahead and learn from others, the virtue and good custom of helping each other, sharing experiences, and being the first to jump into difficult and challenging tasks are becoming a social trend. This is today's reality.

When the entire people firmly hold on to the patriotic movement and mass movement that has brought about a century-long transformation and advanced the times as a powerful weapon for prosperity and development and redouble their fighting spirit and creative spirit with a single mind of loyalty and patriotism, the spirit of collective innovation will blow fiercely throughout the country.

All workers and laborers should actively fight to further fan the flames of the revolutionary mass movement and bring forward the comprehensive revival and development of our country with its absolute power. (End)

Goes hard tbh.
The issue of entering the United States is not our concern.
(Pyongyang, June 10, Korean Central News Agency)

The full text of the article “The US Entry Issue is Not Our Concern” published on the 9th by international affairs critic Kim Myeong-cheol is as follows.

Recently, the United States announced a measure to designate nationals of 19 countries as subject to entry bans under the pretext of "threats" to national security.

The arrogant, exclusive, and racist behavior of the United States is now being strongly condemned and rejected by the international community.

Of course, it is within the sovereign rights of any country to regulate and control the entry of foreigners.

Nevertheless, the reason the above-mentioned measures of the United States are being criticized by the international community is because they are being used as a malicious political tool to discriminate against and pressure other countries.

Some are noting that the Democratic People's Republic of Korea was not included in the US entry ban this time, and are offering a strange interpretation that this may reflect the US administration's conciliatory stance toward North Korea, which seeks to keep the door open for the resumption of US-North Korea talks.

This can only be seen as a one-sided judgment that comes from not knowing much about the past and present of the Korea-US relationship.

The current US administration included North Korea on the list of countries subject to entry bans in 2017, during its first term, on the unreasonable grounds that North Korea refused to cooperate with the US government and did not meet its information sharing requirements, and maintained this list throughout its term.

This year, when the second term began, the effect of the measure to redesignate our country as a “counter-terrorism non-cooperative country” and completely ban travel to North Korea by American citizens was extended again.

Only the United States can explain whether the exclusion of North Korea from the current US travel ban is purely technical or politically motivated.

But one thing is clear: we have absolutely no interest in whether or not we are allowed entry into the United States.

Even if the current US administration did not intentionally put our country on the list of countries subject to entry bans, we would have no interest in it and no reason to be happy about it.

The United States, the country that is most hostile to the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, where contempt for other ethnic groups and racial discrimination are entrenched as social customs and where all sorts of social evils run rampant, can never be welcomed as a travel destination for our citizens.

Recently, the vice president, who is the number two official in the current US administration, criticized a certain American university for lacking “ideological diversity” and made an absurd and groundless argument that criticized our country’s political system. This is another representative example of how we feel aversion toward the United States.

If you thought that we would accept as some kind of “gift” the current US administration is allowing entry into the US that the person concerned neither thought nor wanted, you would be mistaken.

Whether the United States unilaterally creates illegal regulations and includes our country in them or not is not our concern, and I believe that the Democratic People's Republic of Korea will not welcome Americans entering our country in the future, just as it did in the past.

This is a legitimate and legal exercise of sovereign rights to protect the national social system and the welfare of the people from all kinds of hostile threats from the United States, and is completely different in nature from the United States' biased entry ban, which is largely malicious in nature.

We will not evaluate America's actions based on anyone's wishful thinking or subjective interpretation, and we will deal with America as it is and based on our own independent judgment, without adding or subtracting anything. (End)

<North Korea views itself as “a lone voice of firm and sensible anti-revisionism, alone in being untouched by the madness of straying from the staunchest of socialist paths towards reform and‘opening up’ to the capitalist West”.
<This article has argued that this viewis largely justified. Compared to the other remaining socialist states, which have each, to varying degrees, adopted revisionist policies, North Korea has remained steadfast in its communist course. It is the last remaining bastion of anti-revisionism.
This is an great example of why i chuckle to myself every time anons start going on about no communists allowed in academia, btw.

Very interesting read. I already had a sense that Juche was more-or-less created in order to justify the DPRK taking a path that was non-aligned during the Sino-Soviet split, but seeing the actual reasons they desired that was really interesting. I had no idea Kim Il Sung was so scathing in criticizing modern (ie, Khrushchevite) revisionism. Although it would be hard to adopt the Khrushchevite co-existance line when your country is still technically at war with a bordering capitalist-imperialist counterpart that is being weaponized by foreign powers.
I think, despite the nonsense that the DPRK flings on Marxism-Leninism nowadays in order to justify their nonsense about Juche being an all-original philosophy, their stance of still being friendly with the USSR was way better than the Albanian approach.

Why does anti-revisionism seem to require a Cult of Personality? This article makes it seem like anti-revisionism is enforced primarily by harkoning to Confuscian voodoo to pressure people to not deviate from the intentions of the Great Leader and Dear Leader; who essentially have to be become living embodiments of both the nation and anti-revisionism in order to act essentially as the equivalents to the Christian saints in inspiring reverence.
I mean, during Stalin's time, people wanted to publish children's books about how child Stalin could apparently do miracles. Stalin vetoed those but the idea still got pretty far in the party before that. In the DPRK, those sorts of hagiographies seem even encouraged by constast, for example with the Anecdotes series. Does that mean this sort of Cult of Personality is a good thing in the sense that it can effectively resist revisionist incroachment?
I've seen the argument before that, even though Stalin disagreed with this Cult of Personality, that it was a good thing for giving people a figurehead that they could proclaim loyalty towards and thus allow them to contradict the Party at regional level without being disloyal to the state and Communism, since Stalin himself became a sort of embodiment of the Soviet nation and Communist construction.
Perhaps the Cult of Personality can create living embodiments of anti-revisionism to use to leave anti-proletarian ideologues and politicians to a battle where they must contradict the embodiment of the nation.

I think your point about the ongoing war and the country literally being split by an imperial power is a good one.

This material reality simply made any arguments about peaceful coexistence obviously false (to the point of absurdity). This probably also had a good unintended side effect of making the DPRK suspicious of other aspects of revisionism (like going full socdem perestroika reforms, maybe even slowing kosygin-libermanization tendencies)

They do this with everything in the DPRK though.

Remember how hair saloon style suggestions were interpreted as what Koreans are forced to get?

Or how they build an entire aqua park and filled it with actors just for a few western tourists?

I mean to be fair, the rhetoric has slow changed over the past decade or so. Now its "Pyongyang is legitimately decent/good living but its only for the 10-15% of pop. that are 'elites'; The rest of the country is still semi-starving." As other cities start to get more coverage over the next 10 years it will be "cities okayish but rural still semi-starving". Basically the awful material living standards in the DPRK will become like the equivalent of the "god of gaps" for christian fundies.

In June 2000 a historic north-south summit meeting was held in Pyongyang.

When the agreement on the joint declaration was announced, everyone present at the banquet was jubilant as if reunification itself had been realized.

Pointing to a picture on the wall opposite the table of honour, Chairman Kim Jong Il asked the guests from south Korea whether the picture depicted a morning glow or an evening glow.

After racking his brain for the answer, a south Korean minister eventually responded: It portrays a rising sun, symbolic of the bright future of the Korean nation.

The guests present there all nodded at his answer.

Unexpectedly, however, the Chairman shook his head and said that the glow in the picture was both a sunrise and a sunset.

His answer was so simple and yet correct that they could only admire him. They realized what he said was too significant to be a mere witty humorous remark–every judgement depends on one’s viewpoint, and the success of every undertaking is decided by one’s resolve.

If all the fellow countrymen were united in one mind under the banner of the declaration, the future of the nation would be as bright as the rosy, rising sun. On the contrary, the prospects for national reunification would be as murky as the evening if the declaration was not implemented, just remaining as a mere sheet of paper.

At the Chairman’s remarks of philosophical depth the south Korean guests were compelled to look back at their past standpoint towards the issue of reunification.

The aggressors who have brought new warfare to the Middle East will not be able to avoid responsibility for destroying international peace.
Statement by the Spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea
Israel's illegal and reckless act of state terrorism, which began an indiscriminate large-scale military attack on the Islamic Republic of Iran in the early hours of the 13th, is raising the risk of a new all-out war in the Middle East and drawing strong condemnation and concern from the international community.

Israel's indiscriminate military atrocities, which are increasingly targeting civilians and are flagrantly trampling on the fundamental principles of international law and the UN Charter, are heinous acts of aggression that trample on the sovereignty and territorial integrity of a sovereign state, and are crimes against humanity that cannot be tolerated in any way.

The Democratic People's Republic of Korea expresses grave concern over Israel's military attack and resolutely condemns it.

The grave situation the world is witnessing today clearly shows that Israel, supported by the United States and the West, is a cancerous presence in the Middle East and the main culprit in destroying world peace and security.

Israel, which has continuously expanded its territory through four Middle East wars and dozens of military invasions in the past, has recently expanded its military attacks in regional countries such as the Gaza Strip in Palestine, the West Bank of the Jordan River, Lebanon, and Syria, massacring tens of thousands of civilians and creating a serious humanitarian crisis.

Instead of condemning Israel for its frenzied ambitions for territorial expansion and for pushing the Middle East situation toward an inevitable catastrophic situation, the international community is instead turning a critical eye toward the United States and Western powers, who are fanning the flames of war by questioning the legitimate exercise of Iran's sovereign rights and right to self-defense, the victim.

The Jewish restorationists who have brought new warfare to the Middle East and the forces behind them who fiercely defend them will be held fully responsible for destroying international peace and security.

context:
Mass rallies held in Pyongyang and each province, city, and county on the occasion of the June 25th Anti-American Struggle Day
<On the 25th, a mass rally was held in Pyongyang and each province, city, and county to commemorate the June 25th Anti-American Struggle Day.

Pyongyang city and local party, government, economic organizations, workers' organizations, workers, youth and students participated in the rallies.

In mass rallies, agitation activities on class education topics were carried out first.

Speakers at the Pyongyang City rally confessed that although several generations have changed since the gunfire of war ceased in this land, our people clearly remember the eternal crimes committed by the murderous American imperialists, and their determination to destroy the enemy and make them pay a thousand times over in blood for their resentment is growing more and more chilling by the day.

They emphasized that we must live in the capital and deeply cherish the sense of mission to make a revolution, and prepare ourselves vigorously as ardent fighters who will politically and ideologically defend Comrade Kim Jong Un , who is our destiny and our whole life , with our lives, and as vanguard fighters of the class who have embodied a thoroughgoing anti-American class consciousness.

Speakers at mass rallies in South and North Pyongan Provinces denounced the US imperialists for massacring nearly 100,000 people in South Pyongan Province and 116,000 people in North Pyongan Province during the temporary occupation, saying that they were a pack of lynxes wearing iron caps who brutally slaughtered people not even with guns but with all sorts of murder weapons and gruesome slaughter methods.

The mass rallies in North Hwanghae Province, Chagang Province, and Kangwon Province were filled with the will of avengers to ensure that the three years of brutal war, in which the entire region of the republic, once bustling with new life, was reduced to ashes due to the atrocities of the American imperialist beasts and the blood of innocent people flowed like a river, would never be repeated.

Speakers at mass rallies in South Hamgyong Province, North Hamgyong Province and Ryanggang Province stressed that today's world, where the shameless high-handedness and tyranny of the imperialists are becoming blatant and many countries are being forced into the catastrophe of war because they have no power to defend themselves, clearly shows how righteous the idea and line of self-defense chosen and resolutely carried out by our Party and people are.

At the mass rallies in Nampo, Rason and Kaesong, the participants' lofty spirit of dedicating themselves to the battle to defend the fatherland and revolution and to achieve brilliant victory and honor was evident, as was their fervent love for the country and people and their blazing hatred for the enemy.

Then there were mass demonstrations. (END)

Let us achieve a great new victory in the anti-imperialist, anti-American war by multiplying our strong will to fight and our invincible national power.
<A mass rally was held in Sincheon, the birthplace of revenge, on the occasion of the June 25th Anti-American Struggle Day.
The irresistible force of the Korean people, who will shake the dignity and spirit of a great power to the world, firmly defend justice, peace, and socialism from the continued tyranny and invasion of imperialism, and endlessly create a new history of great victory and transformation, is surging even more as we approach the 6.25 War.

A mass rally commemorating the June 25th Anti-American Struggle Day was held in Sinchon, the indictment of history and the source of our people's rising desire for revenge.

The assembly hall, the Sincheon Class Education Center, and its surrounding areas were filled with a large crowd of people who had gathered with a freezing hatred and hostility that declared final destruction to the mortal enemies who were rampaging in the anti-republic confrontation today, adding sin to sin and bringing up the tragedy of the war of aggression in this once peaceful land.

The rally was attended by cadres from the Party and government, including Comrade Choe Dong-myong, Secretary of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea , workers and youth from labor organizations, ministries, central agencies, and Hwanghae South Province.

Before the rally, participants laid flowers and paid homage at the graves of 400 mothers and 100 children.

At the rally, there was an artistic agitation on the topic of class education that exposed and condemned the barbaric atrocities committed against our people by the American murderers and class enemies during the last Fatherland Liberation War.

Through the pieces that vividly recalled the tragedy of that day when the mountains and rivers of our fatherland, which were pulsing with the joy of a new life, were writhing in blood, the masses once again clearly remembered the irony that if we had been as strong as we are today and had a thorough class consciousness, the lessons of 70 years ago would not have existed on this land.

The debaters who came to the podium representing the boiling desire for revenge and the will to resist the US across the country fiercely condemned the heinous atrocities committed by the US imperialists and class enemies on this land and expressed their fiery determination to mercilessly crush the enemies' reckless actions and firmly defend our most just cause, our beloved fatherland and the socialist system.

They said that our will to retaliate is becoming a hundredfold and a thousandfold stronger because of the class philosophy and determination to punish that we embrace in Sinchon, the epicenter of the Korean people's deep hatred and enraged public sentiment, and they condemned the barbarism of the US imperialists, who have been infamous as the "mother country of mass genocide" since the beginning of this world and have solidified their war of aggression and massacre of other ethnic groups as their survival instinct, as they become more vicious by the day.

They emphasized that in order to prevent the bloody history from being repeated and justice from being trampled by injustice, we must first become strong and build a national power that no one can surpass. This is the absolute and unchangeable creed that our people have stubbornly maintained through the Korean War.

The discussants stated that the heroic struggle of our people, who have achieved oneness with the Party Central Committee with a resolute will to resist to the end against forces that seek to infringe upon sovereignty and undermine dignity and a steely belief that their choice is justice, will destroy the hegemony and tyranny of imperialism and create a new world of independence and justice.

Then, a mass demonstration took place.

The ranks of avengers, who regarded it as their rightful duty and generational duty to receive the price of blood as a thoroughgoing enemy, marched forward, stirring up their boiling hostility with the slogan of destruction.

“Let’s eliminate the American imperialist invaders, the mortal enemies of the Korean people!”, “Let’s show the example of heroic Korea in the anti-American showdown!” …

The iron faith and enthusiasm to defend the great Party, protect the country and safeguard socialism surged forth in a torrent, and in every winding ranks, the fighting spirit and courage of the defenders who, with the unwavering inheritance of the patriotic spirit and the undying will to punish, boiled iron water, turned expectations, and cultivated the eve to deliver an iron hammer to the enemies and continuously sound the chorus of strengthening national power and the chorus of the advancement of socialism erupted powerfully.

The mass rally held on the day of the June 25th Anti-American Struggle once again powerfully demonstrated the spirit and example of the Korean people who will achieve the great victory in the anti-American confrontation by completely shaking off the invincibility of the heroic Korea that has won every battle and will forever shine the dignity, honor, and beautiful future of our powerful country.

It is interesting how much the personality cult of the Kims has seemingly subsumed a lot of their ideology. What are the reasons for this? I can see the practicality of associating the party/state with a human face, personifying the state from a rigid, grey bureaucracy into a beloved human face who seemingly functions as a sort of father to all. But is this a tactic for continued state stability? Is it vanity of the upper echelon of the party? Is it just korean culture?

Hard to say

The Restructuring of North Korea’s Food Production and Distribution System
Under Kim Jong Un, North Korea has seen significant changes across the economy. While the state dominates the lives of its people, the economy has been increasingly marketized since the 1990s. Building on some of the tentative, furtive efforts of his father, Kim Jong Un allowed his economic advisers to develop a more market-oriented agenda for the country’s state industrial and agricultural sectors.

In industry, this meant that factory managers were given rights to develop new products, to have greater flexibility in price setting and allocating workers and managers to task, to contract with suppliers, and to exercise more influence in enterprise-level planning. It also initially included increased access to foreign markets for trade and investment, though these were later partially rescinded according to the country’s Trade Act (amended in 2018).

This new system was called the Socialist Enterprise Responsibility Management System (SERMS), and was codified in the country’s Enterprise Act of 2014. This points to the importance of North Korean laws as a channel through which the North Korean government sets forth important changes in how systems are supposed to work and defines its policy priorities.

Obviously, the government has a free hand to amend these laws; there are no meaningful checks and balances in the North Korean system. But laws still provide a valuable and unique view into how different institutions inside the North Korean state are supposed to interact, cooperate, monitor and supervise one another.

New laws obtained by 38 North paint a picture of a food system that is undergoing significant changes. In particular, two laws are noteworthy: the Farms Act, last amended in 2023, and the Food Administration Act, last amended in 2022. The first law offers hints of more control over the harvest being given directly to North Korea’s farmers, rather than the managers who run their farms. The second law offers hints of greater autonomy for farm managers when it comes to operations and investment decisions, with the government mandating less how they make decisions. There are also signs that the government may be taking a less top-down approach to grain procurement.

<Farms Act
In 2012-2014, the North Korean government created a new system in agriculture called the Field Responsibility System (FRS), which shrunk the size of the sub-work team, the smallest production unit on farms, to address the issue of free riding—some farmers not working hard but getting the same rewards as their teammates—and began paying farmers a fixed percentage of the harvest for their work.

This was followed by the creation of the Farms Responsibility Management System (FRMS), which essentially was the SERMS framework for industry, giving farm managers greater freedom to develop their lands and farm new crops and livestock. Farms still had to produce grain for their state-set procurement plans, however, but they would have greater flexibility to use lands not given over to grain production in ways that could generate profits for the farm.

This system was the operating framework since then, although there has been talk of dramatic changes since 2020, including new individual-based farming incentive systems, the de facto abolition of collective farms, and their replacement with autonomous corporate farms. These measures, along with other reports, seemed to indicate a new centralization of farm management was planned.

These reports are not reflected in the amended 2023 Farms Act. But the law itself includes several important measures designed to strengthen the position of farmers and their incentives under the FRS. Article 59 of the new law makes it clear to FRS administrators that farmers must be given all the grain they produce in excess of their planned quotas:

Article 59 (Handling of Grain Produced in Excess on Responsibility Plots)

A farm shall distribute the entire quantity of grain produced by a responsibility-plot manager in excess of the state grain-production plan for that plot to the manager concerned.

The previous law (from 2021) provided no such guarantee. Rather, it included a range of provisions allowing the farm and its management to determine how excess grain was allocated or otherwise used. This implies that some power has been decentralized below the level of farm management, to the farmers themselves. In other words, whereas in 2021, farm management had control over the portion of the grain harvest not taken by the state, now it appears to be the farmers who have this control.

Some statutory requirements about how grain production plans are set have also been loosened, such as Article 55, which concerns state grain procurement plans. First, the 2023 variant of the law no longer speaks of “mandatory” grain procurement plans, implying that the government may be utilizing both compulsory and voluntary procurement schemes.

Second, the 2021 variant of the law included references to “mobilizational” planning, i.e., the government mobilizing farms to do its bidding. This term has been deleted from the new law, implying greater scope for autonomous action in grain procurement. That said, once plans are set, the government still does not allow farms or farmers to amend them.

Article 55 from the 2023 variant of the law, with 2021 parts struck out in square brackets is as follows:

What wierd bit of synchronicity; I just read that article yesterday.

I wonder if the liberal intelligentsia at 38 north are trouble decoding what is happening because of paucity of information and/or conflicting reports.

Or perhaps, and this would very interesting, they are having trouble getting a good read on things because what the DPRK is actually doing might be slowly moving from collective farms to state farms.

If the latter is case, its interesting because it shows that the liberal conceptual framework has trouble dealing with phenomena and changes that are occuring within a broadly marxist framework (because essentially, a certain number of underlying categories/concepts in marxism simply do not exist in liberalism)

Yea this was my partial assessment too. Trying to view planets through a microscope, they do not have the correct analytic tools for the job. They also basically say they didn't really come away with anything; "The relative status of farms seems to hinge on whether sales imply more autonomy than contracting, which is still unclear."
Also it seemed like a lot of what was highlighted was over-focused on and could be explained by trying to introduced brevity and conciseness into the texts. However i think it's interesting to see where this goes regardless. I foresee and hope if anything it gives more power to the workers and checks to the managerial layer.

The East Sea's famous ship-shaped islands are booming with attractive coastal tourism.
The great joy and romance of the people who are fully enjoying the new civilization and new welfare provided by the Motherland Party is overflowing in the Wonsan Kalma Coastal Tourist Area.

The 10-mile white sand beach of the Galma Peninsula, which is perfectly equipped with various top-class tourist service conditions and an environment, has been bustling with workers from all over the country visiting to enjoy the attractive coastal tourism since the tourism service began.

It is worth seeing the energetic sight of workers submerging themselves in the rippling sea water and people water skiing and speed boating, but motorcycling on the white sand beach and sand volleyball also attract the attention of guests.

The laughter of people enjoying the thrill of sliding down steep slides and bowl-shaped rapid water slides is in full bloom at Myeongsa Ship-ri Outdoor Water Park.

Uniquely designed food service networks and commercial service facilities also welcome guests by showcasing East Sea specialties.

