Preserving Juche Character and National Identity Called for

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

   Pyongyang, May 12 (KCNA) -- Preserving the Juche character and national identity provides a sure guarantee for the independent development of any country and nation, observes Rodong Sinmun today in a signed article.
    Preserving the Juche character and national identity makes it possible to raise the sense of responsibility and role of the popular masses as the main player in the revolution and construction and give fullest play to their creative enthusiasm and wisdom with a view to accelerating the independent development of the nation, the article notes, and goes on:
    If each country and nation are to achieve victory in the revolution and construction, they should establish Juche and handle all the issues arising in carving out their destiny in a responsible manner according to their independent judgment and decision.
    If one accepts others' prescriptions or allows their interference, failing to preserve the Juche character in the revolution and construction, this is not the attitude of taking responsibility for the destiny of the country and nation. This would make a mess of the revolution and construction and reduce the country and nation to a plaything of outside forces.
    It is important to preserve the national identity in order to promote the independent development of the country and nation.
    A failure to firmly preserve the Juche character and national identity may cause the country and nation to lose the gains of the revolution won at the cost of blood, much less achieving their independent development.
    The reality requires all the countries and nations desirous of independent development to firmly preserve the Juche character and national identity, protect their ideology and political mode and properly preserve their national characteristics.
