Rodong Sinmun on Juche-Oriented Theory of State Building

Korean Central News Agency of DPRK

    Pyongyang, September 6 (KCNA) -- The Korean people are leading a proud and worthwhile life under the banner of the glorious Democratic People's Republic of Korea and the international prestige of the DPRK is steadily rising higher. This is a clear proof of the greatness of the Juche-oriented theory of state building provided thanks to the energetic theoretical and ideological activities of the Workers' Party of Korea. Rodong Sinmun today says this in a signed article. It goes on:
    The issue of power is important for hewing out the destiny of the popular masses, but it could not find a right solution in any era and revolution. It was only the WPK that perfectly solved the theoretical and practical issue arising in building revolutionary power.
    President Kim Il Sung put forward the original line of building power based on the Juche idea and pursued the politics centering on the popular masses, thus successfully hewing the path of state building in the era of independence.
    He gave an origin to the building of people's power based on the Juche-oriented principle as early as in the period of the anti-Japanese revolutionary struggle and further developed in depth the Juche-oriented theory of state building to meet the intrinsic requirements of socialist society. The Juche-oriented theory of state building provided by Kim Il Sung has thus been developed in depth with the progress of the revolution. This theory has been further developed and enriched at a new higher stage under the leadership of Kim Jong Il.
    It is the theory of state building in our era as it is a full embodiment of the principle of Songun.
    The fundamental character of the theory of state building Kim Jong Il has developed in depth as required by the Songun era is that it regards it as a great important affair and a basic principle of state building to increase military force.
    He set out the original idea of placing the army before the working class and has augmented the military force, considering it as the most important state affair. The reality clearly proves the justice of the Juche-oriented idea of state building that a country which pursues Songun is a true popular country and strong state.
    Another important character of the theory is that it considers the perfect unity of the whole society on the basis of the revolutionary soldier spirit as a social and political foundation and a fundamental cornerstone for state building and the building of a great prosperous powerful socialist nation as an ultimate and basic aim of state building.
    The WPK's theory of state building serves as a great programme for state building in the 21st century as it correctly reflects the desire of humankind for building an independent powerful state.