As the enchanting night view unfolded, the joy and romance of the workers who were absorbed in the nighttime atmosphere of the famous place overflowed everywhere, and the happy songs from the windows of the brightly lit accommodations did not stop until deep into the night. (End)

I know that DPRK produced goods for the export market go through China. That the border is pretty porous as many cross for work and for medicine and so on. I seen a slew of headlines insinuating that their relationship is on the rocks but the articles i did read about relationship between DPRK and China deteriorating was around DPRK strengthening it's relationship with Russia, but i do not see particularly why it has to be a zero-sum game in this regard, the spooks and think-tank ghouls were saying the same thing re Vietnam and Chinese relations.
As always with DPRK from the outside it's never so easy to get a straight line from anyone.

Watched this film with my gf recently. Overall it's pretty decent, though it's a little hard to follow in parts because some things are left unexplained (probably because the 'true story' is more well known there naturally) and the subtitles on the version I watched were a little wonky.

Basically it's recently after the war and the DPRK is rebuilding. Reactionaries within the party are plotting to sabotage these efforts in order to undermine faith in the party (and Great General Kim Il Sung pbuh ( ;~;)7), and the plot is uncovered by a nurse sent to the household of one of the conspirators to take care of his son.

The conspirator's wife can totally get it.

This is part of a wider project to do with mitigating flooding and environmental concerns, as well as to build houses for all those affected by flooding, for other examples:
http://www.kcna.kp/kp/category/articles/q/e95919e123df8f756203fb1c4cfd3b3c5ba4baa51eb151f118c0554a58d0c53f5767493e039fd99cafec1d3d3d82686d.kcmsf
And all those are just in relation to rivers, not to mention the forests and so on, they're really in to tree planting for environmental reasons. DPRK is very much ahead with climate change stuff by a wide margin, (it's also one of Kim's large projects these big sometimes vertical greenhouses).
I honestly have not seen other examples of floods and so on being dealt with so well in other countries, i'm old enough to remember Katrina and so on in the USA too.

Also from just this month a report on some of these projects:
Achievement of Results in Nampo City Road Technology Reconstruction, River Improvement, and Coastal Breakwater Construction
Nampo City is pursuing a project to improve the appearance of the region and is seeing results.
The City Environmental Protection Management Office made plans and launched a propaganda campaign and organizational work to get all the workers and laborers to rise up.

So far this year, we have completed approximately 130 km of road paving, tens of thousands of square meters of feldspathic stone piling, and coastal breakwater construction.
In the Gangseo district, gravel and pitch pavement were removed from several tens of kilometers of roads, with labor and materials put in the first place.

In the port area and Yonggang County, they focused on eliminating areas at risk of flood damage and completed dam construction, water ditch construction, and bridge repairs in a short period of time.
In the Cheonrima District and Daean District, concrete paving was carried out in the assigned sections while complying with the requirements of the construction method.

In Oncheon-gun and Waudo-gu, coastal breakwater construction projects such as 20,000㎥ of embankment soil and several thousand㎡ of embankment stone were put forward to secure security to prevent land loss, including farmland.
The Daedong River Dredging Project Office of the National Land and Environment Protection Management Office also increased the operating rate of its machinery and carried out the digging of approximately 8,000㎥ of riverbed. (End)

That's not true, there are numerous government bodies at various levels in the DPRK with elected leadership. Generally speaking the entire CC and Politburo are elected in ML states. Moreover the fact that three members of the same family have held high ranking positions means nothing if you don't know what those positions actually are and how they interact with other government bodies, the legislative process, etc.

The creation of the world by the East Sea's famous scenic spot, which clearly demonstrates the boundless creativity and bold practical power of socialist Korea
Regarding the world-class coastal tourist city and cultural resort for the people that has been established in Myeongsa Ship-ri, Galma Peninsula
Following the splendid blueprint laid out by the great Party Central Committee, a coastal tourist city of our own style and a cultural resort for the people has risen magnificently in the scenic Myeongsa Ship-ri area of the East Sea, engraving the history of civilization and endless prosperity of a powerful country that we ideally engrave.

The wise leadership of the Workers' Party of Korea , which holds up our people, the best in the world, as the sky and endlessly unfolds world-class scenery for the people's happiness on this land, brought to mind a national treasure-level marine park and a luxurious grand palace on the shores of the East Sea, which had been regarded as a natural landscape for thousands of years.

The Wonsan Kalma Coastal Tourist Zone, which is equipped with the highest level of tourism conditions for domestic and foreign guests, is a masterpiece of our tourism industry and an epitome of socialist civilization, with hotels and inns of various sizes and unique shapes, beach service facilities, various sports and entertainment facilities, commercial and catering service facilities, and various service networks that are well-organized in artistic reciprocity, compatibility, connectivity, and formativeness suited to the characteristics of the coastal area, forming an enchanting architectural beauty.

Under the outstanding leadership of the great Party Central Committee , which has unfolded the grand plan and development strategy to bring about a turn-of-the-century change on this land and has steadily written a new era of dazzling prosperity, our people and People's Army soldiers have, with mass heroism and unyielding fighting spirit, erected a spectacular example of socialist civilization blossoming on the Galma Peninsula, thereby powerfully demonstrating to the world once again the model of struggle in the era of the Workers' Party, the boundless development potential unique to our state and the development speed of our own style.

The Wonsan Kalma Coastal Tourist Area, which has risen as a monumental creation of the revival of civilization while emphasizing the beautiful scenery of the East Sea scenic spot, is the noble embodiment of the grand plan and wise leadership of Comrade Kim Jong Un, who regards the people's laughter and happiness as a symbol of the socialist system and a criterion for assessing national power and devotes himself to promoting the people's welfare and realizing his ideals, and is a loving gift from the motherly Party to our great people in this meaningful year marking the 80th anniversary of the founding of the Party .

<The Galma Peninsula unfolded by the great party central government
<A new history of change

Comrade Kim Jong Un, who finds the greatest joy in the people's happiness and considers serving the people to be the greatest pleasure, has laid out a grand blueprint to build a world-class cultural resort in a scenic spot on the East Sea.

Myeongsa Ship-ri on the Galma Peninsula, which has been known since ancient times as an outstanding scenic spot due to its beautiful natural scenery and the ten-ri long sandbar stretching along the shore, is an ecologically and coastally environmentally superior attraction compared to famous tourist destinations in other countries.

Comrade General Secretary , who has long been nurturing the grand plan to build a cultural rest area for the people on the beautiful and scenic beaches, set forth in his New Year’s address of 2018 the task of completing the construction of the Wonsan-Kalma Coastal Tourist Zone in the shortest period of time with the united efforts of the army and people, and laid out all measures including organizing a powerful construction force and providing equipment, materials and funds.

The energetic and meticulous guidance of the respected General Secretary was a programmatic guideline that thoroughly implemented the people-first political ideology and the Juche-oriented architectural aesthetics from the design stage, thereby setting the standard for modern architecture.

Even while he was busy looking after the overall affairs of the country, Comrade General Secretary personally studied the street formation plan and pointed out the direction and means to complete the design without any flaws at the construction site where the sea breeze was blowing. He also looked over the massive street formation plan one by one and corrected each and every detail of the shape.

The number of plans that Comrade General Secretary has guided to develop the tourist area into a magnificent world-class coastal tourist city boasting its enchanting appearance and modern beauty and into the best marine park is as many as thousands.

Under the energetic and meticulous guidance of the Party Central Committee, designers from various units including the Paekdusan Architectural Research Institute, Pyongyang Urban Design Research Institute, Pyongyang Urban Planning Design Research Institute, Bugang Design Research Institute, Advanced Design Research Institute, Pyongyang University of Architecture Architectural Design Research Institute, and Kangwon Provincial Design Research Institute combined their creative wisdom and passion to complete some 42,000 design drawings.

The journey of devotion of the respected General Secretary , who personally became the designer, contractor and builder and visited the construction site three times in the first year alone and organized and directed the entire process of building a tourist city from the front, was endless.

Comrade General Secretary , who left his first mark on the dusty construction site in May 2018, learned about the overall situation, including the progress of the construction and the measures to secure materials and equipment, and took powerful measures to successfully expedite the construction by solving all problems as a top priority.

At that time, because the construction of tourist areas placed absolute importance on the characteristics of the terrain and geological conditions, a series of shortcomings emerged, including the buildings being individualized, having no height difference, and lacking artistic reciprocity, compatibility, and connectivity between the buildings.

The on-site guidance conducted by the respected General Secretary in August and October of that year, despite the sweltering heat of the hottest days of summer and the cold frosts of autumn, served as an important turning point in establishing the Wonsan-Kalma Coastal Tourist Zone as an exemplary entity of the development of our own style of tourism where our unique charm stands out.

The respected Comrade General Secretary pointed out the defects in the design and construction and reminded them one by one that the overall street formation should be artistically refined by making the connections between buildings and the various shapes and size changes of the architectural composition more harmonious and distinctive, ensuring compatibility and ensuring connectivity.

The construction of high-rise office buildings in the form of a complex government complex, large hotels, and multi-story guesthouses, and the addition of various service buildings including movie theaters and arcades to create a harmonious combination of heights and connect the buildings with their foundations to create a unique street formation in our own style, served as noble guidelines for the transformation of Myeongsa Ship-ri.

Under the great teacher's meticulous guidance on detailed issues that should not be overlooked during construction, such as the construction of a large integrated parking lot, the remodeling of Galma Station, the creation of a garden, and the resolution of public transportation, Galma Peninsula has been able to clearly reveal its identity as a top tourist attraction.

The artificial ponds and fishing spots that blend in with the surrounding environment and exude natural beauty, the plentiful service facilities, and the emergency medical facilities built in the white sand beach areas are all filled with the lofty view of the people and the future of Comrade General Secretary , who holds the people up as if they were heaven and devotes everything for their welfare.

Comrade General Secretary , who visited the construction site early in the morning in April 2019, emphasized that since the Party is building the building with great determination and investment of huge funds and effort for the people, the quality of construction should be guaranteed at the highest level for every element and corner of the building so that it will not be lacking even in 50 or 100 years.

All buildings are designed on the principle of optimizing their usability and convenience, and the construction is done with the utmost conservation of materials while maintaining a modern aesthetic; the problem of forming convenient sidewalks, tramways and bicycle paths for the convenience of users and producing and sending more battery-powered cars; the problem of building floating piers for the floating panel accommodations so that boats can be boarded; the problem of installing outdoor clocks in buildings and various places so that beachgoers can tell the time, there is no place that has not been touched by the General Secretary.

On July 16, 2024, Comrade General Secretary, who visited the construction site that is being transformed day by day into a cultural and tourist attraction for the people , emphasized that as the construction has entered the final stage, the momentum should not be slackened, the construction achievements should be further expanded, and the operational preparations should be carried out in a predictable and flawless manner.

The respected Comrade General Secretary gave meticulous guidance on issues such as scientifically examining the service operation capability and possibility, selecting service units, and actively promoting the operation preparation work, securing parking capacity appropriate to the capacity of the tourist area, building an amusement park, forming a cultural life zone, securing sewage and wastewater treatment capacity, training experts according to the type of service work, and securing materials.

Comrade General Secretary , who has left his mark on the Myeongsa Ship-ri of the East Sea once again until the last days of December 2024 when the year is drawing to a close, said that service ability and level are important factors that determine the value of a tourist destination and its prospects, and gave guidelines for the construction of the new-era tourism industry, including the issue of actively developing various types of service businesses and nurturing world-class service experts.

The outstanding leadership of Comrade General Secretary , who has an infinitely noble view of the people and has continued the journey of devotion and logos to provide our people with a happy life that is the envy of the world, has brought about a new world-changing event in the Myeongsa Ship-ri scenic spot in the East Sea.

A large - scale construction project to develop the Wonsan-Kalma Coastal Tourist Zone into a unique and modern coastal tourist city of our own style that we can be proud of showing off to the world has been launched at a rapid pace in accordance with the splendid blueprint laid out by the respected General Secretary, a genius in creation and construction.

<Through unwavering pioneering and arduous struggles
<A miraculous architectural complex that came to mind

The Galma campaign was in turmoil from the start due to the strong will and unyielding struggle of the people who rose up in support of the great plan and determination of Comrade Kim Jong Un to bring new happiness and civilization to our people as soon as possible .

The construction of the Wonsan Galma Coastal Tourist Zone, which required the creation of a city on the sand dunes of the East Sea, was a huge construction project that surpassed imagination in terms of its scale and content.

In the tourist area, it was necessary to build hundreds of buildings, including hotels, inns, guesthouses, floating panel accommodations with a capacity of about 20,000 people, with a variety of modern styles that match the coastal scenery, as well as a general building, tourist information center, financial institution, health and exercise center, theater, movie theater, outdoor water park, and various service buildings and management buildings, with a total floor area of approximately 1,449,100 m2.

It was an unprecedented grand creative feat in the history of marine park construction in our country, which required the completion of a beach with a daily capacity of 40,000 people along the Myeongsa Ship-ri Baeksang Beach stretching along the East Sea coastline, service facilities for the convenience of tourists, 19,600 m of roads, 4,780 m of coastal protection stone walls, and 15,000 m of waterways.

Since the first shot of construction began in mid-March 2018, each process has been carried out rapidly and three-dimensionally.

The People's Army soldiers and construction workers, despite the bitter cold and sea winds, cleared away the frozen ground and mud and proceeded with excavation, transporting an amount of rocks and soil equivalent to removing an entire mountain, thereby raising the overall ground level by 2 meters, thereby opening a breakthrough that will allow full-scale progress in basic construction.

By accelerating the land readjustment and the filling of the embankment, the construction team focused all their efforts and resources on the substructure construction from the beginning of the construction in accordance with the principle of prioritizing the substructure, and qualitatively completed the basic substructure pipeline construction by the end of April 2018.

Neither the hostile forces' extremely vicious isolationist maneuvers to obliterate our socialist system, nor the harsh natural disasters that struck without warning, nor the health crisis that threatened the world could stop the builders' proud advance to build a world-class coastal tourist city under the high banner of the principle of self-reliance.

Raising high the slogan, “Let us take charge of both national defense and socialist construction!”, the special forces unit of the Korean People’s Army was the first to complete the skeleton construction of the Galmahae Songnyo Hotel in a single breath, as if they were completing the basic construction work.

The military construction workers in charge of building the hotel in the traditional architectural style also focused on improving the quality of construction and completed the foundation and structural concrete pouring of nearly 30,000 ㎥ ahead of schedule.

Thanks to the heroic struggle of soldier-builders who ran at the forefront of the advance with the absolute and unchanging belief that the Party's determination is put into practice and victory, the structural construction of about 100 targets was completed in just over two months from the time the first shovel was put into the ground.

Several construction units, including the Social Security Brigade, Pyongyang City Brigade, Speed Battle Youth Shock Brigade Management Bureau Brigade, and Pyongyang Construction Committee Brigade, concentrated construction equipment and continuously created advanced construction methods and exemplary experiences to thoroughly guarantee construction quality and continuously increase the construction speed.

Thanks to the stubborn offensive spirit of the builders, in less than a year, 3 million ㎥ of ground stratification work, 20㎞ of roadbed work, 15㎞ of waterway work, coastal embankment embankment work and coastal park work, 40 jeongbo of white sand beach management, 170,000㎞ of sub-network work, and hundreds of building frame work were completed, giving Myeongsa Ship-ri a new look.

After receiving a new order from the Party Central Committee to add symbolic buildings befitting the coastal tourist city, the People's Army soldiers and construction workers immediately began groundwork.

S Korea clinic for ‘comfort women’ to be demolished
AFP, DONGDUCHEON, South Korea

Slated for demolition, the graffiti-covered building close to the inter-Korean border was once a “monkey house,” a clinic for sex workers forced to serve US soldiers protecting Seoul from North Korea.

Activists, including women who were forced into gruesome treatments for sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), say the site should be preserved for its historical significance, but the bulldozers are to move in this month to clear it for a tourist development.

AFP, DONGDUCHEON, South Korea

Slated for demolition, the graffiti-covered building close to the inter-Korean border was once a “monkey house,” a clinic for sex workers forced to serve US soldiers protecting Seoul from North Korea.

Activists, including women who were forced into gruesome treatments for sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), say the site should be preserved for its historical significance, but the bulldozers are to move in this month to clear it for a tourist development.

The fight over the building in the lush forest of Dongducheon is illustrative of the broader struggle for recognition faced by South Korean women who say they were tricked or forced to work in state-run brothels serving US troops.

Unlike the better-known “comfort women” used by Japanese soldiers until the end of World War II, the tens of thousands of victims of state-sanctioned brothels run from the 1950s to 1980s by the South Korean government have received relatively limited attention.

“It was nicknamed the ‘monkey house’ because the women were kept confined like monkeys,” said Choi Hei-shin, a peace advocate and researcher.

Many women in the brothels, which the South Korean Supreme Court ruled were illegally “established, managed, and operated” by the state for US troops, were forced to undergo treatments for STDs against their will to protect their clients’ health.

Kim Un-hui was dragged to the monkey house in Dongducheon in the late 1970s when she was caught by authorities without an STD certificate and forcefully injected with an excessive amount of penicillin.

It was so painful it felt like someone was “stabbing me over and over again,” said Kim, now aged 66.

At that point, Kim was not even working in the military brothels, as she had married a US GI. Even so, she says she was detained and forced to share a cramped room with 20 other women.

One woman passed out from the penicillin injection and injured herself by hitting herself against the frame of a bed while unconscious, she said.

Phase 2 technology transfer begins to foster skills in local industrial plants in various regions
A project to train skilled workers needed to operate new local industrial plants that are emerging in various regions is being launched in earnest.
Hundreds of trainees, including workers and sewing workers from city and county clothing factories who participated in the first stage of technical training for two months starting in May, began the second stage of technical training at light industrial factories in various regions, such as the Dongheungsan Galaxy Clothing Factory and the Cheongjin Student Uniform Factory, as well as local industrial factories built as the first entities for local revitalization.
The local industrial development departments and the relevant organizations and units, including each provincial promotion committee, are devising measures to have trainees acquire the abundant knowledge and skills necessary for the normal operation of local industrial plants, improvement of product quality, and skillful handling of facilities through the first stage of technical training, and to further hone their skills at production sites.
With the goal of independently nurturing technicians and skilled workers needed for their own regions and units, party and government officials in provinces, cities, and counties are organizing technical training by job type and production process and are also paying attention to guaranteeing conditions.
Meanwhile, technical training for analytical skills required by city and county food factories is also being promoted.

A great transformation in agricultural production brought about by the new era rural revolution program
The country's grain production structure has been firmly transformed to focus on rice and wheat farming, scientific wheat farming methods and experience, and a solid foundation has been established, and this year's wheat cultivation area has increased by 30,000 hectares compared to last year.
(Pyongyang, July 20, Korean Central News Agency)

In the new era of rural development initiated by the great Workers' Party of Korea, a great transformation is taking place that changes the direction of the country's agricultural production, and the material and technological foundation that guarantees continuous and stable growth is being further strengthened.

The Party Central Committee, which set the basic task of the rural development strategy to completely solve the country's food problem by increasing agricultural production, made a major decision to boldly change the crop distribution and strongly promote rice and wheat farming, and led the struggle to realize it, thereby creating a new history of wheat and barley harvests.

The policy implementation work for changing the grain production structure put forward by our Party in the new era rural revolutionary program has been vigorously carried out on a nationwide scale, bringing about a fundamental change in the awareness of agricultural workers and laborers on wheat farming, and providing scientific farming methods, experience and a solid foundation for increasing wheat production. The wheat cultivation area has continued to increase every year, and this year alone it has increased by 30,000 hectares compared to last year.

With the scientific farming fever and high-yield competition fever intensifying, wheat productivity is getting higher and higher, and this year's wheat and barley fall season is expected to be overfulfilled, surpassing the national grain production plan and increasing the wheat yield by more than three times that of 2021. In addition, 34 high-yield groups and 664 high-yield farms have been created, and numerous high-yield work teams, high-yield teams, and high-yielders have been produced.

The gratifying harvest of wheat and barley achieved at the main front of socialist economic construction is a clear proof of the validity and vitality of our Party's new agricultural policy and a brilliant fruition of our people's revolutionary creative model and thorough spirit of implementation, who hold fast to the iron principle that the plans and decisions of the Party Central Committee are science, practice and victory and uphold them with single-hearted loyalty.

The Party Central Committee, which has always paid deep attention to the development of the country's agriculture and the improvement of the people's living standards, has put forward major policies to bring about changes in agricultural production and led the struggle for their realization to make rapid progress.

In his policy speech at the 5th Session of the 14th Supreme People's Assembly held in September 2021 , Comrade Kim Jong Un put forward a revolutionary policy of boldly changing the crop allocation and turning it towards rice farming, wheat and barley farming, and at the 4th Plenary Session of the 8th Central Committee of the Party, he declared the Rural Revolution Program for a New Era and clarified that the people's dietary culture should be changed to focus on white rice and wheat-flour foods.

Changing the grain production structure that has been solidified in the agricultural sector on a nationwide scale was a courageous decision of love that could only be made by the respected Comrade General Secretary , who holds the people up as if they were heaven and endlessly embroiders a new history of devotion to the people .

The great father's hand , which always discussed issues related to wheat farming at important meetings and took necessary measures to continuously increase the wheat cultivation area and production every year and led energetically, led to the establishment of a unified command and necessary farming material supply system for expanding and developing wheat and barley farming nationwide, and a new turning point in the country's agricultural production.

A vigorous struggle was waged in various places to increase the area of wheat cultivation, which was one of the first tasks in upholding the party's policy and changing the country's grain production structure.

The agricultural committee and agricultural guidance organizations at all levels carefully formulated plans based on consideration of the climate, customs, and economic conditions of the region, and then organized and implemented technical guidance and organizational work for their implementation. They also conducted practical technical training sessions, technical lectures, and demonstrations.

In farms across the country, political work was intensified to make agricultural workers, who are directly responsible for farming, deeply aware of the legitimacy and truthfulness of the Party's policy on changing crop allocation and to make them accept it as their own work, while innovatively and rationally setting step-by-step goals for increasing the area under cultivation for wheat and barley and leading and meticulously carrying out the work of accurately surveying and registering each field and each parcel.

