Rodong Sinmun Calls for Preserving National Character

Korean Central News Agency of DPRK via Korea News Service (KNS)

    Pyongyang, September 30 (KCNA) -- It is imperative to preserve and embody the national character of the revolution and construction in order to steadily advance and accomplish the cause of socialism at present. Rodong Sinmun says this in a signed article today.
    The cause of socialism is the cause of the working class and, at the same time, the cause of national independence for national development and prosperity and a struggle to defend socialism and preserve national character, the article points out, stressing that the U.S. imperialists are now viciously intensifying ideological and cultural infiltration to undermine the DPRK, while speeding up their moves for military aggression on it.
    The article proves that to keep national character is an important requirement to establish Juche firmly and push ahead with the revolution and construction our own way, a sure guarantee for firmly defending the dignity and honour of the country and the nation and an important matter to foil the ideological and cultural infiltration moves of the U.S. imperialists and defend socialism.
    Although there are many countries and nations in the world, all of them are not establishing their independent spirit and not carrying on the revolution and construction as they intended, the article says, and goes on:
    Only the country which pursues the policy of giving full play to the good traditions of its nation, believing on the inexhaustible strength of its nation is able to establish Juche firmly in the revolutionary struggle and infinitely glorify socialism. The lofty honour of a nation is not glorified by anyone. It is wrong to think that the dignity and honour of a nation can be glorified by much money and wealth. If all people rise up as one with the consciousness that they are members of the nation, they can achieve national prosperity and glorify the dignity of the nation even under any difficult conditions.
    The struggle to frustrate the ideological and cultural poisoning moves of the U.S. imperialists is a struggle as serious as military showdown. The U.S. imperialists are now craftily scheming to obliterate the national character of other countries under the deceptive signboard of "globalization".
    A struggle to preserve national character in all fields of social life is now being invigorated in the DPRK thanks to the wise leadership of the party. No U.S. imperialists' ideological and cultural poisoning goes down with the Korean people.
