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

   Pyongyang, September 5 (KCNA) -- It is the great honor and pride of the country and its people that they have greeted a shining heyday in the development of socialist education, holding President Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il in high esteem.
    Rodong Sinmun today says this in an editorial dedicated to the 30th anniversary of the publication of "Theses on Socialist Education" by Kim Il Sung.
    This work, published on September 5, Juche 66 (1977), comprehensively deals with the President's Juche-oriented idea and theory of education and great exploits and rich experience gained in leading the educational work and gives answers to theoretical and practical matters arising in the socialist education.
    The editorial says:
    The President, basing himself on his noblest view on the younger generation, the view on future, turned the country into a land of learning and firmly laid all the groundwork for steadily developing the Juche-oriented education. This constitutes an immortal exploit of national historical significance performed by the President.
    The President's Juche-oriented educational idea and undying feats have been successfully carried forward under the outstanding and tested leadership of Kim Jong Il.
    Over the last three decades since the publication of the theses the advantages of the socialist educational system in the DPRK have been fully demonstrated and great achievements made in the education under the wise guidance of the WPK and the leader.
    The DPRK has produced a large number of revolutionary intellectuals firmly equipped with the revolutionary world outlook and noble traits by strengthening the politico-ideological education true to the Party's educational policy. As a result, the politico-ideological might of the revolutionary ranks has steadily grown strong and those who cherish loyalty to the Party and the leader as their faith came to take charge of the important posts of socialist construction. It is something to be highly proud of that the young people who will carry forward the tradition of the revolution have been fully prepared politically and ideologically.
    The intense loyalty to the leader, transparent faith in socialism, ardent love for the country and its people and noble sense of moral obligation towards comrades, strong organization and discipline, hard-working spirit and simplicity--these are the ideological and moral features of the Korean young people who have received the Juche-oriented education under the care of the Party.
    The editorial calls for bringing about signal innovations in the education as required by the developing reality, true to the Party's idea of attaching importance to education and science, and thus successfully train the younger generation into dependable revolutionary intellectuals for the building of a great prosperous powerful nation and powerfully demonstrate the prosperity of Songun Korea.