The army expanded the cultivated area by synthesizing the creative opinions of agricultural workers and establishing fields and paddies suitable for wheat and barley farming through mass movements.

In the process of implementing the Party's new agricultural policy, its legitimacy and superiority were practically confirmed, and the interest and enthusiasm for wheat farming throughout the country and society increased significantly, and this work became more active.

Compared to other crops, it is more drought-resistant and can be harvested before the rainy season when it is severely affected by typhoons and heavy rain, so it can produce a safe harvest. Also, the natural climatic conditions of the entire region of the country are favorable for cultivation. Thanks to the positive efforts of agricultural workers and laborers who have experienced the superiority of high-yield wheat varieties and confidence in high yields during the wheat farming process, more than twice as much farmland as before has been converted into wheat fields over the past four years.

By vigorously expanding the arable land area favorable for wheat cultivation in areas such as Gangnyeong and Ongjin and enhancing soil fertility, the wheat yield was increased by more than two times per hectare, and up to five times in fields where wheat yields were very low due to various factors.

Farms in the Mirubeol area, including Goksan County, which had been able to harvest only about 3 tons of corn per hectare due to unfavorable soil conditions where water did not drain properly and climate conditions during the rainy season, have achieved the surprising result of increasing their average yield by more than 2 tons per hectare by planting wheat as their main crop.

In Oncheon-gun, where rice paddies account for more than 90% of the cultivated area, suitable rice paddies for wheat cultivation were selected and the cultivated area was increased by 1.4 times compared to the previous area. In Gangnam-gun, the furrow bottoms were filled in and used effectively to suit the conditions where most of the fields are vegetable fields, resulting in high yields.

In rural areas in the central mountainous regions such as Yangdeok, Bongsan, Taetan, and Bongcheon, low-yield fields are being converted into wheat fields and superior varieties of wheat are being planted as the main crop to increase yields compared to corn cultivation. In addition, rural areas in each region are engaging in a full-scale struggle to increase the cultivated area by even just one pyeong, and the highest performance in securing wheat cultivation area has been recorded in the first half of this year.

As the area of wheat cultivation increased, a fever for high yields to increase productivity arose in various regions.

This year, which is a meaningful year to mark the 80th anniversary of the liberation of the fatherland and the founding of the Party, the dedicated struggle of agricultural workers and laborers who have stepped up to sing the Tongjanghun song from the beginning of the grain farming season has brought the wheat and barley harvest nationwide ahead of schedule, and produced a large number of high-yielding units and high-yielding individuals.

In rural areas across the country, bold goals were set to surpass the national per capita yield standards, and timely measures were taken to secure high-quality wheat seeds, improve soil fertility, introduce advanced cultivation methods, produce grain dryers, and cope with catastrophic climate change.

Along with establishing scientific and technological measures to produce high yields, the activities of scientific farming promotion groups to disseminate and spread advanced agricultural knowledge down to the lowest levels were strengthened, further heightening the enthusiasm for scientific farming.

The workers and agricultural workers of South Hwanghae Province, who increased the wheat cultivation area by 10,000 hectares compared to last year, have completed the wheat and barley harvest ahead of the deadline despite the weather conditions that are unfavorable for this year's grain harvest.

The agricultural sector workers of the plan, who realized that in order to bring about fundamental innovation in farming, all farms had to rise up together, learned from the experiences of units that had increased yields per piece of information in low-yield areas, and at the same time, they searched for ways to safely farm, even by visiting remote fields one by one, and stubbornly implemented them.

In order to maximize the yield and grain quality, various growth regulators and nutritional enhancers including phytocin were actively introduced and the cultivation area of high-yield varieties was increased. As a result, many fields where superior varieties were introduced, including the 7th and 8th working groups of Samjigang Farm in Jaeryong County and the 1st working group of Eup Farm in Gangryong County, achieved an average yield of 1.5 to 2 tons more per hectare than the previous period.

In South Pyongan Province, the wheat cultivation area has significantly increased, so the role of military agricultural machinery workshops has been strengthened and the proportion of mechanization in agricultural work has been increased, resulting in results in grain harvesting and threshing.

In Daedong-gun, Mundeok-gun, and Jeungsan-gun, in relation to the early arrival of the rainy season, they focused on drying and storage management of crops, such as manufacturing mobile grain dryers with high drying capacity and constructing practical roof-type grain drying facilities, to ensure that not a single grain, which was worked so hard to grow, was lost or spoiled.

Rather than increasing the yield per information in a few specific fields, we focused on raising the average harvest in each region and unit, and as a result of intensifying scientific and technological guidance according to the farming process of farms with unfavorable farming conditions or low productivity, the national grain production plan was carried out to over 130%.

The rural areas of North Hwanghae Province also had an unprecedentedly good harvest.

The province actively generalized the experiences of farms that had high yields in all-grain farming in the past period, organized and implemented advanced farming technology dissemination projects in a practical manner, and scientifically implemented fertilization management to increase the yield and grain quality.

In farms in cities and counties including Sariwon-si, Rinsan-gun, Seohung-gun, and Eunpa-gun, the harvest season for each field was set correctly and full operation of agricultural machinery was guaranteed, bringing forward the end of the wheat and barley harvest season.

In North Pyongan Province, South Hamgyong Province, etc., we strictly conducted a summary of the daily plan implementation to ensure that the expected harvest was the same as the actual harvest, and devised measures to promptly correct any deviations arising in farming work, thereby completing the grain harvest on time.

In Pyongyang and Nampho, where wheat was planted as the main crop and a bountiful autumn was enjoyed every night, the legitimacy of our Party's new agricultural policy to boldly change crop distribution was proven through practice by completing autumn harvesting, threshing, drying, and purchasing in the shortest period of time.

As grain production structures and farming methods changed significantly nationwide and wheat production grew rapidly, multi-harvesting units continued to increase, bringing about remarkable changes in the history of socialist rural construction in our country.

664 farms, including 34 cities and counties including Deokcheon-si, Rinsan-gun, Jeongpyeong-gun, and Mundok-gun, and Mangyongdae Namsae Farm in Mangyongdae-gu and Solbat Farm in Geumya-gun, have honored themselves as high-yield counties and high-yield farms, and the number of high-yield work teams and high-yield sub-teams has also increased rapidly.

Even in farms where average yields could not be expected due to land conditions, climate influences, etc., high yields per hectare were achieved. This was the result of dedicated struggles with the conviction that a high yield would definitely be achieved if farmers believed in the legitimacy of the party's policies and put their sincerity into each field with a patriotic spirit.

The perspectives of agricultural workers and laborers who used to think of wheat farming as a side job have completely changed, and they are finding even a single acre of empty land to turn into wheat fields. Scientific wheat cultivation methods and technologies are being established all over the country, and the yield per hectare continues to increase. This clearly demonstrates that our Party's new agricultural policy is taking deep root in the consciousness and lives of farmers.

In the process of achieving satisfactory harvests by tenaciously pushing forward with wheat farming in rural areas across the country over the past four years, the confidence and enthusiasm in the hearts of agricultural workers that they can achieve any grain production target if they follow the Party's policies have multiplied by a hundredfold.

All agricultural workers and laborers are not satisfied with the achievements they have made and are spurring the struggle to occupy the grain highlands this year set by the Party with a single-minded determination of loyalty and patriotism to further strive to implement the Party policy of ensuring an overwhelming share of rice and wheat in grain production.

Contact between North Korea and the United States is merely a "hope" for the United States.
Kim Yo-jong's speech as deputy director of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea
A White House official recently stated that the president has stabilized the Korean Peninsula and achieved the first summit-level agreement on denuclearization through three summits with North Korea during his first term, and that he remains open to dialogue with the North Korean leader to achieve complete denuclearization of the North.

We do not wish to attach any significance to the United States' unilateral assessment of the last North Korea-US dialogue.
However, it is important to remember that 2025 is not 2018 or 2019.
Acknowledging the stark fact that our country's irreversible nuclear status and capabilities, as well as the geopolitical environment, have fundamentally changed, must be the prerequisite for predicting and thinking about everything going forward.
No one can deny reality, nor should anyone be mistaken about it.
Any attempt to deny our country's status as a nuclear state, which was established with the existence of a strong nuclear deterrent and established as the supreme law by the unanimous will of the entire Korean people, will be thoroughly rejected.
The Democratic People's Republic of Korea is open to any option to defend its current national status.

There should be a minimum level of judgment to recognize that it is not beneficial for either country for the two countries with nuclear weapons to move in a confrontational direction, and if so, it would be good to seek other avenues of contact based on such new thinking.
I do not want to deny that the personal relationship between our head of state and the current US president is not bad.
However, if the personal relationship between the leaders of North Korea and the US comes into conflict with the goal of achieving denuclearization, it can only be interpreted as mockery of the other party.
If the United States fails to accept the changing reality and clings to its past failures, the North Korea-US meeting will remain nothing more than a "hope" for the United States.

An eternally beautiful hymn to women in the socialist garden
As we enter a new era of endless transformation under the wise leadership of the great Party Central Committee, and as we mark the seventy-ninth anniversary of the promulgation of the Gender Equality Act, women's songs resonate throughout the country.
The famous songs of the era, born to convey the love of the peerless great men who made this land a beautiful flower garden of respect for women, actively encourage the patriotic struggle of our women who, through their sincere efforts, are truly contributing to the prosperity of our country.

From the very beginning of his revolutionary journey, the great leader Comrade Kim Il Sung devoted all his heart and soul to the liberation of women. Despite his busy schedule of leading the construction of a new fatherland after liberation, he drafted and promulgated the Gender Equality Act for the first time in history, creating a model for the times in resolving women's issues.
Thanks to the warm love of a great man, we women, who had been wandering in the midst of feudal shackles and social inequality, were finally able to find true dignity and rights.

The lyrics and melody of "Women's Song," which capture the joy and delight of our women overflowing in our liberated homeland, are a song that symbolizes the birth of a new life for Joseon women who had to accept all kinds of humiliation and contempt as their fate for a long time.
The women of this country, who felt that the embrace that gave them a beautiful future was precious and that they could not live a single moment without it, sent their beloved children and husbands to the front lines for their precious country and vigorously waged a wartime production struggle, contributing to the victory in the war. These wartime songs, such as “Mother’s Song” and “Our Lord Has Become a Hero,” still tell us today about this.

Songs were created one after another to capture the patriotic spirit of our women, who left a distinct mark on the prosperity of the fatherland during every period of revolutionary development, including the period of the Chollima upsurge.
Songs such as “We Are the Women Builders of Socialism” and “When We Blossom as Virgins” eloquently show how our women have grown into Chollima riders and a powerful force for revolution and construction in the era of creation and transformation.
“Heart of the Rose of Sharon” and “Song of the Female Coastal Artilleryman” are also widely known songs among our people, filled with the endless longing and unforgettable memories of the great General Kim Jong Il, who devoted special care to helping the female soldiers grow into female revolutionaries who would shine in their time.

The extraordinary honor of the wives of military officers, who have steadfastly walked the path of defending the country and patriotism and loyalty alongside their husbands who took up arms at the forefront of a great era, is reflected in songs such as “I am a Military Officer’s Wife” and “The Soldiers Call Me Mother.”
Songs such as “Women Are Flowers,” “Please Love,” “Our Housewife,” and “Our Daughter-in-Law,” which overflow with passionate affection for women who add a fragrant fragrance to our lives as wonderful mothers and loving wives, were a blessing from the times to women across the country who built harmonious socialist families with the love and devotion unique to Korean women.

Songs like “Mother” and “I Love Mother”, which encapsulate the fervent wishes of children for the health and happiness of mothers who devote their lives to the prosperity of the fatherland in the new era of all-round national revival, and the boundless gratitude of the entire country’s people to the Party for raising true and noble mothers, also prove that the status of our women is shining even brighter at the highest level by holding respected Comrade Kim Jong Un in high esteem as a great father.
These songs of praise for women, which eloquently praise the immense pride and honor of women across the nation who enjoy fulfilling lives in the bosom of peerless great men, will add boundless vitality and energy to our revolutionary ranks and resonate endlessly throughout the sun-drenched landscapes of our homeland, year after year.

Pyongyang Nursing Home, a haven for the elderly
On the banks of the scenic Taedong River in Pyongyang stands the Pyongyang Nursing Home, a Joseon-style building.
Nursing homes are equipped with all the necessary conditions to ensure that the elderly can live out their remaining years in good health, enjoy themselves, and live comfortably.

The Pyongyang Nursing Home bears the immortal footprints of Comrade Kim Jong Un , who devoted his life and soul to providing better living conditions for the elderly.

The respected Comrade General Secretary personally initiated the construction of the Pyongyang Nursing Home and resolved all issues arising during the construction, from design to securing materials.
Comrade General Secretary , who visited the newly built Pyongyang Nursing Home in early August 2015, said that he was very happy that, in keeping with the will of the great leader Comrade Kim Il Sung and the great leader Comrade Kim Jong Il, a palace-like shelter had been provided for the elderly where they could live happily without any worries or concerns . He stressed that we must always pay attention to the elderly and take good care of them so as to thoroughly and accurately implement the policy of protecting the elderly put forward by the great leader and the great general .

<Under the meticulous care of our party and state, the nursing home residents are living happy, healthy lives.

In accordance with the national security measures, food, medicine, clothing, etc. are being supplied to the patients, and comprehensive medical checkups for them are also being conducted normally at hospitals including Ryugyong Dental Hospital, Ryugyong Eye Hospital, and Kim Man-yu Hospital.
The nursing home staff, doctors, and cooks take care of the patients as if they were their own children, and the cute children from the orphanage also visit from time to time to dance and sing to the elderly people, making them happy.

The nursing home residents enjoy tending to the flowers and fruit trees planted in the nursing home's garden, and this has become a part of their emotional lives.
The nursing home residents here all say that this nursing home, overflowing with the affection of close family members, is the best home in the world. (End)

Dear Comrade Kim Jong- un toured the Sinchon Class Reeducation Center together with leading officials of the Party, government, and military agencies.
(Pyongyang, July 26, Korean Central News Agency)

Comrade Kim Jong Un, General Secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and Chairman of the State Affairs Commission of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, toured the Sinchon Class Education Center, a stronghold of anti-imperialist class education, on July 24.

In attendance were members of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea , leading cadres of the Party, government, and military organs, as well as provincial party secretaries and leading officials of ministries and central agencies.

Comrade Kim Jong- un toured several places, including the exhibition halls of the Sincheon Class Education Center, the tombs of the Four Hundred Mothers, the tombs of the Baekdul Children, the military air-raid shelter, and the gunpowder warehouse.

Comrade Kim Jong Un, while looking at the exhibits and traces that still echo the bloody cries of that tragic era, said that the heartbreaking deaths and harsh sufferings our people were forced to endure during the three years of war could never be erased or forgotten, no matter how much time passes or how many generations change.

Comrade Kim Jong Un said that if the work to strengthen anti-imperialist class education is delayed or neglected even for a moment, people's revolutionary consciousness and class consciousness will be paralyzed and the target of the revolution and the view of the main enemy will become blurred, and he emphasized that since the revolution is by no means something that can be completed in one or two generations but is a long-term cause that continues from generation to generation, the issue of firmly carrying on the baton of the class struggle is a crucial and urgent task directly related to the fate of the country and the future of the revolution.

Comrade Kim Jong Un said that as our-style socialism steadily advances and the spirit of revival overflows in this land, we must never forget the heartbreaking lessons engraved in Sinchon, that this is a bloody trace and a history of suffering that can never be erased, and that the Sinchon class education system is the totality that intuitively shows us why we must become strong and must be strong.

Comrade Kim Jong Un said that our people did not yield to the enemy's barbaric atrocities and tyranny butshouted "Long live the Workers' Party of Korea !" even in the face of death, and that it was precisely because of such a strong and indomitable people that we could achieve a great victory in the most brutal war unprecedented in the history of world wars and overcome all the challenges of history and come this far today. He stated that in order not to be forced into the Sinchon tragedy again, we must possess a powerful force that the enemy fears and hold fast to the iron principle that an independent life and future lie on the path of fully developing the strongest self-defense capabilities.

Comrade Kim Jong Un said that the history and traditions of the great victory in the war can be firmly carried forwardas the unique national style of our country when our people and People's Army officers and men are vigorously prepared as guardians of the revolution and vanguard fighters of the class who are always aware of their class roots in the midst of the fever of class education, and he emphasized the necessity of further strengthening class education in the present period and set forth various tasks.

Comrade Kim Jong -un met with the Honorary Director of the Ju Sang-won, who has been guarding the class education camp for decades as an experiencer and witness of resentment.

Comrade Kim Jong Un expressed his conviction that instructors in the class education sector, who are advocates and propagandists of our Party's revolutionary ideology, should always be aware of the importance of their duties and that they will continue to firmly defend the vanguard of class education in the future, and took a meaningful commemorative photo with the workers, instructors, and employees of the Sinchon Class Education Center.

The leading cadres of the Party, government, and military organs have firmly resolved to fulfill their important mission and duty in the responsible work of strengthening our revolutionary and class positions in every way possible, firmly emphasizing the philosophy of class warfare further instilled by Comrade Kim Jong Un.

Dear Comrade Kim Jong Un visited the rear base of the People's Army unit and learned about the state of catfish farming in rice paddies.
Comrade Kim Jong Un , General Secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and Chairman of the State Affairs Commission of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, visited the rear base of a People's Army unit that had achieved great success in implementing the Party's policy of encouraging rice paddies and fish farming on July 24 and learned about the actual situation.

He was accompanied by leading officials of the party, government, and military agencies, including members of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea, and secretaries of provincial party committees.
This rear base, upholding the Party's policy of encouraging rice paddies and deepening its research projects, not only produced over 70 tons of catfish per hectare by significantly reducing the feed unit while increasing the growth rate compared to industrial aquaculture methods, but also achieved the result of harvesting over 10 tons of rice per hectare in low-yield rice paddies without using any fertilizers or pesticides.

Comrade Kim Jong Un looked with satisfaction at the delightful sight of catfish swarming in every rice paddy field and highly praised the fact that the unit, which was not a specialized catfish factory, took the first step with only a few workers and their families and combined scientific research and production practice on rice paddy fish farming in a short period of three years, thereby confirming economic effectiveness and scientific and technological guarantees.

Comrade Kim Jong Un specifically learned about the rice paddies catfish farming method and experience created by this unit, and said that in order to cultivate catfish in rice paddies, it is necessary to carefully select suitable sites by considering water resources and water quality conditions, pollution in the surrounding area, water supply and drainage conditions, and soil characteristics, and in particular, he said that it is most important to renovate rice paddies, such as creating fish passageways and puddles, to create conditions favorable for growth.

Comrade Kim Jong Un instructed the accompanying cadres about the benefits of the integrated green cultivation and fish farming system, which is becoming a global trend, and said that in order to make a leap forward in this field, we must not stop at introducing the achievements and experiences of individual units, but establish a scientific theory on our own method of rice paddies and fish farming and standardize and normalize it.
Comrade Kim Jong Un heard a report from the local workers that starting this year, they have set up a seedling farm and are producing 2 million baby catfish on their own and sending them to military units and other units, and that the wheat planted as a forerunner yields 7 tons per hectare, green garlic 30 tons per hectare, rice yields 10-12 tons per hectare, so that 50-60 tons are produced from 5 hectares of rice paddies, and catfish yields 60-70 tons per hectare, so that 300-350 tons are expected to be produced. He encouraged them by saying that they have created a practical example in introducing organic farming through fish farming, which our Party values.

Comrade Kim Jong Un gave special thanks to this unit, saying that these workers who accept the Party's policies as truth and belief and bring about practical results in improving the lives of soldiers and the people are true revolutionaries and patriots.
Comrade Kim Jong Un emphasized the importance of ensuring that all leading officials at all levels possess extensive knowledge of rice paddies and fish farming, and instructed them to actively promote methodological studies and organizational work to expand and introduce our own green cultivation and fish farming methods established by the local workers.

The "Best Results" Brought About by Pro-Americanism
The full text of the article “The Best Outcome of Following the US” by international affairs critic Lee Cheol-hyeok is as follows.
On July 27, European Commission President Ryan met with the US President at Turnberry Golf Club in Scotland and announced a framework agreement between the EU and the US on tariff issues.

According to him, the United States would maintain a 50% tariff on EU steel and aluminum products and impose a 15% tariff on EU products, while the EU would purchase US$750 billion worth of US liquefied natural gas and crude oil, as well as a large amount of US military equipment, and invest US$600 billion in the United States over the next three years.

Regarding this, European Commission President Ryan praised the agreement, saying that it was the “best result” that the EU could achieve under the current circumstances and that it would bring stability to future trade relations between the EU and the United States.

If so, can we say that this agreement has actually brought benefits to the European Union, as Ryan said?
Immediately after the agreement was announced, the United States exclaimed that it had achieved 99.9% of what it wanted.
On the other hand, across the Atlantic, in Europe, gloomy voices from all walks of life are filling the airwaves and the ground.
The French prime minister lamented that today was a "dark day" for the European Union, bowing to American pressure, as an unequal agreement was reached that would impose a 15% tariff on European goods while exempting American goods.

The German Prime Minister, who had insisted on a swift tariff agreement even if it meant making concessions to the United States, also admitted that this agreement would have serious negative consequences for Germany's export-driven economy, while the Italian Prime Minister lamented that the positive aspects of the agreement could only be judged after knowing the details.

Prime Minister Polska expressed concern that the loss his country would suffer from this agreement would amount to more than US$2.1 billion, while Prime Minister Magyar scoffed, saying, “Trump ate Ryan for breakfast,” and Foreign Minister Magyar strongly insisted on the urgent replacement of the EU leadership.

The Chairman of the European Parliament's International Trade Committee expressed strong dissatisfaction, saying that the outcome of this negotiation cannot be said to be a victory for the EU, nor is it a commendable diplomatic achievement. This agreement is not a mutually beneficial trade cooperation, but a unilateral concession by the EU, and does not serve the fundamental interests of Europe. This can be seen as representing the general public sentiment in Europe.

