Accomplishing Kim Il Sung's Cause of Building Rich and Powerful Country Called for

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

   Pyongyang, July 8 (KCNA) -- Papers Sunday editorially commemorate the anniversary of demise of President Kim Il Sung, the nation's biggest memorial day. Rodong Sinmun in an editorial entitled "Let's successfully accomplish the great leader's cause of building a rich and powerful country" lauds him as a peerless national hero and patriot as he considered it as his lifelong cause to build a rich and powerful country and performed epoch-making immortal feats in the course of the struggle to accomplish it.
    It was the greatest historical feat performed by him that he brought about a fundamental turn in carving out the destiny of the country and the nation despite all storms and stresses and set an example of the times in building a rich and powerful country, the editorial notes, and goes on:
    The President gave comprehensive and perfect theoretical and practical solutions to all the problems arising in the revolution and construction in our times ranging from the line and policies at every stage of the struggle for building a rich and powerful country to the tasks in the fields of politics, military affairs, economy, science and technology and culture.
    Upon embarking on the road of the revolution in his early years the President regarded the faith that the revolution precisely means Juche and independence as his maxim and have since firmly maintained the principle of independence and the revolutionary principle of self-reliance in the whole course of building a rich and powerful country.
    All the precious gains of the socialist DPRK including the Juche-based revolutionary party and the matchless state power, reliable self-supporting national economy and the most advantageous socialist national culture were provided by the President thanks to his life-long dedication. He provided the undying Songun traditions and built invincible revolutionary armed forces and powerful self-reliant national defence industry, in particular. This was the most precious of the exploits performed by the President for the eternal bright future of the prospering country.
    The eternal foundations for building a rich and powerful country laid by the President made it possible for the Korean people to overcome the rigorous trial of the "Arduous March," the forced march and launch the grandiose march for building a great prosperous powerful nation under the uplifted banner of Songun.
    Minju Joson in an editorial says that the on-going all-out march of the Songun revolution led by Kim Jong Il is a march representing the noble sense of revolutionary obligation to glorify the revolutionary career and exploits of Kim Il Sung for all ages and a sacred march for translating his long-term plan to build a rich and powerful country into brilliant reality on this land.
