S. Koreans Called Upon to Ostracize GNP

KCNA

    Pyongyang, August 10 (KCNA) -- The Koreans in the north and the south are loudly condemning the Grand National Party of south Korea. Considering the sudden death of Jong Mong Hon, chairman of Hyundai Asan of south Korea, on August 4 to be a political murder perpetrated by the GNP, they unanimously hold that the party should be ostracized.
    Jong set an example in the north-south reconciliation and cooperation through cooperation with the Korea Asia-Pacific Peace Committee, following in the wake of his father despite all sorts of difficulties, thus making a positive contribution to building confidence within the nation and laying a foundation of reunification.
    The GNP can not be construed otherwise than a group of murderers as it threatened and pressurized him on the strength of the illegal "special inspection" to drive him to death.
    That's why the whole nation is raising their voices critical of the party.
    The Korean Social Democratic Party, the Central Committee of the Democratic Front for the Reunification of the Fatherland, the Korea Asia-Pacific Peace Committee, the National Reconciliation Council, the north side's delegation to the north-south ministerial talks and other political parties, public organizations, institutions related to inter-Korean relations in the DPRK released statements one after another, describing Jong's death as a political murder engineered by the GNP, which has been engrossed in doing harm to those who devote themselves to the development of north-south relations and reunification of the country, regarding them as thorns in the flesh.
    The statements appealed to the south Koreans from all walks of life to turn out in a just struggle to completely ostracize the GNP, a cancer-like entity in the way of improving the north-south relations and realizing the cause of country's reunification.
    News media in Pyongyang in a few days carried articles denouncing the GNP's vicious anti-reunification moves in driving Jong to death and asserting that the party should be ostracized.
    Voices denouncing the GNP are also growing stronger in south Korea.
    The Democratic Party of South Korea said that his death was caused by the "special inspection" intended to hamstring the efforts for national reconciliation and is a warning to the cold war conservative forces.
    The political and public circles are giving vent to their indignation, unanimously saying that it is a deplorable political reality that Jong, who contributed to national reconciliation and development of north-south economic cooperation, was driven to death.
    The GNP should be buried in oblivion for the sake of democratic development of the south Korean society, the improved north-south relations and national reunification.