Meanwhile, the German economy, Europe's largest economy, is crying out that the German automobile industry will suffer losses of several billion US dollars every year and that up to 70,000 jobs could be lost in the country due to the US's 15% tariff on European cars.

Meanwhile, a Western economic analysis agency predicted that the EU's GDP would decrease by 0.5% due to this tariff agreement.
The European media is now pouring out harsh criticism every day, saying that this agreement is a painful defeat for the European Union that clearly reveals its incompetence and incompetence.
As the media and experts are commenting, it is clear as day that the economic burden of this tariff agreement will be borne entirely by European consumers, and that this will make it even harder for residents who are already struggling to make ends meet.

This tariff agreement between Europe and the United States, characterized by inequality and humiliation, is not the result of imbalances in trade relations or tariff disputes between the countries, but rather the inevitable product of Europe's deeply ingrained and habitual policy of extreme blind faith in the United States and subservience.
It is no coincidence that an American media outlet, with a mixture of sympathy and ridicule, suggested that Europe should rebuild its strategic thinking and learn to protect its rights, saying that Europe's "devotion" to the United States has brought misery to the continent.

Within Europe, there are now belated voices calling for Europe to come to its senses and reduce its military and technological dependence on the United States, calling this agreement a "humiliation for the European Union and a reflection of the imbalance of power."
The European Union must now realize that its dependence on the United States is fundamentally undermining its international standing.

A bad habit born of ingrained arrogance
(Pyongyang, August 11, Korean Central News Agency)
The United States recently decided to withdraw from the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization.
The U.S. State Department has accused UNESCO of promoting anti-Israel behavior within the organization, claiming that it fuels social and cultural divisions and is contrary to U.S. interests.
The US withdrawal decision is said to take effect at the end of December 2026.

This is not the first time that the United States, which has weighed UNESCO's activities based on its own selfish goals, has withdrawn from the organization.
The United States has already withdrawn from the organization twice before.
In 1984, the United States withdrew from UNESCO, labeling it a “politicized organization” and a “bureaucratic organization that only spends money,” but returned in 2003, nearly 20 years later.
In 2011, the United States stopped paying its dues to UNESCO, with the aim of creating financial difficulties for the organization after Palestine was accepted as a member state.
Then, the United States withdrew from the official organization in 2018 after failing to pay its membership dues for a long time.
The United States, which returned to the organization in 2023, failed to correct its past evil practices and began to abuse its power again. When this failed, it declared its withdrawal for the third time in just two years.

The United States' recent withdrawal announcement is a continuation of its ingrained arrogance.
The United States has long been foolishly delusional about hegemony, and has been brazenly pretending that without it, international organizations and treaties would not exist.
In numerous international treaties and organizations, including the UN's Arms Trade Treaty, the Paris Agreement on Climate Change, and the World Health Organization, the United States has acted unilaterally and arbitrarily, and has later stopped paying its dues or withdrew.

The American gangster logic is that everything must be subservient to their interests, and if not, there is no need for international organizations or treaties.

The UNESCO Director-General asserted, "This announcement from the United States is not surprising. It was expected. UNESCO is prepared for this." Now, voices are growing louder among UNESCO member states, condemning the US withdrawal as an arrogant and disrespectful act and demanding that the US never be accepted into UNESCO again. (End)

Projects to revitalize the streets and villages of Pyongyang
According to the Rodong Sinmun, projects are underway in several districts of Pyongyang to transform the streets and villages.
In the Rakrang district, a road spanning several hundred meters from the bottom of Jeongbaek Bridge was paved, a green space measuring 18,000 square meters was created in the Dongsan 2-dong district, and roads along the railroad tracks were reorganized.
In the Daedonggang district, a project was carried out to resurface the roads and install new streetlights along Tapje Street, as well as to transform the appearance of surrounding residential areas and public buildings.
In Sadong District, the goal of making the roads and walking paths within the district into models and standards was set and achieved.
Projects are also underway in other districts to create distinctive landscapes and renovate parks and amusement parks. (End)

Opening of equipment assembly plants in various regions
New equipment assembly plants have been established in several regions to contribute to the implementation of local development policies.
As a result, not only was it possible to specialize in the assembly and installation of equipment to be installed in local industrial plants, but a guarantee was also established to independently produce general machinery, pipeline network production, and equipment such as pushcarts and workbenches.
Several units, including the Sariwon Equipment Assembly Plant and the Cheongjin Equipment Assembly Plant, are expanding their performance by developing their own equipment manufacturing and assembly capabilities. (End)

Also, you have the unelected virago who is the head of government of the european union screaming at a protestor that "you would be arrested if you were in ruzzzzzzzia!!!" while police was arresting him, but in Finland.

I'm sure there's lots of petty crime n stuff in the DPRK, it's a very poor country and despite appearences government oversight can be lacking just due to the economic limitations, black markets are a big problem for them for instance. But in a sense you are correct of course that the social fabric of their society is much more socialized and collective than in our own, you're probably less likely to run into that kind of stuff overtly, but don't forget that it's a third world country under extremely heavy sanctions, there's only so much their system can do y'know

It's called democratic centralism. You don't have to like the way they've done things but it's fucking worked.
Oh, this is even fucking 28North BTW:
<The meeting also confirmed that the WPK continues to gather opinions from the grassroots level, at least to a certain extent, by holding sector-specific study and consultative meetings. The emphasis on this bottom-up approach is one of the distinguishing characteristics of North Korea under Kim Jong Un, and the North has consistently implemented this practice even during the pandemic.
>Local elections to provincial (municipal), city (district) and county people’s assemblies were initially scheduled for this summer but were postponed until late November to await a revision of local electoral law. The Supreme People’s Assembly (SPA) propagated the new law at the end of August. It is far from clear, but the result apparently allows, in certain cases, two candidates—both endorsed by the DFRK—to run against each other. They are supposed to differ from each other in field of work, workplace, professional rank and/or gender, presenting voters seemingly with a choice.

Students from the Revolutionary Academy enjoyed a fun day at the Wonsan Kalma Coastal Tourist Area.
The Wonsan Kalma Coastal Tourist Area, which promotes the unique charm of our country's premier coastal attraction and presents a spectacle of new civilization and new welfare, was filled with the laughter and romance of the Revolutionary Academy students.

As a loving and caring father to the children of revolutionaries, the respected Marshal Kim Jong Un, who gives them all the best and most wonderful things in the world , took kind measures to ensure that the children of Mangyongdae Revolutionary School, Chilgol Revolutionary School, Nampho Revolutionary School, Saenal Revolutionary School, Donghae School and Sohae School could fully enjoy a pleasant cultural and emotional life through coastal tourism activities.

The students from Mangyongdae Revolutionary School and Chilgol Revolutionary School, who arrived at the Wonsan Kalma Coastal Tourist Area on the 9th, were warmly welcomed by the local staff and employees.

The dazzling scenery of the coastal tourist city, which is a harmonious blend of beauty and art, along with the Galma Peninsula, famous for its beautiful seaside scenery, aroused the children's admiration and led them into a world of endless joy and romance.

The scenery of the scenic spot was unique as children took pictures of themselves swimming in the blue waters of the East Sea, enjoying a ride on a high-speed cruise ship, riding a motorcycle or playing volleyball on the silver sands, and being completely absorbed in the atmosphere of the coast.

The exhilarating feeling of using the colorful water play equipment in each of their different ways naturally led to endless exclamations at the Myeongsa Ship-ri Outdoor Water Playground.

The arcade was also bustling with children who were so absorbed in the exciting entertainment that they lost track of time.

Even as the night deepened, the coastal tourist area, with its enchanting night view, was filled with the cheerful laughter and happy songs of children.

It was a meaningful birthday celebrated at a coastal tourist site with warm congratulations from volunteers and comrades, and the kind hospitality and service received wherever they went left precious memories for the children.

The joyful days spent at the world-renowned cultural resort built by the Mothers' Party were days when the children felt the growing bond between parents and children more deeply. They also fueled their aspirations to love and glorify their homeland, which will become even more dazzling and brilliant as the exemplars of civilization's revival. (End)

They uncritically swallow and regurgitate western propaganda against the DPRK. It's not surprising as it is one of the most misrepresented and demonized countries on earth, precisely because they do something different.

In essence people get triggered because the existance of the DPRK stands in heavy contrast to the ideology of our ruling class and thus the ideology of a lot of people

TRVKE.
All those opinionated people, all those vocal experts on Norfkoreeah here, Norfkoreeah there don't know crap and they really should start caring about the situation where they live, their town, their region, their country.
You could love it. You could hate it. You could like it. You could dislike it. I don't care. I only care nobody has actually tried to pull a Yugoslavia, a Somalia, an Afghanistan, an Iraq, a Libya, a Syria on them not because they didn't want to, but just because the DPRK is in a position to fight back and make them pay what they deem an untolerable price and they know it very well. And that means the DPRK has been doing something right for many decades, while many others have since bitten the dust.
Who cares about KJU being fat, what's his Beloved Daughter real name or age, how much influence his sister has or whatever. What really matters is a bunch of hypersonic IRBMs are going to pulverise every Burger military facility in the South, in Japan, in Okinawa, in Guam and even farther in a matter of minutes if some dickhead in Washington just try to do something funny.

>When Kim attacked in 1950, a South Korean government was in place - but Mr Ahn, like so many North Koreans, believes the South provoked the conflict and that its alliance with Washington prevented reunification.
>Once he was captured, Mr Ahn had several chances to avoid prison - he was asked to sign documents renouncing the North and its communist ideology, which was called "conversion". But he refused.
>"Because I refused to sign a written oath of conversion, I had to endure endless humiliation, torture, and violence - days filled with shame and pain. There's no way to fully describe that suffering in words," he told the crowd that had gathered near the border on Wednesday.
>The South Korean government never responded to this particular charge directly, although a special commission acknowledged violence at the prison in 2004. Mr Ahn's direct allegations were investigated by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of South Korea, an independent body investigating past human rights abuses, in 2009, which found that there had been a deliberate effort to force his conversion, which included acts of torture.
>It has long been accepted in South Korea that such prisoners often encountered violence behind bars.
>"Whenever I regained consciousness, the first thing I checked was my hands - to see if there was any red ink on them," Mr Ahn recalled in his July interview.
>That usually signalled that someone had forced a fingerprint onto a written oath of ideological conversion.
>"If there wasn't, I'd think, 'No matter what they did, I won'. And I felt satisfied."

>But Mr Ahn's beliefs have not wavered. He has dedicated the last 30 years of his life to protesting a country that he believes is still colonising South Korea - the US.
>"They say humans, unlike animals, have two kinds of life. One is basic biological life - the kind where we talk, eat, defecate, sleep, and so on. The second is political life, also called social life. If you strip a human being of their political life, they're no different from a robot," Mr Ahn told the BBC in July.
>"I lived under Japanese colonial rule all those years. But I don't want to be buried under [American] colonialism even in death."

Comrade Kim Jong- un 's speech at the national commendation ceremony
Dear Comrade Kim Jong Un delivered a meaningful speech at the ceremony to award state commendations to commanders and combatants of the Korean People's Army's overseas operational units.

The speech is as follows:
Comrades!

Generals, officers, and soldiers!

My beloved comrades!

The moment our Party and government, along with countless families across this country who sent their precious children to battle, have long awaited has finally arrived.

The whole country waited.
This is a moment I myself have been counting down the days until.

I cannot express in words how I feel now, meeting again in such a meaningful setting these great sons, heroes of the nation, who are the pride of our nation and for whom all the people have been waiting.

I express my heartfelt gratitude and the warmest fighting tribute to the commanders and comrades of the overseas operational units who bravely fought as “Koreans” and “Korean People’s Army” even in the haze of gunfire in a foreign land that could determine life or death, and returned proudly with great honor and brilliant military achievements to the fatherland.

Comrades!

I am pleased to announce here today the decree adopted by the Presidium of the Supreme People's Assembly of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea in accordance with the proposal of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea and the Central Military Commission to award the title of Hero of the Republic and other high-level commendations to our military generals, officers, and soldiers who performed immortal feats in overseas operations.

This is the first commendation for overseas combat veterans who are the excellent sons of the Korean people and great representatives of the honor of the fatherland.

Our Party Central Committee, with the desire to hold high before the fatherland and people the valiant heroes who have performed feats on foreign battlefields while protecting the sacred authority and dignity of the nation, organized a grand ceremony to award state commendations to comrades at the headquarters building of the Party Central Committee so that the entire nation would respect and uphold them.

This is a special and valuable award given by the country and its people to the honorable victors who have achieved great feats that could not have been achieved without bloody struggle .

Comrades, you deserve this honor and the utmost respect.

Since the time our special operations forces were dispatched overseas, I have been receiving frequent reports on their combat operations, and I have been deeply moved by the noble spirit, unparalleled bravery, and costly sacrifices of our officers and soldiers. I have always urged them to commend them greatly upon their return to the homeland after completing their assigned missions.

As I hold this first award ceremony today, I cannot help but feel regret that I cannot present them all together in this glorious place, as I picture the soldiers who are faithfully carrying out their duties and the martyrs who sacrificed their lives, faithfully following the orders of their country.

It breaks my heart and I am saddened by the reality that we can only see the noble figures who sacrificed their precious lives for great victory and glory through photographs on the wall of remembrance.

I can only imagine how wonderful it would be if they were here with us, having met the most glorious eternity in the shining final moments of their own choosing, and left behind in this building a legacy of achievements and biographies that will be passed down to future generations.

I wanted to warmly embrace all my comrades, for whom I prayed for their safety every moment of every day, and I wanted to personally award hero medals to those who braved the flames carrying the glorious flag, but I am so frustrated that I cannot do so.

Standing before the bereaved families of the fallen soldiers, I am at a loss for words to express the regret and sorrow I feel for not being able to protect the precious sons who trusted us with their lives, their young lives still so young.

I would like to take this opportunity to express my deepest condolences to the bereaved families of the martyrs who sacrificed their noble lives while participating in overseas military operations, and I propose that we all meditate in prayer for their eternal life.

All of our veterans are great men, great heroes, and great patriots.

Through their steadfast struggle and noble sacrifice, the veterans of overseas operations have achieved great feats that will be remembered in history for the eternal prosperity and strength of our country.

Comrade Kim Jong Un proudly stated that the victory achieved by the war veterans was a great feat that firmly defended the great honor of the Korean People's Army that must never be tarnished and provided a firm guarantee for the existence and development of our state, and that it was a victory that would be recorded as a miracle in the history of our military founding and the anti-imperialist revolutionary struggle, and at the same time, it was an event in the history of world war that re-established the logic of a strong nation that had been passed down for thousands of years.

Comrade Kim Jong Un said that the combat activities of overseas operational units representing the armed forces of our Republic in battlefields where the world's attention is focused have fully demonstrated the might of the heroic Korean People's Army, which has achieved victory after victory thanks to its clear superiority in ideology, spirit, and Juche-oriented strategy and tactics, and continued as follows:

What I value most and find most satisfying is that the reputation of the Korean People's Army, known for its invincible victories, has been subjected to the strictest verification in its 70-year history, and the reality of our military's thorough preparation for war has been clearly confirmed.

The key to preparing for war and ensuring victory is to break the enemy's will to fight.

It has now become an established fact that any country's army that faces our army will not be able to avoid the fate of Mujugohon.

Although they fought in a foreign land and the battle they won was outside their own territory, it can be said that the comrades built a high wall of defense over their homeland.

In this sense, the achievements of our comrades are more valuable and precious than the victory in the war fought on our land.

Today's award ceremony is a valuable expression of gratitude and appreciation from our Party, state, and people for the historic feat of perfectly executing the political decisions made by the Party and government for the fate and future of the fatherland and upholding the great honor that all generations of the Republic have built up and upheld for decades.

Comrades!

In this liberated territory, where gunfire raged, traces of fierce battles will soon disappear, and everything will soon be transformed, but the memories of our soldiers' outstanding heroism and noble sacrifice can never be erased or forgotten.

Its greatness and immortality are vividly reflected here in our homeland, thousands of miles away from the battlefield.

The reason we reverently recall the spiritual world of the comrades who contributed to the liberation of the Kursk Territory is because the noble fighting spirit of the heroes we have held so high has become the spirit of all soldiers in the overseas operational units.

The heroism of our overseas operational units, which aroused both envy and concern in many countries, was not limited to a few specific heroes.

In overseas military operations, hundreds of thousands of heroes emerged, surpassing Lee Su-bok, Kang Ho-young, and Jo Gun-sil.

Honestly, I was surprised before the world was surprised.

Whether they were military commanders, political workers, military personnel, interpreters, or security personnel, no matter who they were or what the circumstances, they all fought bravely as one, as one body.

There were no limits to the heroism and sacrifice displayed by rank or age, and there was no distinction between career and record.

The fact that military officers in their 30s and 40s, who went beyond the common belief that the age to block a fireball was 18, stood at the forefront and blocked the enemy's point of contact with their bodies, and did not hesitate to choose the path of self-destruction that would leave no body behind, willingly blocking the bullets flying towards their commanders, gave me a strong shock.

Look at the memorial wall erected here in the Party Central Hall.

So many of our officers, so handsome and handsome, rushed forward to sacrifice themselves and meet a heroic end.

These are truly heroes among heroes, and the overseas operations force should be called a hero unit.

The actions of individual heroes that we once held up as models have now developed into mass movements.

If during the three years of war 70 years ago, about 600 heroes were produced nationwide, then in the overseas military operations carried out by our republic's armed forces, an entire military group became heroic and accomplished in just over six months.

The fundamental secret to the victorious conclusion of this overseas military operation lies not in the exploits of a few outstanding soldiers or heroes, but in the thoroughly popular character of heroism, and in the fact that a noble and beautiful spiritual and moral character firmly dominated the ideological sentiments of all the soldiers of the overseas operation unit.

The thoroughness in executing orders, which is the essence of a soldier, the passion and dedication of patriotism and camaraderie, were all the same, and even when facing the end of life, they were all equally admirable in their morality, knowing how to be faithful to their duty and make choices that were upright in their conscience.

With these extraordinary mental qualities, you comrades have shown the world what makes our army so strong and what are the fundamental factors that ensure its victory in any battle.

This is an event that clearly engraved the concept of a strong army and the law of victory in the history of the times.

I am sure.

No matter which branch or unit of our army had participated in this war, they would have fought like comrades and would have recorded military exploits that would stand alongside the heroic feats of their comrades.

It is my greatest joy and satisfaction to have reconfirmed through you, my comrades, the high level of spiritual and moral character of all the soldiers, and it is the pride and honor of the Workers ' Party of Korea and the government of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea to have such an army as the pioneers and guardians of their revolutionary cause.

As always, our military continues to live up to its honorable calling as a symbol of the heroic Korean people and a representative of the great Korean people.

A nation protected by a heroic army will forever be strong, and the great cause of advancing with a heroic army in the vanguard will be invincible.

Today's award ceremony has special meaning and weight because it strengthens this conviction.

On this meaningful occasion, I, on behalf of the Party and the Government, once again extend my heartfelt thanks and a militant salute to the soldiers of the overseas operational units who, through fierce battle fire, upheld the Party and the Fatherland's trust in our army and, with their unparalleled heroic fighting spirit and immortal exploits, have brought great honor to the Korean People's Army .

And on this occasion, I would like to send to our brave veterans the words I have recited in my heart a hundred times.

Because of our comrades, because of the heroic soldiers like you who stand guard, this country remains unshaken.

Comrades!

Our Party will unfailingly seek out the military achievements of overseas combat units, etched in red blood on every battlefield in foreign lands, and hold them high before their parents, wives, and children, the nation, the people, and future generations.

We will tell the people, the soldiers of the People's Army, their children and future generations about all the precious combat experiences our comrades gained through bloody struggles, about their true camaraderie and absolute love for their country, about the pain of sacrifice they had to endure while swallowing tears of blood and the joy of the priceless victory they achieved in return, and about the beautiful life they lived, brimming with optimism as they envisioned the future.

In a corner of the capital, a battle memorial and a battle monument will be built to forever commemorate the exploits of the great veterans, and the entire nation will forever revere and learn from the noble spirit and spirit of these heroes.

Motherland will bestow the highest and brightest honor upon all soldiers of overseas operational units, and will also place on the podium of glory the parents who raised their children well and generously dedicated themselves to the nation's cause.

Today's awards ceremony is the beginning of it all.

The glorious path pioneered by the warriors and their noble lives on the battlefields of foreign lands will never end, and the bloody battle records engraved with their names will forever shine as the most noble pages of the history of our nation.

Comrades!

It is the unchanging mission of our revolutionary armed forces to suppress all challenges that threaten the nation's sovereignty and security and to militarily ensure peace and development.

On the international stage, a very serious and unpredictable security crisis is being created due to the excessive use of military force by fanatical forces in the heat of war, and our adversaries are making more and more blatant and dangerous attempts to undermine the status and strength of our country, which balances the security situation on the Korean Peninsula.

This environment leaves us no room for complacency and demands a more complete and overwhelming preparedness from our military.

Comrade Kim Jong Un clarified the important tasks that must be carried out in making the armed forces of the Republic the most elite and strongest and in completing war preparations in response to the current situation and the military provocations of the enemy countries.

Comrade Kim Jong Un continued his remarks, saying that he hopes the parents and wives of the soldiers of overseas operational units who are carrying out honorable combat missions in foreign lands at this very moment will bear in mind that they are eagerly awaiting the day when the fatherland will be restored to health.

Our nation will forever be dignified, powerful, and strong thanks to great heroes like you, comrades.

Our army will continue the great history of victory for millennia with its unique loyalty and heroic spirit .

I wish immortal glory to the heroic soldiers of the overseas operational units who have established the highest and brightest peak in the long history of our people's victories and the absolute might of our revolutionary armed forces.

