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

   Pyongyang, June 23 (KCNA) -- A seminar took place on June 22 to mark the 60th anniversary of Kim Il Sung Higher Party School. The papers presented there referred to the facts that President Kim Il Sung who founded the school is its eternal rector and Kim Jong Il is the great leader and kind-hearted father as he has developed it into the highest seat for training party officials and taken good care of the work and life of its teachers and students with deep trust and love. They also noted that devotedly implementing Kim Jong Il's policy of training party officials is a basic requirement for bringing about a new turn in the work of training party officials as required by the Songun era..
    Speakers recalled that Kim Il Sung founded the Workers' Party of Korea right after the liberation of the country and established the school before anything else, becoming its first rector, and wisely led the school to successfully inherit the idea and tradition of training revolutionary cadres established in the crucible of the anti-Japanese revolutionary struggle.
    He provided on-the-spot guidance to the school dozens of times and gave it highly important instructions hundreds of times all his great life, thus indicating the general orientation and scientific ways of education and consolidating it to be a comprehensive centre for training party cadres equipped with up-to-date educational facilities and school fixtures, they noted, and continued:
    Kim Jong Il laid it down as the basic mission of the school to train party officials firmly armed with the revolutionary ideas of Kim Il Sung and the WPK's unitary leadership system and has energetically led the work to fulfill it.
    It is the most vital task and honorable duty of the school to defend and glorify the revolutionary feats performed by the three generals of Mt. Paektu in strengthening and developing the school, they said, stressing the need to do so.
