Rodong Sinmun on Tradition of Struggle to Establish Juche

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

   Pyongyang, October 28 (KCNA) -- The tradition of the struggle to establish Juche has served as an eternal lifeline for accomplishing the cause of Korean-style socialism. Rodong Sinmun Saturday says this in a by-lined article.
    It goes on:
    President Kim Il Sung formed the Down-with-Imperialism Union (DIU) in October Juche 15 (1926), taking anti-imperialism, independence and sovereignty as a basic idea. This marked a historic event as it ushered in a new era of the Korean revolution in which it advanced on the principle of independence against all sorts of flunkeyism and dogmatism.
    The above-said tradition that originated from the DIU has served as a fundamental guarantee and a driving force that has helped the Korean revolution dynamically advance along the road of victory without vacillation in any storm and stress for the past eight decades.
    The President had consistently maintained the principle of independence, the banner of Juche held aloft by the DIU, in the whole period of leading the Korean revolution and led the Korean people to settle all issues arising in the revolution and construction by their own efforts in a responsible manner.
    The slogan "Let us live our own way!" put up by the Workers' Party of Korea fully reflects the revolutionary faith and will of the Party, the army and the people in the DPRK to inherit to the last the great tradition of the struggle to establish Juche which originated from the DIU and carry out the revolution and construction their own way, guided by their own faith no matter which way the wind may blow.
    The above-said tradition serves as a valuable treasure as it encourages the servicepersons and people to win victory in the stand-off with U.S.-led imperialism and successfully push ahead with the building of a great prosperous powerful socialist nation under the Songun leadership of Kim Jong Il.
    The DPRK enjoys ever-growing dignity and might and the Korean revolution witnesses a new historic turn despite the daily pronounced hostile policy of the U.S. imperialists towards it. This is a striking demonstration of the WPK's line of independence.
    The tradition is based on the firm faith of the Korean people to carry out the revolution and construction according to their independent judgment and determination and the idea of achieving the prosperity of the country and the nation by relying on their own efforts. This great tradition serves as an eternal banner of victory as it guides the revolutionary cause in the DPRK to advance along a straight path, the article concludes.