Long live the heroic Korean People's Army! (End)

>Born and raised in Seoul, Suki Kim posed as an English teacher at an all-male university in Pyongyang run by evangelical Christians; she spent six months teaching the 19-year-old sons of North Korea’s ruling class. In this excerpt from her investigative memoir, she describes the experience.

>asked that they read a simple essay from 1997 that quoted President Bill Clinton on how important it was to make all schools wired. The counterparts had approved it because it related to our current textbook theme of college education. I hoped that they would grasp the significance of the Internet and how behind they were. I also gave them four recent articles — from the Princeton Review, the New York Times, the Financial Times, and Harvard Magazine — that mentioned Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook and Twitter. None of the pieces evoked a response. Not even the sentence about Zuckerberg earning $100 billion from something he dreamed up in his college dorm seemed to interest them. It was possible that they viewed the reading as lies. Or perhaps the capitalist angle repelled them.

>The next day, several students stopped by during office hours. They all wanted to change their essay topics. Curiously, the new topics they proposed all had to do with the ills of American society. One said he wanted to write about corporal punishment in American and Japanese middle schools. Another handed me a revised thesis: “Despite the harmful effect of nuclear weapons, some countries such as the United States keep developing nuclear weapons.” A third student wanted to write about the evils of allowing people to own guns so freely, in America. A fourth student asked me which country produced the most computer hackers; he had been taught that it was America. A fifth wanted to change his topic to divorce. There was no divorce in the DPRK, but in America the rate was more than 50 percent, and divorce led to crime and mental illness, according to him. “So what happens when people are unhappy here after being married for a while?” I asked. The student looked at me blankly. Still another student wanted to write about how McDonald’s was horrible. The same student then asked me, “So what kind of food does McDonald’s make?”

in contrast to the Worst Korean plan of sending bloodthirsty marines to Vietnam to rape and murder civilians this Best Korean plan is working much better. Worst Korean troops were known to be somewhat effective but are remembered in Vietnam primarily for their brutality. Best Korean troops will be remembered for generations for their selfless bravery and discipline in combat.

this tbh, she shows up with some shit praising muh tech genius billionaires for her english course (and quite clearly, state multiple time in the article, was trying to illuminate them to the goodness of the capitalist run world they dont know about and try to sneak it into her lessons), and they come back wanting social critique of the usa instead, and she genuinely cant wrap her head around it
also its an university "run by evangelical Christians" that make south korean reactionaries like her come teach, how are you surprised they're not fans of divorce (and why are you assuming its the "ruling class?")
I definitely get the feeling the students perfectly understood what she was doing and were simply pushing back

~~>>2450457~~
they have nukes and a space program, so Im pretty sure they are able to prove theories and conduct research, again she just seem completely unable to grasp people might have a different cultural background and expectation for schoolwork. Like she believes an essay, structured in the way she was taught, is the gold standard of education, like there is no other way to think about the world
its funny, she seems more obsessed about the great leader than they are in the article

>I did not question him further, but I thought I understood
this summarize the feeling I got reading her account. She throw a whole lotta assumptions on them, everything thought through the lenses of 'they're brainwashed", so that she completely fail to grasp them
given she only stayed 6 months, I wonder if she got thrown out or just left
it read mostly like the rest of anti dprk slop propaganda, pretty uninteresting

Respected Comrade Kim Jong Un's remarks to the bereaved families of those who participated in overseas military operations
Dear Comrade Kim Jong- un spoke in front of the bereaved families of the soldiers who participated in overseas military operations.

The words are as follows:

Comrades!

I would like to take this opportunity to say a few words to the bereaved families of the martyrs who sacrificed their noble lives to protect the dignity and honor of our country.

As I encounter you all steadfastly overcoming the unbearable pain of loss, I cannot help but feel a pious and fervent heart.

My heart trembles and I can't seem to get anything done as I think about the bereaved families who were completely unaware of the fate of their beloved children and husbands and were shocked by this unexpected loss.

I once again offer my apologies to all of the bereaved families, feeling regretful that we were unable to bring back our officers and soldiers who fell fighting on foreign battlefields, and that we were unable to protect their precious lives.

When I met the bereaved families at the National Commendation Ceremony, I thought a lot about those who were unable to attend.

So, I have arranged this event today with the hope of meeting with the bereaved families of these heroes again in private, offering them some comfort and alleviating their grief and sense of loss.

I express my deepest condolences to all the bereaved families who have come to this place, where they should be together with their loved ones amidst the blessings of the entire nation, bearing the painful wounds of losing their loved ones.

As we etch the faces and names of our heroes, each one so handsome and charming, on the Memorial Wall, we picture the parents who gave birth to and raised such great sons, and also place alongside them the images of the wives and children they loved so much.

How could such wonderful sons exist without great parents, and how could they be so courageous until the very end if they did not have in their hearts a true love for their parents, their children, and their homeland where they were born?

In the heroic deeds of the heroes who, upholding the orders of their country, charged forward to face death, we witnessed the determined actions that instilled in pure hearts a love for their country and hometown and nurtured them properly. We could vividly feel the caring hands that provided support, strength, and courage during the days of true service.

The reason our army is a heroic army that knows no bounds and fights without knowing the impossible and is sure to win is because they are the sons of the world's most resilient, patriotic, and righteous people, the great heroic people who have shared the destiny of this country through generations of unyielding lives and struggles.

Although they left with their youth and lofty ambitions, their indomitable spirit and revolutionary spirit, which wrote a new chapter in the victory of our nation with their blood and ignited the fierce flames of all-people heroism throughout the country, will live on forever in our hearts.

The Party and the government will honor the heroes respected and upheld by the entire nation, along with the excellent people who nurtured and promoted them. We will do our utmost to ensure that you are the first to experience the beautiful life of the country that the martyrs sacrificed their lives to protect.

Looking at those little ones makes my heart ache and hurt even more.

Our officers left behind those children who were like flesh and blood, and the women they loved.

Our soldiers went, looking into the eyes of a caring mother.

As they faced death, saying their farewells to all they loved, they all left behind a message wishing for the prosperity of their country and Pyongyang, and ended their lives shouting "Long Live the Democratic People's Republic of Korea."

I believe that when they left, they left me not even a short letter, but they left me with their home and their beloved children.

Obviously they left it to me.

That request is not meant to be read in words.

It's not something you hear with your ears.

I heard those requests because I heard them with my heart and with faith.

I will take care of the bereaved families and those children as they wish.

Comrades who were the directors of the Revolutionary Academy were also present.

Our country's leading officials are also here.

We, the nation, and our military will take full responsibility for raising the children left behind by our heroes by sending them to revolutionary schools, and we will raise them as strong and courageous fighters like their fathers , and we will raise them as the backbone of our revolution.

Now, in the Taesong District of Pyongyang, a new street will be built for the bereaved families of the soldiers who, as the song says, left us with their youthful youth shining brightly like new stars. We propose naming the street Saebyeol Street to praise the star-like feats of our soldiers.

And right in front of that, in the most excellent location in the arboretum , we will enshrine the remains of the martyrs and erect an immortal monument to their battle exploits to commemorate the great warriors who protected the tenacity of the Korean people and the dignity and honor of the Korean People's Army .

The whole nation will be able to visit them at any time, remember them, and share in all the glory and joy.

The Party and the state will do their best to help the bereaved families begin a happy life in Pyongyang amidst the respect and admiration of the entire nation.

On behalf of all the officers and men of our armed forces, and in the name of the entire nation, I bow my head once again to those who, while steadfastly overcoming the grief of losing loved ones, esteem, support, and honor the noble lives and final resolve of their children and husbands.

I hope all the bereaved families can quickly overcome today's pain.

How significant are Kim's bowing, anons? I'm lead to believe through popcorn-articles online that bowing is important in korean culture, i would not usually think the leader bows to others, and they are seemingly relatively low bows. I have also never seen a photo of him bowing even mildly to another person before, only statues and so on.
Would it be correct to say Mr Kim is showing a deep act of respect to the people?

US Navy Seals killed three North Koreans in a botched mission to plant a listening device to spy on Kim Jong-un.
The American commandos used submarines to sneak onto a North Korean beach in the dead of night and install equipment to intercept the dictator’s communications, the New York Times reported.

The 2019 mission, carried out by the team that killed Osama bin Laden, was personally signed off by Donald Trump during tense nuclear talks between his administration and North Korea.

It was designed to give the US the upper hand with intelligence but went spectacularly wrong – leaving three civilians dead.

The mission was interrupted by three sailors diving for shellfish, setting off panic among the US soldiers who fired on them and sunk their bodies before aborting.

The mission remains strictly classified but details have emerged amid renewed tensions between Washington and Pyongyang, after Mr Trump accused Kim this week of conspiring with Russia and China against the US.

In 2018, relations between North Korea and the US appeared to be moving towards a reconciliation, with Pyongyang agreeing to suspend nuclear and weapons testing, and the two countries open to negotiations.

With hopes to gain insight into Kim’s thinking, Mr Trump signed off on the intelligence agencies’ proposal to plant a newly developed electronic device within North Korea to intercept his communications.

The mission involved approaching North Korea at night in a giant nuclear submarine, before a crack team of Seals in wet suits and night vision goggles exited in two mini-subs.

The mini-subs would then drop them off around 100 yards from the shore, at which point they would swim up, plant the listening device, and creep back into the water without being detected.

The mini-subs were wet, meaning the commandos would be immersed in freezing waters for two hours on their journey to the target, relying on scuba gear and heated suits to survive.

Special operation missions are usually directed by senior leaders using drones and listening devices in real-time. But in North Korea, any surveillance risked being detected, so the Seals were forced to rely on satellites in orbit and high-altitude spy planes, which produced grainy still images, often with several minutes delay.

They also studied the times of day boats and walkers were most likely to be on the beach.

With communications blacked out, once the commandos entered the mini-subs, they would be on their own.
The team partnered with Seal Delivery Vehicle Team 1, which is well-versed in mini-sub espionage, to carry out the mission, practising first in US waters.

The night was calm and the shore appeared empty as the mini-subs drew closer, but as they touched down onto the seafloor one vehicle continued too far towards land, forcing it to perform a U-turn so it was facing the wrong way.

With the clock ticking, it was decided that the Seals would disembark, and the sub would be reoriented later.

As the doors slid open, the Seals swam out, armed with untraceable weapons and ammunition, their heads bobbing above the surface every few yards to scan their surroundings.

The seals reached the shore thinking they were alone, and began removing their diving gear just a few hundred yards from the target.

Back at the mini-sub, a pilot revved the engine to turn the aquatic vehicle around.

It was at this point that a North Korean fishing boat started to move towards the mini-subs, shining flashlights into the water.

Commandos later speculated the boat may have been missed as they were relying on night-vision goggles, which detect heat signatures.

The Koreans onboard, who it was later concluded had been diving for shellfish, were undetectable in their ocean-chilled wetsuits.

In later debriefings, those who had remained underwater in the mini-sub said that they felt the boat was still a safe distance away.

But for the Seals on shore who had seen the flashlights, they worried their cover had been broken, and faced a critical decision on whether to act.

After a Korean splashed into the sea, and with no way of discussing their next move either with each other or central command, the senior enlisted Seal took aim with his rifle and fired. The other commandos followed suit.

The Seals were forced to abort the mission immediately, as the second they encountered locals their plans became compromised.

Before returning to the mini-subs the team swam to the fishing vessel to ensure the Koreans were dead.

The fishermen had been killed by the rifle fire and the Seals pulled their bodies into the water to hide the evidence.

One told the Times that they punctured the victims’ lungs to ensure they sank.

They found no guns or uniforms, the New York Times reported.

At the mini-sub, they sent a distress signal to the nuclear submarine, which risked detection by manoeuvring into shallow waters to pick up the commandos before scooping out into the open ocean.

The mini-subs used in the mission were launched from and picked up by a larger Ohio-class nuclear-powered submarine
In the immediate aftermath, US satellites are said to have detected a surge in North Korean military activity in the region, but Pyongyang never made any public statements about the incident.

Later that month, a nuclear summit in Vietnam went ahead, but the talks ended with no deal, with the North Koreans resuming missile testing in May.

In the subsequent months, North Korea fired more missiles than in any previous year. Pyongyang has since amassed an arsenal of 50 nuclear warheads, including a number that can be fitted to missiles capable of striking the United States.

It is unclear how much North Korea was able to uncover about the operation, but the revelations risk jeopardising US relations and could potentially provoke a response from the country’s bellicose dictator.

In a statement, a spokesman for the New York Times said the story was in the public interest and that “some sensitive information” that could affect future operations had been withheld.

The newspaper spoke to two dozen current and former officials familiar with the mission who spoke out to highlight that such missions are “exceptionally vulnerable to failure” and there is “often little public accountability”.

The White House was approached for comment.

This is so cartoonishly evil and explains why the negotiations broke down. And I thought it was johnny bolton.

>SEOUL, Sept 5 (Reuters) - U.S. Navy SEALs shot and killed a number of North Korean civilians during a botched covert mission to plant a listening device in the nuclear-armed country during high-stakes diplomatic negotiations in 2019, the New York Times reported on Friday.
>Citing unidentified sources, including current and former military officials with knowledge of the still-classified details, the newspaper said President Donald Trump approved the operation during his first administration, as he was involved in historic talks with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.

>"I don't know anything about it. I'm hearing it now for the first time," Trump told reporters on Friday when asked about the report.
>The civilians appeared to be diving for shellfish when they inadvertently came across the detachment of SEALs as they splashed ashore at night, the Times reported.
>The American forces opened fire, killing all those aboard the small fishing vessel, the report said, without specifying the number of casualties.
>A classified Pentagon review later concluded the killings were justified under the rules of engagement, the report said.

Comrade Kim Jong Un , General Secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and Chairman of the State Affairs Commission of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, met with Comrade Xi Jinping, General Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and President of the People's Republic of China.
The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un, General Secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and Chairman of the State Affairs Commission of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea , met with Comrade Xi Jinping, General Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and President of the People's Republic of China, at the Great Hall of the People on the afternoon of September 4.

Comrade Kim Jong-un was warmly welcomed by Comrade Xi Jinping.

Comrade Kim Jong-un exchanged greetings with Comrade Xi Jinping and took a commemorative photo with the national flags of the two countries in the background.

Comrade Kim Jong Un expressed his gratitude to the Chinese Party, government and people for their sincere and special hospitality to the DPRK delegation and congratulated them on holding the 80th anniversary of the victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War as a grand political festival, saying that this occasion demonstrated China's firm determination to safeguard world peace and clearly demonstrated China's important international status and influence.

Comrade Xi Jinping, on behalf of the Chinese Party, government and people, once again warmly welcomed Comrade Kim Jong Un's visit to the People's Republic of China, and said that Comrade Kim Jong Un's participation in the events commemorating the 80th anniversary of the victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War demonstrated the DPRK's firm will to firmly defend the results of the victory in World War II and served as an important opportunity for further developing the friendly and cooperative relations between the two parties and countries of China and the DPRK.

Comrade Xi Jinping said that China and North Korea are excellent neighbors, excellent friends, and excellent comrades who share the same destiny and help each other, and that the Chinese party and government highly value the traditional China-North Korea friendship and are willing to vigorously safeguard, strengthen, and develop China-North Korea relations.

He said that this position will not change no matter how the international situation changes, and that China, as in the past, will continue to support North Korea in taking a development path suited to its own circumstances and in continuously opening up new phases for the cause of Korean-style socialism.

Comrade Kim Jong Un affirmed that the friendly feelings between the DPRK and China cannot change no matter how the international situation changes, and that it is the firm will of the Workers' Party of Korea and the government of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea to continuously deepen and develop DPRK-China relations, and said that the DPRK will continue to fully and consistently support and encourage the stand and efforts of the Communist Party of China and the government of the People's Republic of China to safeguard the sovereignty, territorial integrity and development interests of the country.

At the meeting, the top leaders of the DPRK and China exchanged candid views on the issue of strengthening high-level exchanges and strategic communication between the Democratic People's Republic of Korea and the People's Republic of China, and informed each other of the independent policy positions maintained by the parties and governments of the two countries in the field of foreign relations.

He also mentioned strengthening strategic cooperation on international and regional issues and protecting common interests.

The talks were held in a warm and friendly atmosphere.

That evening, Comrade Xi Jinping hosted a banquet for Comrade Kim Jong Un. (End)

This is true.
Well, even I as a paleface have experienced some things akin to that. It's more to do with ideology than region (and/or race). Fundamentally, it continuously amazes me how we seem to inhabit different realities. Do we not all inhabit the same world?

Nazis are proudly anti-intellectual, so of course they’re dumb enough to cite social media posts as proof of anything.

Deep down they know that about themselves and can’t stand it, so they project it onto interlocutors that refuse to take them seriously, as a another way for them to play victim.

Eternal socialist policies with a noble view of the people
The true nature of the Republic, which takes selfless service to the people as its core and absolute mission and firmly establishes the foundation of putting the people first and devotion to the people, is also passionately engraved in the people-oriented policies that promote the working people as enjoyers of civilization and happiness and thoroughly direct and subordinate everything to the promotion of their welfare.

Dear Comrade Kim Jong Un has wisely guided all the policies of our Party and the government of the Republic on the path of advance in the new era of the Juche Revolution so that they truly contribute to continuously improving the welfare of the people.

In his talks with leading officials of the Party Central Committee in June and July 2012, the respected Comrade General Secretary emphasized the importance of always thinking about and working to better implement our Party's people-oriented policies to preserve the essence of socialism and improve the people's standard of living, and he clearly indicated the direction and means for accurately implementing socialist policies in numerous immortal classic works.

The respected Comrade General Secretary , who has put forward the task of providing the people with a home for a civilized life as an important task for implementing the people-oriented policies of our Party and state, has put forward the great idea and practical program for the development of architecture with the people-first principle as its fundamental core, and has opened a great era of prosperity for grand construction on this land.

As housing construction to provide the people with a better living environment and conditions is vigorously progressing in the capital and local areas, the 8th Congress of the Workers' Party of Korea established a policy to build 50,000 housing units in Pyongyang, and the 4th Plenary Session of the 8th Central Committee of the Party unfolded a grand blueprint for a new era rural revolution.

In keeping with the noble intentions of the Mother Party, which prioritizes the promotion of the people's lives and health as a national priority, a modern hospital village was built in the Munsu district of the capital.

At the 3rd Plenary Session of the 8th Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea, a policy was established to provide nutritional food, including dairy products, to children across the country at the national expense, which caused great excitement throughout the country.

Thanks to the noble intention of the respected Marshal , who presented the responsibility for and guaranteeing students' necessities as a consistent policy of the Workers ' Party of Korea and an eternal national policy of the Republic , a proud reality has been created where all students and boys across the country wear the school uniforms we made, use "Dandelion" study books and "Sunflower" school supplies, and carry "Pine Tree" school bags.

The “20x10 Policy for Local Development” presented at the 10th Session of the 14th Supreme People’s Assembly in January 2024 is a grand revolutionary program and a huge transformational line to shake off the centuries-old backwardness of local areas, fulfill the long-held aspirations of local people, and bring about a change in the realm of our people’s perception.

Under the wise leadership of the Party Central Committee, which declared the grand local development policy of simultaneous, balanced and rapid development of the entire country, which is the first in the history of our Party and the development path of our Republic, and led it to brilliant success and victory, modern local industrial plants suited to the regional characteristics were built one after another in 20 cities and counties, including Songchon County, Jaeryeong County and Guseong City, and new model bases for marine aquaculture emerged in Sinpo City and Rakwon County.

The respected Comrade General Secretary said that the ideal outcome of local development policy is to develop local areas as well as the capital and fundamentally change the cultural living environment of local people so that the entire country can be unified on a cultural level. He also added the construction of modern hospitals, multi-functional comprehensive service centers, and grain management facilities, and laid out a grand blueprint for their realization.

The past decade, truly etched with dazzling transformations and miracles in the history of the Republic's development, has been a time of passion and joy, marked by the laughter of the people and the chorus of "We Are the Envy of the World," resonating ever louder, alongside the policies of our Party and state, which have steadfastly prioritized the people and ensured that all state affairs are directed toward fulfilling their dreams and ideals.

Our Republic is a true people's country where the people's dreams and ideals are fully realized.
The full text of the personal pen-named essay “Our Republic is a true people’s country where the people’s dreams and ideals are fully realized,” published in the 7th edition of “Democratic Chosun,” is as follows.

Today, a new era of magnificent transformation is unfolding over our homeland, where the people's dreams are becoming reality and the new world of socialist civilization and enlightenment they envisioned is dazzlingly unfolding. The reality of our Republic is that the people's dreams and ideals are being transformed into reality, racing against time, and are being felt on the skin and in the lives of the people.

As the meaningful founding anniversary of the Republic approaches each day, the hearts of all the people across the country are overflowing with great pride and self-esteem in living in a true people's country that enshrines the destiny of the people in its sacred flame and brings forward the dreams, ideals, and bright future of the people into dazzling reality and solid reality.

Dear Comrade Kim Jong- un said:

"The Party and the State serve the people with devotion, and the people entrust their fate and future to the Party and the State, and serve them wholeheartedly. This is the true face of our State, embodying the people-first principle."

The people are the root and foundation of a socialist state, and they are responsible for its development. Only a state that thoroughly adheres to the people's demands and interests, faithfully serves them, and resolutely and splendidly realizes their earnest aspirations, ideals, hopes, and steadfast beliefs can truly be called a people's state.

Many countries today claim to pursue politics for the people, but they fail to become states that truly provide a happy life for their people and allow them to fully entrust their own fate and the future of future generations. Our Republic is the only nation that embraces the people through thick and thin, taking full responsibility for their fate and lives, and upholds selfless service to the people as its unique way of life, turning their ideals and dreams into reality. As proud masters of state and society, our people, enjoying the most authentic and rewarding life, regard their socialist fatherland, where everything serves the masses, as a sanctuary of eternal life and happiness, and they entrust their fate and future entirely to its embrace.

Our republic is a true people's country that protects and cares for the well-being and rights of all its people.

