DPRK Newspapers Dedicate Editorials to Birthday of President Kim Il Sung Pyongyang, April 15 (KCNA) -- Leading newspapers of the DPRK on Tuesday dedicate editorials to the 113th birth anniversary of President Kim Il Sung. The President's revolutionary ideology and exploits shine as an eternal cornerstone in the chronicles of changes that recorded brilliant successes and eye-opening leaps forward along the path of accomplishing the revolutionary cause of Juche and on the road of the world progressives who have struggled for independence and justice, says Rodong Sinmun in its editorial, and goes on: President Kim Il Sung is a peerless elder statesman and outstanding leader as he performed immortal exploits for the times and the revolution and the country and the people with the brilliant rays of the Juche idea. With his deep insight into the requirements of the new era when the oppressed and maltreated popular masses emerged as the masters of their destiny, he founded the immortal Juche idea from the viewpoint that the masters of the revolution are the popular masses. The Juche idea is an encyclopedic revolutionary idea representing the whole historic era of accomplishing the cause of independence of the popular masses, the cause of socialism, and a great idea guiding the future of mankind. The glorious history of the Korean revolution which has covered the glorious road of victory under the banner of Juche and the present reality in which the spirit of independence is growing stronger day by day on a worldwide scale are a clear demonstration of the might of the truth of the President's revolutionary idea. It is the greatest exploit performed by the President for the times and history that he founded the most scientific and revolutionary guiding idea and thus provided the immortal banner for accomplishing the cause of independence of the popular masses, the cause of socialism. Today, the Juche idea founded by the President has been steadily developed and enriched thanks to the extraordinary ideo-theoretical activities of the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un, the outstanding genius of the revolution. Minju Joson says in its editorial that the DPRK will shine forever as the country of the President as it is led by Kim Jong Un who is most thoroughly and perfectly upholding the idea and cause of the leader.
Life of Popular Leader Brilliant with Devotion for People Pyongyang, April 15 (KCNA) -- Greeting the greatest auspicious April holiday of the nation, the people in the DPRK are looking back with deep emotion on the life of President Kim Il Sung who believed in the people as in Heaven. Regarding as his motto of life and struggle the truth that if one believes in the people and relies on them, one will always win a victory, but if one is forsaken by them, one will always suffer a defeat, the President had continued his field guidance till the last moments of his revolutionary life to find himself among the people. He had made ceaseless journey for the happiness of the people, not minding the muddy and rugged roads, since the day he firstly visited the workers of the then Kangson Steel Plant before others, not visiting his beloved old home after liberating Korea from Japan's colonial rule. One day in September 1948 he visited a village on the west coast to see the inhabitants drink water in a puddle and initiated a plan for a waterway project to bring life-giving water to them, thus realizing their long-cherished desire. He also transplanted rice seedlings in paddy fields with the farmers and taught the knack of farming while walking on a footpath between rice paddies. Whenever he visited a factory, he took oil-stained hands of the workers and watched the products they produced one by one. Lots of touching stories were created during his field guidance such as the one in which he visited a mountain village in the northern part of the country by pushing his car caught in a marshland, saying that he should visit every place where people live. And in another story the President went into a working face where waters dripped from the ceiling, saying that he visited the mine to see the miners work in the face. The number of units the President visited from the days immediately after the liberation of Korea to the last moments of his life is over 20 600 and the total length of the course of his field guidance is over 578 000 km. Indeed, his whole life was the noble one of the popular leader who made indefatigable efforts for the happiness of the people.
