The reporter and speakers at the rally noted that the general march for this year called the young men and women to a heroic struggle and feats previously unknown, and said they should firmly arm themselves with the idea of the Workers' Party of Korea and prepare themselves as the first death-defying corps defending the headquarters of the revolution.
    Calling upon the young people to take the lead in the building of an economic power, they said all the problems arising in the improvement of the people's living standard should be resolved as required by the Songun era.
    The young people should actively join the Korean People's Army to defend the gains of revolution and earnestly acquire military knowledge so as to thoroughly establish the habit of attaching importance to the military affairs all over the country.
    An appeal to the organizations of the youth league and the youth and students across the country was adopted at the meeting.
    It called on all the young men and women to perform great feats for the Party and the country to be young heroes and patriotic youths praised by the people.
    It said they should proceed to difficult and labor-consuming sections such as the construction site of the Paektusan Songun Youth Power Station and fully display the stamina of youth.
    It urged the youth to display the resourcefulness and valor of the Songun young vanguard to the world once again in the drive to implement the joint New Year editorial under the Songun leadership of Kim Jong Il.