Whether the people's well-being and rights are truly guaranteed is the most crucial and primary question in defining a country's people-centered character and essence. A country that regards its people as heaven and does everything it can to prevent and mitigate any threat to their lives and livelihoods, whether it be war, a health crisis, or a natural disaster, is a truly people's state.

In our Republic, the thorough and practical guarantee of the people's lives, safety, and interests is a top national priority, a task that must be achieved under all circumstances. Our state firmly believes that nothing is more precious and absolute than the people, the foundation of the nation, and nothing is more sacred than their interests. That what is for and about the people is considered the most just, that their demands and interests are given top priority and absolute priority in the formulation of policies and lines, and that all work is conducted based on the reflection and evaluation of the people—this is a wondrous vision that can only unfold in our Republic, which places the people as the foundation of the Party and the state and regards their demands and interests as the starting point and goal of all activities.

It is our nation's unwavering will that we must never allow even a 0.001% concession when it comes to the people's lives, safety, and rights. Our country is fully equipped with powerful self-defense measures to safeguard the lives and dignity of our people, without any omissions or deficiencies. The enactment of our national nuclear force policy has brilliantly accomplished the historic and indispensable task of firmly securing the people's well-being and future. The brilliant victory achieved in the maximum-level emergency quarantine campaign to protect the people's well-being from the global health crisis, and the rise of a century-old creation, a foundation for a civilized life for the people, in the northwestern border of our fatherland, once ravaged by the tyranny of nature, are the noble fruits of the Republic's unwavering will to prioritize the people's lives, safety, and interests above all other economic achievements, dedicating the entire nation's resources to the people.

There are countless countries in the world, but none like ours, where the lives and safety of its people are so thoroughly protected, their sovereignty and rights safeguarded, and where all government affairs are utterly directed and subordinated to the interests of the people. Our fatherland, which provides a secure home and a dignified life for all its people, will forever shine as a nation of the people.

Our Republic is a true foundation for life that protects and fosters the laughter and happiness of all its people.

The laughter and happiness of its people are the touchstones that determine a nation's character. It goes without saying that a nation where the laughter of its people resonates loudly and where a fulfilling and happy life is guaranteed is a truly people's nation.

In our Republic, the people's laughter and happiness are held up as symbols of the socialist system and as the yardstick for determining a powerful nation's status. All state affairs are rigorously directed toward providing the people with substantial welfare and a happier, more civilized life. "Everything for the people, everything based on the people!"—this is the unwavering ideology of our Republic's government, which it upholds without the slightest hesitation or concession. Just looking at the new streets in the capital, the extraordinary rural homes that bring socialist civilization and a happy life to the people, and the beautifully constructed cultural and emotional centers in prime locations across the country, reveals the extent to which our state is devoting all its efforts to promoting the people's well-being. The prosperous and prosperous wealth our nation builds each year for its people, including the coastal tourist area rising from the East Sea's Myeongsa Ship-ri and the ideal fishing village of Rakwonpo, would be unimaginable if economic calculations were the sole focus. This wealth can only be realized in our Republic, which, with its unwavering commitment to the people's well-being and the unwavering commitment to improving their livelihoods, prioritizes it over all else.

There are many countries in the world that tout "material prosperity" and promote the construction of a "welfare state." However, no other country, like our Republic, prioritizes the stability of its people's lives and devotes all its efforts to improving their material well-being. Our nation's unwavering principles and methods of operation are that the painstaking efforts to preserve and nurture the smiles and happiness of its people should never be a temporary measure or a showpiece. Even if other tasks are postponed, policies to improve the well-being of the people are held up as an unwavering revolutionary undertaking and are unfailingly implemented. This reality clearly demonstrates our nation's perspective and stance of selfless service to the people. Because we have a great nation that embraces the people and does not hesitate to make any bold decision, overcome any ordeal without hesitation, and spare no effort unprecedented in history to bring about their laughter and happiness, a world-class power will surely rise on this land where the people's dreams and ideals are realized.

Our Republic is a treasure trove of eternal life, guaranteeing a brighter future for all our people and the happiness of future generations.

A true people's state is a prosperous nation that embraces and takes responsibility for the people's present and future, nurturing their blossoming future. Our Republic prioritizes the work of future generations as its top national priority, establishing and implementing lines and policies with a clear vision for decades and centuries to come. We have amassed the strongest nuclear force capable of permanently ending the decades-long nuclear blackmail of US imperialism, and have achieved epochal transformations that have elevated the Republic's dignity and prestige to the highest levels. We have also unleashed a new era of transformation, with the capital and regions relocated, all for the ultimate purpose of bequeathing to future generations a powerful and prosperous nation, the world's greatest. While there are many nations in the world, our Republic is the only one that prioritizes and consistently implements providing improved childcare conditions and ensuring that children wear school uniforms as a permanent national policy. Under the belief that a single delay in nurturing future generations will retard the nation's progress by ten, even a hundred, steps. Our country, however, has many shortcomings and deficiencies, and there are numerous issues that urgently need to be addressed. However, we prioritize fostering future generations as a task we cannot afford to neglect, a task we must never let down our guard, and we are investing significant resources into it. Rather than viewing everything as inevitable due to difficulties, our nation's unwavering commitment is that the more unfavorable the conditions, the more we must dedicate ourselves to future generations and shower them with unwavering love. For the sake of future generations, this is the fundamental spirit that permeates our national projects and activities.

The reason why our republic today is exalting its dignity and prestige as a true people's state that is fully realizing the people's dreams and ideals is because it holds respected Comrade Kim Jong Un in high esteem.

The grand creative struggle to realize the people's dreams and ideals advances victoriously only under the wise leadership of an outstanding leader . All of the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un's thoughts and actions are consistent with the goal of providing our people with the world's most affluent and civilized life as soon as possible. Comrade Kim Jong Un, who possesses a sublime view of the people that if the people desire it, we should pluck stars from the sky and make flowers bloom even on rocks, and a noble outlook on life that believes he has nothing more to wish for even if his body is scattered like a grain of sand on the path for the people, is the one who continues his tireless journey to fully realize the people's dreams and ideals . Thanks to the wise leadership of the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un , who has a strong determination to achieve whatever the people desire at all costs, has been vigorously leading the struggle to realize it by continuously implementing bold and ambitious plans. On this land, the dreams that the people have long cherished in their hearts are being transformed into reality, and the ideals they have envisioned with conviction are emerging ahead of time as dazzling entities. With the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un, who has opened a new era of comprehensive national revitalization through his seasoned and refined leadership and is bringing forward a brilliant future in which the people's dreams and ideals will fully blossom, our people will soon enjoy unparalleled happiness in a society of ideal people that the world will look up to.

All workers and laborers should deeply cherish the boundless pride of being members of a dignified and powerful nation and the hundredfold confidence in a better tomorrow. They should uphold the ideology and leadership of the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un even more faithfully and quickly build a socialist paradise, our ideal, on this land. www.minju.rep.kp (End)

New forest development at Forestry Joint Enterprise No. 121
According to the Rodong Sinmun, Forestry Enterprise No. 121 has developed a promising new forest in the Cheongsanryeong area.

This rim is the largest of the rims developed by the joint enterprise in recent years.
In mid-May, a survey was conducted on the distribution of trees and the overall terrain of the mountain.
The basic data for design was secured over a period of about 10 days.

Based on this, the joint enterprise promoted projects to develop forest roads, mountain camps, and logging sites tailored to the local conditions and circumstances. The forest roads finally opened amidst the echoes of cars, bulldozers, and tractors.
The workers and the working class here are further spurring the struggle to quickly consolidate preparatory construction and enter production.

The President of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela sent a congratulatory message to Comrade Kim Jong- un
On the 9th, President Nicolas Maduro Moros of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela sent a congratulatory message to Comrade Kim Jong Un, General Secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea, Chairman of the State Affairs Commission of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea and Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.

The celebration is as follows.
On the 77th anniversary of the founding of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, a historical milestone marked by the victory of Juche and the beginning of an era of sovereignty and independence for the Korean people, I extend my sincerest congratulations on behalf of the government and people of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela and myself.

At a time when hegemonic powers were attempting to revive Cold War logic, the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela and the Democratic People's Republic of Korea demonstrated their strength by actively cooperating in the struggle to uphold sovereignty, self-determination, and unity and to defend the inevitably emerging new world order that is multi-centric and multi-polar.

comrades,
On this important day for the precious people of Korea, I would like to once again express the policy will of the Bolivarian government to strengthen not only the fraternal and cooperative relationship with your country, but also our common stance on issues that build peace, international equality, and strengthen the multilateral system.

I once again wish for the prosperity and well-being of the Korean people through you.
I offer my highest respects to Your Excellency.
We will unite and win.

The nation grows brighter through the laughter of future generations, and the Republic's national power grows stronger.
The full text of the personal pen-named article, “The country becomes brighter and the republic’s national power grows stronger through the laughter of future generations,” published in the 14th edition of the Democratic Chosun, is as follows.

What are our Korean revolutionaries fighting for?
For what purpose are we bravely overcoming multiple trials and demonstrating unwavering fighting spirit?
We find the clearest answer to this historical question through the distinct changes that took place in the lives of the people during the 8th term of the Party Central Committee, under the loving policy of our Party for the next generation.

As I reflect on the passionate devotion, effort, and countless other resources our Party has poured into the past five years to nurture and develop the next generation born and raised in this land, the children and young students who will shoulder the future of our country, I cannot help but feel a surge of emotion.

Dear Comrade Kim Jong- un said:
"There is nothing I would regret for our children, the future leaders who will carry our country forward."

To understand what our party has accomplished over the past five years with its sincerity that has made even a stone blossom, we must look to our descendants.
For future generations!
This call, which is like the great motto of our sacred revolution and a slogan that reveals the fundamental purpose of the struggle of the revolutionaries of this country, encapsulates the immortal five-year history of our Party's leadership.

Under the benevolence of Comrade Kim Jong Un, who devoted great effort and energy to the work for future generations with the noble intention that the work for future generations is the most important task of our Party, a new childcare policy was proposed and a fundamental change was made in the work to supply new school uniforms and school supplies to school children across the country. As a result, milk products and nutritional foods were delivered to children every day across the country, and countless touching scenes unfolded of students receiving school uniforms, school supplies and shoes.

The past five years, woven with the traces of our Party's selfless service to safeguard the smiles of future generations and help them blossom even more brightly, will be etched in the annals of our nation as a great epoch in which the nation's outlook brightened and the national power of our Republic was further strengthened.

A policy of love welcomed by the people
You can tell a lot about a country by looking at its children's faces.
When children are full of happiness and smile brightly, the country's appearance also brightens.

Whether a nation prospers or prospers depends on the policies it implements and the governance it pursues for future generations. This is a crucial issue that will determine the strength of the nation not only today, but also 10, 20, and 30 years from now.

In this sense, the past five years are recorded as a significant period in history, a period in which the people welcomed our Party's new policies, our government's communist policies, and the next generation grew up vigorously and our national strength doubled.

Looking back, the past five years have been a time of arduous struggle, overcoming countless unprecedented challenges, including the pandemic, a turbulent period unlike any since the nation's founding. However, during this period, the laughter of our children has grown louder and public support for the Party has strengthened. This, we reflect on, is reflected in the birth of our Party's unparalleled childcare policy.

The Childcare Law of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, adopted at the 6th Session of the 14th Supreme People's Assembly, regulates the establishment of a systematic production and supply system for children's nutritional food, the free and regular supply of nutritional food, including milk products, to all children, and the guarantee of the best childcare conditions.

In recent years, whenever a new law has been enacted in our country, it has garnered the people's full support, approval, and cheers. Among them, the Childcare Act is a code of love that has particularly touched the hearts of all people and made them choke with passion.

Like many important party conferences, the 3rd Plenary Session of the 8th Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea adopted hopeful, optimistic, revolutionary, and offensive decisions in the history of our revolution!

Whenever we recall this important plenary session, the participants are overcome with emotion and unable to calm their hearts. This is because it was at this meeting that our party's childcare policy was formulated.

It was our dear Comrade Kim Jong- un who spoke about childcare policies for our children, filled with love and affection in every word, at an unforgettable plenary meeting that moved the entire nation to tears .

Great Comrade Kim Jong Un strongly expressed his innermost thoughts, saying that raising children without envy in the world is the core of the Workers' Party of Korea's policy and an honorable mission of our Party, and that there is no more important revolutionary work than raising children, the future of the country, well and healthily, and that providing improved child-rearing conditions even at the cost of tens of millions of won is the most important policy and highest wish of our Party and state !

Hearing their parents' words, the people swallowed hot tears.
In particular, the women of this country and mothers with children were so grateful for the Party's policies and the leader 's grace that they wept. News of the plenary session, relayed through every street and village, brought tears to the eyes of the people.
What time was that?

Amidst the vortex of a vicious disease sweeping the globe, the world was seething with anti-epidemic measures being built to protect ourselves against these extreme hardships. People could not even imagine that a childcare policy would be proposed. Furthermore, our people could not contain their overwhelming emotions as they contemplated the heavy burden that would once again befall our respected Marshal, who continues his long journey of devotion to the people.

In fact, our party's childcare policy was proposed in 2021, but this policy was something that our respected leader had been thinking about for many years.

During the period when he was tirelessly pursuing the path of strengthening national power for the well-being of our people and the safety of our future generations, it was the respected Comrade Kim Jong - un who took the project of ensuring that children in daycare centers and kindergartens across the country, not just in the metropolitan area, were fed milk products without fail as a major national task that could not be postponed or delayed.

How can we forget the story of that day when he was deeply heartbroken over the reality that children are not being fed milk, which is good for their growth and development, and earnestly confessed why we are making sacrifices and carrying out revolutions, and how he was thinking about how to ensure that milk is not left unsold to children in daycare centers and kindergartens across the country, not just in the capital.

Afterwards, Comrade Kim Jong- un continued to refine his realistic plan for providing delicious, nutritious food to all children. Shortly thereafter, he declared his firm intention to leave the issue to the 9th Central Committee of the Party, as it had not been resolved during the 8th Central Committee.

Comrade Kim Jong Un , who has raised this issue whenever he had the chance and has been determined to resolve the issue of feeding milk products to children in daycare centers and kindergartens, has announced that he intends to make a decision at the 3rd Plenary Meeting of the 8th Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea to make feeding milk products to children in daycare centers and kindergartens all year round a policy.

In this way, the 3rd Plenary Session of the 8th Central Committee of the Party discussed the issue of improving and strengthening the Party's childcare policy as an important agenda item, and we were able to show the world how we can advance the revolution to a new stage even if it requires effort.

Comrade Kim Jong Un, who has personally calculated the number of children in daycare centers and kindergartens across the country and the daily milk demand of cows, has not only taken special measures one after another, but has also poured his heart and soul into providing solutions to each and every problem arising in milk production, processing, and supply.

At every important occasion, including the 8th Plenary Session of the 8th Central Committee of the Party, he repeatedly emphasized the need to frequently understand the progress of the childcare policy implementation and to exert thorough execution capabilities. He also urged all workers to pay special attention to feeding children in daycare centers and kindergartens well with the mindset of becoming the children's biological parents and to make a practical contribution to the implementation of the Party's childcare policy, thereby proving their loyalty to the Party, the revolution, the country and the people. He also personally tasted the milk powder one day and urged them to make it better, never letting go of the work for future generations.

It was truly a manifestation of the noble will of parents that the loss suffered by the nation for the future of the fatherland is not a loss, and that the more money spent on children, the faster the nation advances.

Thus, dairy farms and goat farms began to appear all over the country, and milk processing facilities were installed in every province, city, county, and village.

Today's painting shows that all children in the preschool age group are fed breast milk every day without fail.

This is the world of justice of a peerless person who feels an incomparable joy whenever he sees the happy faces of our children, and the world of love of a great parent who gains infinite new strength from the bright faces of children and continues his journey of endless devotion to the people. It is a miracle of happiness born from this world of love.

Whenever he receives reports of children growing taller and gaining weight, he is filled with joy and happiness, as if all his worries have been lifted, and he smiles brightly. He is the loving father of the people and the real father of our children .

In this world of great kindness and pure justice of this compassionate and caring person, a project was implemented as a major task to ensure that children did not lose their milk products even during the maximum emergency quarantine period, and unprecedented special loving measures were taken to provide baby milk powder to newborns.

People, do not seek the transformation of our country only in the sky-piercing monumental creations, the magnificent new streets, the new villages, and the modern factories that are springing up one after another.

Our children, always filled with happiness, beaming with joy, a world where we put forth every effort to ensure that children have everything they need, even if adults lack something. This is the true face of our country.

Our country is the only country in the world where the party and government have enacted and unfailingly implemented a national law that fully takes responsibility for feeding and raising future generations.

The more difficult it gets, the more we pour our heart and soul into children, and with the power of that love, we stubbornly advance toward a communist future. This way, our revolution's way of advancing and developing is firmly maintained, and our society is always brimming with vitality and energy.

The song “Be the Envy of the World” sung by our children will resonate endlessly, held in higher and more sacred esteem by the people.

The eternal national policy of our republic

Another major factor in the strengthening of the Republic's national power is that our students are growing up without any worries and concerns, receiving new school uniforms and school supplies at the government's expense.

How thoughtful is our Party's policy of ensuring that all students and young people living in this country's territory are proudly presented to the world without any flaws or regrets.

This is another impressive sight that can only be seen in our homeland.

When I see the sight of schoolchildren from across the nation, all clad in their dazzling new uniforms, brightening the streets and towns, striding briskly, their brightly colored school bags slung over their shoulders and their stylish new shoes darting around with joy, my heart warms. It's no easy feat to simultaneously promote such excellence among schoolchildren from across the nation, not just one or two districts.

How could we even conceive of such dreamlike images without the boundless grace of our Party and the loving care that nurtures, cares for, and grooms the sons and daughters of the people living on this land?

We look back on the days when the 4th Plenary Session of the 8th Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea was held.

Dear Comrade Kim Jong Un guided the work of the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Technology Complex.
Comrade Kim Jong Un , General Secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and Chairman of the State Affairs Commission of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, guided the performance test of unmanned armed equipment being developed and produced by research institutes and enterprises under the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Technology Complex on September 18.

He was accompanied by Comrade Ri Pyong-chol, General Advisor to the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea in charge of military policy, as well as key leading officials of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea and officials from the defense science research sector.

Comrade Kim Jong Un learned in detail about the performance and combat applicability of various unmanned armed equipment, including strategic and tactical unmanned reconnaissance aircraft and multi-purpose unmanned aerial vehicles, being developed and produced by research institutes and enterprises under the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Technology Complex.

The test conducted that day clearly demonstrated the military strategic value and innovative performance of unmanned strategic reconnaissance aircraft, as well as the excellent combat effectiveness of the Venus series of tactical unmanned attack aircraft.

Comrade Kim Jong- un expressed great satisfaction with the test results.

Comrade Kim Jong Un said that, as he has already emphasized, the scope of use of unmanned equipment in modern warfare is expanding and the reality that they are emerging as major military assets has raised the advancement of core technologies in this field and the advancement of artificial intelligence and operational capabilities of unmanned weapon systems as top priority tasks in the modernization of our armed forces.

Comrade Kim Jong- un gave priority to rapidly developing the newly introduced artificial intelligence technology and revealed countermeasures to be taken in expanding and strengthening the serial production capacity of unmanned aerial vehicles.

On this day, Comrade Kim Jong Un approved and ratified an important plan document reflecting organizational and structural measures to further expand and strengthen the technological potential of the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Technology Complex.

Kim says he's willing to meet Trump if he drops demand to dismantle North Korea's nuclear arsenal
North Korean leader Kim Jong Un said in his speech to parliament on Sunday that he saw no reason not to meet US President Donald Trump again if the United States stopped insisting on dismantling his country's nuclear arsenal, noting that he had "good memories" of Trump.

Kim pointed out that "time is on our side" in his country's confrontation with the United States.

North Korea also reported that Kim's relationship with Trump is "good," but Sunday's speech marked the first time since the US president began his second term that Kim personally commented on their relationship.

On another note, the North Korean leader delivered a strongly worded speech against his South Korean counterpart, rejecting his calls for negotiations between the two Koreas. He asserted that "the North will never sit down with the South for talks" or discuss the reunification of the divided Korean Peninsula.

It's worth noting that Trump and Kim met three times between 2018 and 2019. Since returning to the White House, the US president has repeatedly expressed his willingness to meet Kim again, boasting of his good relationship with the North Korean leader.

Speech by Comrade Kim Jong Un at the 13th Session of the 14th Supreme People's Assembly of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea
Dear Comrade Kim Jong Un delivered a speech at the 13th Session of the 14th Supreme People's Assembly on September 21.

The speech is as follows:

Dear delegates!

Dear Chairman and Vice-Chairman of the Standing Committee!

Dear fellow viewers!

The 13th Session of the 14th Supreme People's Assembly of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea is successfully carrying out its work based on the mission and authority granted to it by the Constitution of the Republic and through the active participation and discussion of all comrade delegates.

I am satisfied that our highest sovereign body is responsibly and purposefully pursuing the crucial national task of providing legal and institutional guarantees to resolve pressing issues of great practical significance in further promoting the consolidation and development of the socialist system and the comprehensive revitalization of the nation.

As representatives of our people's right to independence and the general will, I would like to express my encouragement to the comrade deputies to the Supreme People's Assembly who are extremely faithful to the duties entrusted to them in all aspects of socialist construction and are also fulfilling their important roles in legislative activities to perfect state policies and government work. Taking advantage of this opportunity, where a considerable number of officials from the Party, government, national defense and security, and socio-economic leading institutions are also in attendance, I would like to emphasize the achievements made so far this year and a series of important issues that will arise in state construction and activities in the future.

Comrades!

By 2025, when our Party and the government of the Republic will conclude their current phase of work, the vast and important projects scientifically calculated and planned with greater mobilization for the comprehensive development of the country have been vigorously and balancedly promoted, and significant achievements have been achieved to date.

The 13th Central Plenary Meeting of the Party, to be convened this coming December, will be the one to make a final assessment, but if I were to give a preliminary assessment here, I believe that the five-year plan, including this year's plan, will be successfully completed, and I have no doubt that this will be reported to the 9th Congress of the Workers' Party of Korea .

The political enthusiasm of citizens to celebrate the 80th anniversary of the Party's founding with high labor achievements has been strong since the beginning of the year, and has continued with continuous advancement and bold struggles in the second half of the year, following the first half of the year.

Thus, the completion of the five-year plan designed by the 8th Central Committee of the Party in 2025, an important year marking the 80th anniversary of the founding of our Party and ahead of the historic 9th Party Congress, is certain.

The achievements made in the past nine months alone are by no means small, and the overall momentum and atmosphere are positive.

Above all, we are basically carrying out this year's national economic plan in key industrial sectors, including metal, chemical, electric power, and machine industries, as well as major economic sectors.

Of course, we are not yet at a level where we can evaluate ourselves and feel satisfied, but it is very encouraging to see that most companies are showing great enthusiasm for reaching their production targets and producing tangible results.

The agricultural sector is expecting to achieve stable crop yields this year, following last year, and achieve the national grain production target.

Thanks to the dedicated efforts of agricultural workers and laborers, this year's grain production and purchase plan has been exceeded, an unprecedented achievement that confirms the legitimacy and viability of our Party's new wheat farming promotion policy.

With the current good grain production conditions, there is a solid outlook for achieving the planned grain production target for this year.

As a result of efforts to increase the mechanization of agricultural work, the ratio has increased by more than 2% compared to the previous year. This further strengthening of the agricultural production base will serve as a great foundation for further advancement in the future.

The pedantry that was previously only talked about has been eradicated, and the seed revolution, double-cropping, scientific farming, and mechanized farming have been firmly established as a structure that brings about real changes in agricultural production. The sincerity of all the people who sincerely help farms has also been intensified, and it can be said that the ability to respond to natural disasters that have hindered farming every year has also been improved.

The construction sector is the most obvious and undeniable example of the nation's development.

First, regarding industrial construction, construction projects to create modernized and capable production bases in the basic and light industries have steadily progressed through arduous struggles, and key projects, including the first phase of the Tanchon Power Plant and the modernization of the Ryongsong Machine Complex, are nearing completion.

On the banks of the Yalu River, which has recovered from the great flood disaster of last year and is now facing a new era, large-scale greenhouse farms are taking shape thanks to the persistent creative struggle of military builders and youth groups.

The massive project to build 50,000 housing units in the capital during the five-year plan period is proceeding vigorously, far exceeding the original plan. The fourth phase of construction in the Hwaseong district is progressing well according to schedule, and hundreds of housing units in the Geomdeok district and tens of thousands of housing units in rural areas across the country are expected to be completed within this year.

The Wonsan-Kalma Coastal Tourist Area has been completed without any flaws, and people from all over the country have begun to visit and relax one after another. Construction of the Samjiyon Tourist Area is progressing vigorously, and the Pyongyang General Hospital is nearing completion. In addition, numerous creations are being built that symbolize our new civilization and allow people to experience the rapid progress of our country. These are also notable achievements.

By expanding the implementation of the New Era Local Development Policy, we are building more advanced local industrial plants in 20 cities and counties than in the first year. Another beautiful project is also successfully progressing through the pilot phase: providing essential health facilities and comprehensive cultural service centers to fundamentally improve the quality of life of local residents.

In particular, the Paradise County Seafood Farm and Fishing Village Cultural Housing District, which can serve as a substantial goal for local transformation and provide a significant foundation for increasing the region's development potential, were completed in a little over six months.

Nothing gives strength and support as much as the joy and laughter of the people, enabling the ruling party and government of a socialist country to be confident in their policies and to exert stronger leadership and dedicate themselves to serving the people.

The people are living in modern homes built by the state, experiencing the tangible changes in their local communities with their whole being, and through bold efforts, bringing future goals into contemporary reality. These achievements are what clearly highlight the direction and revitalization goals of our economy and serve as a tremendous driving force that breathes life into our socialist system.

Notable achievements have also been made in the fields of science, education, health, arts, and sports, clearly demonstrating the development of the nation across all areas of social life, bringing joy and vitality to the people.

On various celebratory occasions, including the 80th anniversary of the liberation of the fatherland, the 77th anniversary of the founding of the republic, and Victory Day, our nation once again powerfully demonstrated its dignity and status, and our people redoubled their will for self-respect and self-prosperity.

Our party and government are also making continuous, leap-forward progress in strengthening our nation's defense capabilities.

In line with the Party's line of strengthening naval forces, we have successfully built a strategic axis for safeguarding maritime sovereignty by producing destroyers capable of performing various maritime military missions, and have taken a significant first step toward building a maritime power. We have also brought about significant changes, including the recent establishment of clear goals ranging from the uninterrupted strengthening and expansion of strategic forces to the enhancement of the combat performance of commercial weapons.

In addition, we have acquired new secret weapons and have achieved a significant number of research achievements in defense science that will significantly contribute to the further radical advancement of our military capabilities.

It has been demonstrated how vast and valuable the national assets and people's wealth we have created over the past nine months of this year are, and how vast the scope of our struggle to confidently advance the remarkable development of socialism has become.

The foundation for self-reliance and prosperity, which had been a prospect until just six years ago when the 1st Session of the 14th Supreme People's Assembly was held, has been firmly established in all aspects, and the comprehensive development phase of socialist construction, which was only an ideal at that time, has already been solidified.

It has now become an established fact that no one and no adversity can hinder or delay the advance of our country and people, which are advancing in their own way, along their own path of development, while increasing their own capabilities.

Neither external evils nor the unprecedented health crisis and disaster crisis could overcome our strength and unity.

All of this is the result of the entire Party, the entire nation, and all the people holding high the decisions of the Party's 8th Congress as a sure-victory struggle program, resolutely overcoming harsh challenges and difficulties, and stubbornly ascending the steps of leap forward year after year with unprecedented tenacity and practicality.

In this process, our will to resolutely forge our own path and future has become stronger, our confidence has become more solid, and everyone's role and driving force have been further strengthened.

Everyone in every corner of this country is experiencing a dramatic and profound change, and they are becoming more passionately united and more firmly united in their pride and devotion to their homeland.

I am proud to say that in the nearly 80-year history of the Republic, there has never been a time when the people's pride and devotion to their country have reached such a high level.

For us, economic growth and strengthening military power are of great significance, but what is more important and tens or hundreds of times more powerful is the mental power of the people who are the subject and the preparation of political and ideological power.

The flames of the movement for increased production, thrift and competition, kindled by the working class of the upper class under the leadership of our Party and the government of the Republic, which seek reserves and possibilities in the ideological realm rather than the economic realm and resolve all issues with the power of ideology and political offensive in all areas, have further sublimated the revolutionary fervor and fighting spirit throughout the country, and inspired by the heroic spirit of the martyrs of the overseas operation units who spared no expense in protecting the honor and dignity of the fatherland, the patriotic enthusiasm and mass heroism of all the people are rising more fiercely.

This is more valuable and powerful than anything else in terms of future victory, success, and development.

I take this opportunity to express my sincere and heartfelt gratitude to all the citizens of the Republic who have always and absolutely supported the policies of the Party and the Government and upheld them through their bold struggles and extraordinary creative achievements.

Comrade delegates!

The true purpose of our struggle and our overwhelming confidence is to redouble the forward momentum that has brought about unprecedented changes in all areas of national and social life since the founding of the country, and to successfully carry out the grave tasks of the times and revolutionary missions, thereby building our republic into a powerful nation that no one can harm and into an ideal society for the people.

At this point, when the struggle for comprehensive national revitalization has reached an unprecedented high, our Party and people expect the government to play a more precise and proactive role.

The government of the Republic must uphold the principle of further strengthening the popular character of its activities and maximizing the unity and creativity unique to our people.

Nowadays, a widespread bias is appearing in many units, with little regard for the working and living conditions of workers, and a focus solely on carrying out production plans or construction tasks.

We must never, under any circumstances, obscure the human-centered nature of socialism. We must prioritize people over production, and address, one by one, the fundamental issues of ensuring the health and well-being of producers.

Currently, projects to consolidate agricultural production are being implemented in earnest across the country. We must ensure that no one deducts their share from the farm workers or mishandles grain under the pretext of implementing the plan.

We need the planned grain production, but the rights and interests of the farmers are more important, and the public's absolute trust in the party's policies are more valuable.

We must not allow even the slightest element that runs counter to the people-oriented character of our nation, such as the abuse of power and bureaucracy in the policy implementation process or the infringement of the people's interests, and we must thoroughly direct all state work toward strengthening single-minded unity.

It is very important to transform the process of developing and implementing national projects into a process that maximizes the boundless power of the people.

In other words, whether in overcoming the subjective and objective obstacles that lie in our path of progress or in boldly resolving the essential tasks that arise at the present time, we must first recognize the unwavering revolutionary spirit and patriotism of our people and unleash their immense strength, making this a pervasive principle in all processes of national work.

We must continuously enhance the cabinet's organizational and mobilizing role.

The Cabinet has the executive agencies and capabilities to carry out the government's mission and can exercise the corresponding authority, so it must properly command, direct, and control all constituent agencies to ensure that they perform their functions smoothly.

And through collective consultation, we must strengthen close ties and cooperation between sectoral executive agencies, jointly manage and control the overall business and the business of each sector, eliminate subjectivity, improvisation, egocentrism, and self-interest among economic leaders, and devise practical improvement measures to eliminate irresponsibility, ignorance, and incompetence.

We must establish strict financial discipline across all national affairs to prevent negative factors such as embezzlement, waste, and fraud from gaining a foothold, and ensure that invested funds are used accurately and effectively to strengthen the foundation of a self-reliant economy and for the well-being of the people.

Relying on our own strength to stabilize the overall national economy and achieve sustainable economic development, the most pressing task is to properly resolve economic management issues.

We must urgently establish measures to accurately dissect the causes of the contradictions and shortcomings inherent in the existing economic system and establish realistic and rational economic management methods that can powerfully drive socialist construction.

Availing myself of this opportunity, I am going to make our stand towards the relations with the ROK clearer.

We have no reason to sit together with it and will do nothing together with it.

I make clear that we will not deal with it at all.

In fact, we and the ROK have existed in the international community as two states over the last scores of years.

It is a stark reality that the two most hostile states on earth, two belligerent states, have been in acute confrontation on the Korean peninsula.

It was Syngman Rhee, the first president of the ROK, and his clique that rigged up a separate government on one half of the Korean peninsula in stubborn opposition to the aspirations of all the fellow countrymen to get rid of the tragedy of division imposed by foreign forces and live and develop independently on one territory.

In the first Constitution of the ROK fabricated and promulgated in July 1948, Syngman Rhee stipulated that “the territory of the ROK covers the Korean peninsula and its attached islands,” thus codifying its inborn nature which is the most hostile to our state.

The Korean Armistice Agreement, concluded in 1953 after the three-year war, officially confirmed in front of the international community that the two belligerent states undeniably exist on the Korean peninsula without the complete end of the war. And in 1991 the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea and the Republic of Korea joined the United Nations separately, and thereby they came to be internationally recognized as completely two different states.

We defined the ROK as a foreign country and the most hostile state, not based on the judgment formed abruptly in recent years.

This is nothing new.

We simply accepted the hard fact.

We call the ROK the most hostile state, because they have kept writing a history of the most hostile acts against the DPRK.

Starting with Focus Lens after the war, they frenziedly staged anti-DPRK war games almost every day, ceaselessly changing their codenames, including Freedom Bolt, Ulji Focus Lens, Team Spirit, Key Resolve and Ulji Freedom Guardian. At present, the drills developed more viciously into such all-round nuclear war rehearsals as Ulji Freedom Shield and Freedom Edge.

The ROK turned its whole territory into a nuclear outpost and depot, the largest of their kinds in the Far East, by introducing more than 1 000 nuclear weapons of all kinds into the Korean peninsula for the first time in history. It is now in a frenzy with war games by introducing into the peninsula at any time a huge amount of advanced military hardware including the three strategic assets of the United States and even the NATO-led Western forces.

The reckless anti-DPRK military moves, made by the ROK in collusion with foreign forces, have turned the Korean peninsula into a constant war danger zone where it would not be regarded as abnormal if a war breaks out right now.

Though government has changed more than ten times and the Constitution undergone revision nine times in the ROK so far, nothing has changed in the territory-related article of the Constitution, which is aimed at invading and annexing the DPRK. And although the National Security Law has been revised several times, the article concentratedly reflecting hostility towards the DPRK has not undergone even the slightest revision.

We have detestably witnessed what the successive rulers of the ROK have pursued.

The history of fierce confrontation between the DPRK and the ROK spanning nearly eight decades and the present reality clearly show that the inborn wild ambition of the ROK, whether they advocate “democracy” or put on the mask of “conservatism,” to make our system and government collapse has never changed and will never change, and that the enemy is the enemy.

Furthermore, in view of national interests, we have no intention to get reunited with the country which has entrusted its politics and defence to foreign forces.

The ROK is a deformed entity with hemiplegia and a colonial tributary whose all fields have been Americanized, a foreign country that has thoroughly become heterogeneous.

It is a matter of course that as water and fire can never fuse into one, the independent politics and the sycophantic and treacherous politics cannot concur, the independent defence and the subordinate defence cannot merge with each other, the self-reliant economy and the colonial contract economy cannot combine, and the socialist culture and the Yankee culture cannot go together.

The reunification of the two entities, which have become completely heterogeneous and mutually exclusive, can never be achieved unless one of them ceases to exist.

Reunification is never needed.

The recently formed Lee Jae Myung government of the ROK is advocating a “line of compromise” with us, talking about “improvement of relations” and “peace,” in a bid to make a distinction between it and its preceding governments. But nothing has changed substantially.

In view of its wild ambition for “unification by absorption,” it puts in the shade its preceding vicious “conservative” regimes, which set the anti-DPRK policy as a state policy.

In public they say they will “assiduously build a tower of confidence with patience” for “restoring the south-north relations without fail,” but behind the scenes they are building higher the wall of confrontation by expanding and strengthening the war rehearsals for aggression such as nuclear operation drill and multi-realm joint military exercise aimed at a preemptive nuclear strike on the other party.

Actually, in the draft budget bill for next year, which the Lee Jae Myung government passed for the first time after they came to power, the military expenditure is expected to increase by 8.2 percent, far surpassing that of the Yoon Suk Yeol regime that earned notoriety for its confrontational fanaticism against the DPRK.

These days, they say that they will recognize our system and will not pursue “unification by absorption” but coexist with us peacefully. But the chief of his state security office explained quite exactly the true intention of the ruler some days ago.

At a round-table meeting on September 17, he made a remark of totally denying our system and Constitution by saying, “The denuclearization of the Korean peninsula is the ultimate goal traditionally pursued by the ROK and the United States, and it remains unchanged, whether anyone likes it or not.”

Now the enemy is openly clamouring for an early resumption of dialogue, saying that the longer the suspension of dialogue gets, “the more boosted the nuclear and missile capabilities of the north will be.”

The “three-stage denuclearization theory” of the current ruler, so-called “suspension-reduction-denuclearization,” is nothing other than a copy from the “workbook” of his predecessors who dreamed of disarming us.

It will be only an expression of deep attachment and obsession to discuss reunification with such an enemy state, and such persistence cannot change anything in realty.

How can we and the ROK be reunified?

Has the world history ever recorded a case of unification between such two sworn enemy states?

Why should we pursue a reunification which cannot be achieved unless one of them ceases to exist?

We will enshrine in a national law that we and the ROK are two states sharing the border, which are heterogeneous from each other and which can by no means become one.

The government of the DPRK will, in the future, too, reliably defend the sovereignty, security and fundamental interests of the state and strongly promote peace and security in the Korean peninsula and the region surrounding it in a most responsible manner.

east and west germany?

because it would be good to bring socialism to the south

as much as I understand unification is not a realistic policy to pursue in the short term, straight up

i used to have misgivings about the jetissoning of the reunification policy and to some extent its sad, but i now see why. you see how other countries fighting an anti-imperialist struggle keep cucking out and compromising and falling for tricks. like how many times has iran or palestinians held negotiations with the west only for them to have never been serious in the first place and just an excuse to have them in one place to be killed? this policy of reunification can be exploited as a weakness by the US and people's korea wont let it happen. i hope.

not exactly. Kim was referring to the old policy of the DPRK which was in favor of reunification under a "one country, two systems" style federation. The Lee Jae Myung government recently said they are willing to accept that in an attempt to improve relations. German reunification is an example of the "unification by absorption".

The Trafficking in Persons Report only highlights America's incurable disease.
The full text of the article, “The Trafficking in Persons Report Only Highlights the Incurable Diseases of the United States,” published on the 2nd by Lee Jin, a researcher at the Chosun Human Rights Research Association, is as follows.

Recently, the U.S. State Department has once again released a report that arbitrarily evaluates and classifies the state of human trafficking in all countries around the world, including our country.

As in the past, the report listed the reality of human trafficking in other countries and ranked them from “model countries” to “backward countries” based on government efforts to eradicate it and the results, repeating the same slanderous attacks on sovereign nations.

We have already condemned the US's annual Trafficking in Persons Report, which is consistently full of outdated fabrications, as a symptom of America's addiction to the politicization of human rights.

It is shocking that the United States, which has the world's worst human rights record every year, still tries to act as a "human rights judge."

It is absurd that the United States, a country where horrific shootings occur almost daily in schools, churches, and stores, and where tens of thousands of people are imprisoned due to its immigration deportation policy, should be assessing the human rights situation in the world.

That's not all.

It is truly a tragicomedy that the U.S. government has issued a "verdict" assessing the state of "human trafficking" worldwide at a time when the massive child prostitution crimes committed by an American millionaire are shocking the world.

The reality is that the U.S. Trafficking in Persons Report is nothing more than a means to obscure their own human rights violations, politicize human rights, and rationalize their pressure on other countries and interference in their internal affairs, and it clearly demonstrates that it has nothing to do with any actual efforts to eradicate human trafficking.

It is no coincidence that not only anti-American, independent countries, but also “like-minded countries” with the United States are openly criticizing the United States’ deceptive and contradictory rhetoric on “human rights.”

As the world moves toward multipolarity, many countries, including the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, are focusing their efforts on promoting human rights in a way that is consistent with their own unique history, culture, and socioeconomic environment.

The United States must face reality and realize that it is no longer fit to act as an outdated and ineffective "human rights judge." It would be wise to keep in mind that the more it internationalizes and politicizes other countries' "human rights" issues, the more it will only bring about self-destructive consequences by focusing attention on their own dire human rights situation.

We will continue to ignore America's deceptive rhetoric about "human rights" and will do everything we can to protect our superior socialist system and the genuine rights and interests of the people.

The Sacred 80-Year Leadership of the Workers' Party of Korea (2)
Strengthening the party as a mass party of the working people and leading the construction of a new fatherland
(Pyongyang, October 6, Korean Central News Agency)

After liberation, the great leader Comrade Kim Il- sung built our Party into a mass party of the working people, united all the people around the Party, and achieved a brilliant victory in democratic construction.

Since its founding (October 10, 1945), our Party has strengthened its combat capabilities as it has led the construction of a people's government and democratic reforms. However, our country lacked a large number of prepared communists, the working class was still in its infancy, and the people lacked a deep understanding of communism. Only by developing the Communist Party into a mass party could it rapidly expand and strengthen its power, firmly unite the broad masses around it, and advance the cause of nation-building.

In his works, including “For the Founding of a Unified Party of the Working Masses” and “On the Immediate Tasks of the Workers’ Party,” the Great Leader clarified the necessity of the merger of the Communist Party and the New Democratic Party in strengthening the unity of our country’s democratic forces and clarified the purpose, nature and mission of the Workers’ Party that meet the essential requirements of a party representing and defending the interests of the working masses.

With the proclamation of the founding of the Workers' Party in August 1946, our Party emerged as a mass party deeply rooted in the broad masses and a powerful vanguard force leading the revolution and construction to victory.

The great leader wisely led the work to establish a regular army and a republic, which were essential requirements for building an independent and autonomous nation.

At that time, in response to the US imperialists' war maneuvers against our country, the construction of a regular armed force emerged as an urgent task that could not be delayed before our Party.

The Great Leader established military and political cadre training bases such as the Pyongyang Academy, the Central Security Cadres School, and the Security Cadres Training Center, and created and implemented our own military regulations, manuals, unit command and management methods, and tactics in newly organized military and branch units. He also pushed forward the creation of an independent defense industry.

With the founding of the Korean People's Army (February 8, 1948) under the leadership of the Great Leader , our people were able to fulfill their long-held desire to have their own modern regular army.

From the very first day of its founding, our Party paid close attention to resolving the issue of sovereignty and fought to establish a central sovereign body to unify the leadership of local people's committees at all levels.

At the founding convention of the Party, the great leader set forth the development of our country into a prosperous, democratic, independent state as the Party's fundamental political task and took steps to establish local sovereignty organs with his own hands in accordance with the will of the people.

In February 1946, he established the Provisional People's Committee, a central sovereign body, and established a people's democratic government to carry out the tasks of anti-imperialist and anti-feudal democratic revolution, and implemented various democratic reforms.

In our country, a people's government was established and democratic reforms were implemented, creating conditions for the planned development of the people's economy.

Under the leadership of the great leader , who went out to factories, enterprises, and rural areas to arouse the strength of the working masses during the days of building a new fatherland, the first people's economic plan after liberation was brilliantly completed.

During these days, our people contributed to the development of the country's economy by carrying out various nation-building movements and production surge movements, such as the National Founding Ideology General Mobilization Movement, the Kim Hoe-il Movement, the Patriotic Rice Donation Movement, and the Patriotic Production Increase Competition Movement.

Based on all these achievements and experiences, the Second Congress of the Party held from March 27 to 30, 1948, analyzed and summarized the achievements of our Party in democratic reform and the implementation of the first national economic plan, and presented the task of further enhancing the Party's role in the struggle for the revitalization and development of the national economy.

The Great Leader established a solid foundation for building an independent and sovereign state and founded the Democratic People's Republic of Korea on September 9, 1948.

Truly, thanks to the wise leadership of our Party, our people were able to brilliantly accomplish the feat of founding an army and a nation in such a short period of time. (End)

Korean Central News Agency Commentary
The frenzy of the constitutional revision "shock troops" only further endangers Japan's future.
<The deep-rooted militaristic ambitions of Japanese reactionaries are becoming increasingly reckless.

Recently, the opposition party, Japan Restoration Party, has openly argued that Article 9, Paragraph 2 of the Constitution, which stipulates "non-possession of combat power," should be deleted, and that the exercise of the "right to collective self-defense" should be fully recognized, while the possession of the "right to self-defense" and the "national defense forces" should be explicitly stated in the Constitution.

The Japanese Conservative Party also went on a rampage, claiming that the Constitution, which states that Japan will not wage war, must be revised to protect Japan, and that the "crimes" of war have been compensated for over 80 years after the war.

The fact that minor conservative parties have joined forces with the Liberal Democratic Party in its constitutional revision drive is an ominous development that demonstrates that all of Japan's militaristic forces are converging toward the single goal of overseas invasion.

As the international community recognizes, Japan's political scene is a fascist cesspool, run by right-wing extremists with a deep-rooted obsession with militarism.

The harsh reality of Japanese politics is that while they may fight each other for the sake of their ambitions for power and partisan interests, they speak with one voice regardless of the ruling or opposition party when it comes to achieving the goal of completing a war-torn nation.

The fact that the extreme right-wing conservative factions of the opposition party, including the Japan Restoration Party, are now at the forefront of constitutional revision is related to the downfall of the Liberal Democratic Party faction, which had been the "vanguard" of constitutional revision and was frantically pursuing the militarization of society.

The Liberal Democratic Party has established constitutional revision as the party's "basic policy" and has been manipulating in every way to manipulate the war constitution.

Last September, the Liberal Democratic Party faction devised a cunning method of maintaining Article 9 of the current Constitution, which stipulates "renunciation of war" and "non-maintenance of combat power," while introducing a new clause and explicitly stating the existence of the "Self-Defense Forces." In March of this year, they held a party convention and pledged once again to quickly revise the Constitution.

The Liberal Democratic Party suffered successive defeats in the House of Councilors and fell into a minority, becoming dysfunctional. Prime Minister Ishiba, who had been pursuing an ambitious plan to force through constitutional amendments that his predecessors had failed to achieve, was forced to resign under increasing pressure from within the country.

The decline and fall of the Liberal Democratic Party has turned a red light on the path of the extreme right-wing conservative forces who have been frantically pursuing the revival of the "Greater Japanese Empire" and the realization of the old dream of the "Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere" by revising the "Peace Constitution."

The militaristic parties, feeling extremely threatened, gave strength to the increasingly weakened Liberal Democratic Party and, with the intention of completing a wartime state in the shortest possible time, they desperately clung to the constitutional amendment.

The reality is that Japan's political climate and constitutional nature, dominated by fanatic nationalism obsessed with hatred and a desire for conquest toward other races, have not changed one bit from yesterday to today.

However, the madness of the constitutional amendment "shock troops" seeking to manipulate the war state and revive the state of aggression only further endangers Japan's future. (End)

I was thinking about the challenge in getting information in or out of the most authoritarian regime on Earth, what methods would be effective. Radio broadcasts of every frequency get jammed by the government, the DPRK internet is completely cut off from the real internet. I read about one loophole, there are areas near the northeast border where Chinese cellphone tower coverage sometimes spills over into DPRK territory and North Korean dissidents can make international calls to China that way if they can get ahold of a phone with a Chinese SIM card and get to one of those areas. There's a whole black market for smuggling in Chinese SIM card phones for that very purpose. I wonder what would happen if people started sending up weather balloons with bags full of Chinese SIM burner phones with an enclosed list of Chinese phone numbers or something.

It's not about teaching North Koreans anything, it's about helping dissidents in the country transmit information out of the country, so they can inform the world about the conditions of North Korea and how the government is treating its population, it's kind of important that the world knows about these things and there is a reason the North Korean government goes to such extreme lengths to put a stop to it.

In hindsight, the weather balloon part of the plan was pretty stupid and it would make much more sense to just give the burner phones to some criminal smugglers and use the existing black market distribution channels than some ridiculous balloon drop that would probably just get stuck in a tree and never be found by anyone. But exploiting the Chinese SIM loophole is pretty solid because it's outside the control of DPRK - they can't build jammers to block the Chinese cell towers because China wouldn't allow it, and they can't muscle China into moving their towers further away from the border, and they can't track a Chinese burner phone until someone turns it on to use it, by the time they do track it they've already used it and tossed it.

I think it's an idea that could potentially be expanded upon if DPRK dissidents had more outside funding/support and collaborators operating in China. I know on the surface it doesn't seem like a huge deal, being able to make a call or send an SMS message from North Korea into China, but all it takes is one leak of information, perhaps a photograph of thousands of children in mass graves or a video of Kim Jong getting pegged by a transhumanist, to change North Korean history forever.

Arrival of the Mexican Workers' Party delegation (picrel)
A Mexican Workers' Party delegation led by National Leader Alberto Anaya Gutierrez arrived in Pyongyang on the 7th to participate in the celebration of the 80th anniversary of the founding of the Workers' Party of Korea .

At Pyongyang International Airport, he was greeted by Comrade Won Kyong-ho, Vice Director of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea.

The Sacred 80-Year Leadership of the Workers' Party of Korea (4)
<Leading the establishment of Juche and the construction of the foundation of socialism in party work

The great leader Comrade Kim Il Sung significantly strengthened the leadership role of the Workers' Party of Korea and wisely led the struggle to establish a genuine socialist system that meets the ideals of the popular masses.

From the very beginning, the construction of socialism in our country has been a struggle to establish the subject by establishing all lines and policies in accordance with the specific conditions of the country and the needs and interests of the people.

The great leader , who convened the 6th Plenary Meeting of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea in August 1953 , stated in his report "Everything for the Restoration and Development of the Postwar People's Economy" the three-stage tasks of restoration and construction, and declared the basic line of postwar economic construction to advance in the direction of ensuring the priority restoration and development of heavy industry while simultaneously developing light industry and agriculture.

Upholding the Juche-oriented economic construction line presented by the Great Leader , our people rose up in the struggle for post-war reconstruction and construction, overcoming all challenges.

However, the machinations of the sycophants and dogmatists who challenged the party's economic construction line created a major obstacle to our progress.

Eliminating the servility and dogmatism that have lingered in the minds of people for a long time and establishing Juche in revolution and construction has become an issue that can no longer be postponed.

In the Theses on the Nature and Tasks of Our Revolution, announced at the Plenary Session of the Party Central Committee in April 1955, the Great Leader set forth the construction of a socialist foundation in our country as the fundamental task of our Party. He defined the overall task of building a socialist foundation as transforming the petty-commodity and capitalist economic systems in both urban and rural areas, establishing the sole dominance of socialist production relations, developing the country's productive forces, and laying the foundation for socialist industrialization.

To successfully accomplish this historical task, we must thoroughly establish the subject from the ideological work and enhance the independent ideological consciousness and creative ability of Party members and workers.

The great leader 's historic speech , "On Eliminating Dogmatism and Formalism in Ideological Work and Establishing Juche," delivered at the First Congress of Ideological Workers of the Workers' Party of Korea in December of that year, became a turning point in the struggle to establish Juche in our Party's ideological work.

At the Third Congress of the Workers' Party of Korea held in April 1956 under the guidance of the Great Leader , the struggle goals of the five-year people's economic plan to complete the construction of the foundation of socialism were presented.

Under the leadership of the Party, our people, who had completed the three-year post-war reconstruction plan by 1956, rose up to carry out the first five-year plan.

The great leader , who presented the revolutionary slogan, “Let us increase production and economize to complete the five-year plan ahead of schedule!” at the December 1956 plenary session of the Party Central Committee, visited every corner of the country to encourage the people’s struggle.

The leader and the people became one in mind and purpose, and the people's economic plan for 1957 was doubled compared to 1956, and in 1958, it grew by 40% compared to the previous year, completing the first five-year plan ahead of schedule with an average economic growth rate of 36.6% each year.

Under the wise leadership of the Great Leader , agricultural cooperatives were completed in August 1958, and at the same time, socialist reforms of handicrafts and capitalist commerce and industry were also carried out.

In our country, the historic victory of the socialist revolution has finally been achieved.

Under the leadership of the Great Leader , our Party has raised the banner of Juche and successfully built a powerful socialism of our own style—a miracle unprecedented in history

South Korean lawmaker pushes to eliminate Japanese military terms

According to documentation submitted by the ministry, numerous terms originating from the Imperial Japanese Army remain embedded in daily military language—decades after the end of colonial rule.

Rep. Hwang Hee, a member of the National Assembly’s Defense Committee and a legislator from the ruling Democratic Party of Korea, said the continued use of outdated Japanese-origin words and military expressions has broader social and cultural implications.

In a review of terminology provided by the defense ministry, Hwang highlighted words such as “kara” (fake), “penki” (camouflage or deception), “shimai” (end or dismissal), and “kusari” (rebuke)—all of which were commonly used in the Japanese military and adopted into the South Korean military during its early formation period. These expressions, along with others like “bunpai” (distribution) and “narashi” (leveling or smoothing), are believed to have been passed down from Japanese-trained officers during the post-World War II transition.

In addition, several Japanese-style Sino-Korean compound terms remain prevalent in official and operational military language. These include words such as “tenko” (roll call), “kuho” (double-time or fast march), “kosan” (senior personnel), and “zampan” (leftover food). The National Institute of the Korean Language has recommended replacing these terms with standardized Korean alternatives, including expressions for “personnel check,” “running,” “senior soldier,” and “leftover rations.”

Hwang also pointed to the widespread use of military slang and coded expressions that are disconnected from formal Korean. Common examples cited include “kalkari” (itchy inner lining of winter clothing), “tenbo” (easy duty), “malnyeon” (soldier nearing discharge), and “chamchi” (new recruit).

In a statement, Hwang said: “Young men who complete their military service return to society, so the purification of military language directly connects to broader improvements in national language culture. The Ministry of National Defense must take steps to organize and eliminate Japanese-style terminology and slang within the military environment.”

Language reform in the South Korean military has been a long-standing issue, often tied to efforts aimed at decolonization and the modernization of institutional culture.

The South Korean military was established in the aftermath of liberation from Japan’s occupation, and many of its early instructors and frameworks were influenced by Japanese doctrine.

Comrade Kim Jong- un 's speech at the celebration of the 80th anniversary of the founding of the Workers' Party of Korea
Dear Comrade Kim Jong Un delivered a speech at the celebration of the 80th anniversary of the founding of the Workers' Party of Korea .
The speech is as follows:

Dear comrades, congratulating the 80th anniversary of the founding of the Party!

Dear citizens of Pyongyang and overseas compatriots!

Dear friends from many countries who are celebrating the holidays with us!

Comrades!

Today, as we mark the 80th anniversary of the founding of our Party, we celebrate this historic holiday with a grand celebration and once again commemorate those sacred 80 years. This is our generation's solemn and sincere tribute to the great founding generation that brought about a groundbreaking change in the destiny of the country and its people.

In the struggle to truly inherit and sublimate the ideology and spirit of the early days of the Party's founding, a dignified and powerful socialist state, loyal to the people's dreams and ideals, has emerged on this land, and great miracles and changes that have astonished the world have been created over the centuries and decades. This is the history of modern Korea, which has engraved 80 images under the leadership of our Party.

On this meaningful occasion, I would like to first express my heartfelt gratitude to the comrades of the celebration delegation who have rushed to this glorious day, bearing the proud fruits of extraordinary patriotic fervor and labor struggle. I also extend my heartfelt congratulations and encouragement to all Party members, all the people, and the soldiers of our armed forces who have come from every corner of the country to this venue to offer their unwavering best wishes.

I also offer my warmest congratulations to the representatives of overseas organizations, including the Korean Residents in Japan congratulatory delegation, the General Association of Korean Residents in China congratulatory delegation, and the International Koryo Association congratulatory delegation, who visited the homeland. Through you, I also extend my warmest greetings to all my compatriots living in this foreign land.

Attending today's celebration were heads of state and government from various countries, as well as representatives of international democratic organizations, who visited Pyongyang with their support for our Party and fervent friendship for the Korean people.

We welcome our precious friends who are deeply cherishing our friendship and celebrating the joyous holiday of our Party together, and express our sincere gratitude.

Comrades and friends!

The 80th anniversary of the founding of the Workers' Party of Korea shines with the immortal achievements it has made over the long years before the country, the people, the times, and history.

The founding of our Party was not merely the birth of a political party in one country; it was a political event that signaled the emergence of a new type of revolutionary party on the stage of history that would prove the justice of socialism and demonstrate its unique superiority and power.

From the time of democratic founding, which was the founding of the Party and the beginning of leadership over all aspects of national and social life, to the present day, the Workers' Party of Korea has faithfully fulfilled its responsibility and role as the locomotive of the revolution and the guiding force in implementing state affairs, and in the process has achieved truly significant historical achievements.

Our Party has triumphantly led the various stages of social transformation by holding high the banner of the Juche idea, creating on this land a true people's country with absolute sovereignty and national power, a powerful nation in which socialist ideas and ideals are fully realized, and has made a great contribution to the international cause of realizing independence and justice.

It has been a truly complex and arduous, yet rewarding and glorious 80 years.

Along the way, there were fierce wars to repel the armed invasion of the imperialist allied forces and defend the land and dignity of the fatherland, a process of restoration to rebuild the nation from the ashes and rebuild life, and social revolutions accompanied by serious class struggles and the liquidation of factions within the Party.

After establishing the socialist system, we had to be even more resolute in our mission to defend the geopolitical environment, which was at the sharpest frontline of the confrontation between progress and reaction, socialism and imperialism, and we had to vigorously promote the cause of building self-defense and national defense. We had to proactively and aggressively deal with the economic isolation and oppression that had been persistently carried out for centuries, and we had to advance the massive socialist construction project.

In particular, amidst the global political turmoil of the 1990s, we had to uphold our ideology and system, and in the new century, we had to open a new era of leap forward in socialist construction by simultaneously pursuing economic development and the construction of nuclear weapons to cope with the increasingly abhorrent threat of nuclear war from the United States.

Historically and realistically, nowhere in the world has there been a case like ours where we have had to simultaneously carry out the difficult and enormous tasks of defense and construction while facing constant and persistent pressure, interference, and threats of invasion from external forces.

In a situation where simply maintaining power and protecting the system was practically a miracle, our party willingly shouldered all the challenges of the times, pioneering a path no one had ever walked before, and etching a century-long history of transformation.

At every period and stage of revolution and construction, our Party has steadily progressed along the unchanging track of socialism, overcoming multiple challenges with scientific lines and strategies, and on this path has brilliantly accomplished the historic feat of building an independent and powerful nation.

The significant events recorded in the history books and the miraculous transformations that have shaped the course of time are a manifestation of the scientific nature and vitality of our Party's revolutionary ideology and line, and they clearly demonstrate that it has brought about enormous and radical development in politics, military affairs, economy, culture, and even foreign relations.

Thanks to its immortal achievements, the Workers' Party of Korea has earned the valuable reputation of being a seasoned and refined revolutionary party, a party of steel that is invincible in every battle, and a genuine people's party that serves the people.

All these achievements and honors cannot be considered separately from the noble achievements made in building our Party.

Our Party's placing the ideological unity and organizational unity of the Party ranks and revolutionary ranks as fundamental issues for the victorious advancement of the revolutionary cause and its primary focus on realizing them was an important factor in enhancing the Party's ability to govern and ensuring the purposefulness and consistency of its leadership activities.

Since its founding, firmly guaranteeing the unity of ideology and leadership within our Party has been a crucial and urgent issue for upholding its revolutionary nature and leading the grand social revolution and overall national construction to victory.

In the early days of the founding of the country, as well as during the war and after the war, our Party gave priority to establishing Juche in ideology and arming all Party members and all the people with the Party's guiding ideology and revolutionary line. At the same time, we prioritized strengthening grassroots Party organizations, refined the Party's ranks, and actively increased the fighting power and activity of Party organizations at all levels. We also waged a powerful struggle to prevent even the slightest factional tendency from forming within the Party.

Whenever major tasks arose and difficulties arose in the revolution and construction, our Party placed greater emphasis on organizational and ideological consolidation, maintaining ideological purity and organizational integrity unwavering in the face of any political storm. With its iron fighting power and mature leadership, it has led the revolutionary transformation and upsurge in socialist construction.

The Party's leading role in revolution is realized through realistic and concrete leadership activities.

Our Party has actively explored and practiced methodologies and work styles that maximize the revolutionary enthusiasm and creativity of the people in the process of dealing with the problems arising in revolution and construction and overcoming the difficulties encountered.

The numerous revolutionary leadership methods and popular work styles created by our Party have united the masses under one banner, unleashed a fierce surge of revolutionary and patriotic enthusiasm, and enabled them to overcome all obstacles through collectivism and popular heroism that help and lead one another, thereby achieving continuous innovation and remarkable miracles.

As the Party's history of ruling the country lengthens and generations change, authoritarianism may sprout among the workers and a series of problems that separate the Party from the masses may arise. We have always been alert and vigilant about this, and the spirit of absolute service to the people has dominated the entire Party. This has been an important factor in the Party gaining the people's unwavering trust and in the people entrusting their entire destiny entirely to the socialist state.

Our Party's struggle, which held high the banner of independence and socialism amidst all kinds of hardships, has made a huge historical contribution to the common cause of humanity for justice and peace.

Our Party's exemplary leadership, which maintained a firm belief in the legitimacy of the socialist cause and the inevitability of its victory and perfectly demonstrated the scientific truth of its ideology both theoretically and practically, created a powerful barrier against the anti-socialist maneuvers of the imperialist allied forces and actively contributed to the solidarity and alliance of the world's progressive forces.

Even today, the unwavering principle and bold and fearless response of our Party and government, which are taking an ultra-hardline stance against the enemy countries' ferocious political and military pressure maneuvers, are strongly promoting the growth of the progressive camp opposing war and hegemony, and the international authority of our Republic as a faithful member of the socialist forces and a solid bastion of independence and justice is being strengthened day by day.

Comrades and friends!

There is a secret that lies at the heart of the triumphant party's achievements.

In a word, it means that the Party has done everything together with the great people.

A history for the people, a history based on the power of the people – herein lies the secret of all the victories and glory of our Party.

The 80-year history of our Party can be most accurately represented only as the history of the people, and its steadfast guiding principles and immortal achievements can be most fairly explained only through the immortal proposition of being together with the people.

At the very beginning of our founding, we raised the red flag high, imbued with the ideals and will to build a truly people's world. This was the great beginning of our Party's history together with the people, and a demonstration of its immense power.

The weight of our party flag, engraved with the image of the people, is not only our responsibility for the people's destiny, but also the boundless wisdom and creativity of the people, who always teach us the path of truth, give us irresistible courage, and drive us forward into the future. It is by no means light.

The reason our Party has not had a single mistake or error in its line for 80 years is because it has collected the will and demands of the people, and the reason it has steadily advanced on the path of ascent without a single moment of setback or stagnation is because it has the wisdom and strength of the people as its driving force.

Because we have led the advancement of history through the will and power of the people, all the revolutionary struggles and construction projects undertaken by our Party have been transformed into the people's own and have been successfully completed.

The protagonists of all the major events that guarantee the eternal victory and success of our cause are the entire people of this country, including our heroic working class, agricultural workers, and intellectuals, the great Korean people.

Today, our people stand before the world as a mighty people, with no obstacles they cannot overcome and no feats they cannot accomplish.

Our Party's 80-year history of ruling, which has opened up an unprecedented path by gathering the people's aspirations, will, and strength, and realized the dream of a strong nation among the people and together with the people, is once again clearly engraving a truth in the history and times.

A party that is not a party of the people, but a party that is among the people, a party that shares the same aspirations and aspirations as the people, the same wisdom and strength as the people, and the same joys and sorrows as the people, can never be destroyed and will never lose its vitality and energy.

Our Party cannot exist without the people, and our Party is great because the people are great. This is an eternal truth that will remain forever, yesterday, today, and tomorrow.

I would like to once again express my gratitude to our great people who have always provided strength and wisdom to our Party and have devoted their pure hearts and diligent efforts, believing in victory together with the Party, as we have blazed the arduous and sacred path of the socialist cause for over 80 years .

Comrades!

As I face the people's gaze at this meaningful moment today, I feel with my whole body their boundless trust and sky-high expectations for our Party.

Because of the hearts of those who unconditionally support and follow the Party's resolve, even while enduring all difficulties, our Party has unwavering confidence in all its undertakings and is firmly convinced of its victory.

If we continue to fight well for a few more years at this current pace, we can significantly transform our lives with our own hands and get closer to achieving our ideal goals.

I take this opportunity to affirm that I will always cherish my deep love for the people, never forget my duty to repay them, and strive even harder to remain true to their trust.

We will trust the people who support our Party and always be one with them, making this country even more prosperous and beautiful and building it into the world's greatest socialist paradise.

Comrades!

The glorious 80-year history of our Party inspires us and pushes us toward even greater and more rewarding struggles.

Following the great 80 years in which the Party and the people became one in will and body, pioneering and shining with victory , let us advance with redoubled courage and high confidence for the final completion of the socialist cause, which will realize the dreams and ideals of our people, and for the summing up of a great history that will be even more glorious and proud.

As I conclude this address, I humbly wish our beloved people peace and prosperity.

I sincerely hope that families across the country will be filled with warmth, harmony, and happiness.

Long live the great Workers' Party of Korea and the great Korean people! (End)
