Anniversary of Kim Jong Il's Work Observed

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

   Pyongyang, October 16 (KCNA) -- Rodong Sinmun Tuesday dedicates an article to the 25th publication anniversary of Kim Jong Il's famous work "The Workers' Party of Korea Is a Juche-Type Revolutionary Party Which Inherited the Glorious Tradition of the DIU".
    The work serves as an important document as it comprehensively deals with theoretical and practical problems arising in steadily adding shine to the glorious history and tradition of the WPK which has covered a unique path under the banner of the Down-with-Imperialism Union (DIU).
    The DIU represents the roots of the WPK, the origin of Songun and a model of unity, the author of the article says, and goes on:
    Thanks to the great tradition of the DIU the WPK has grown to be an experienced and tested invincible revolutionary party, the army of the DPRK has been built into a matchless army and the Party, army and people are single-mindedly rallied close around the leader.
    The WPK which inherited the glorious tradition of the DIU is a dignified revolutionary party holding aloft the banner of independence.
    The historical experience goes to prove that if a party fails to maintain independence, it can never ensure consistency in party building and activities nor creditably carry out its historical mission as a political guiding organization of the popular masses.
    The WPK is a revolutionary party winning one victory after another under the banner of Songun.
    The Songun politics of the WPK originated from the DIU. The banner of the DIU was a banner of Songun, banner of the most vigorous struggle against imperialism.
    The WPK is a powerful revolutionary party holding high the banner of single-minded unity.
    One of the greatest feats performed by the DIU was that it gave origin to the unity of revolutionary ranks around the leader.
    The WPK has become an ideologically pure party as all its members are replete with the Juche-based Songun idea and the spirit of devotedly defending the leader. And it has become elite ranks in which all members act as one in accordance with the intentions of the leader and fully display the spirit of devotedly implementing them. This is the true picture of the WPK, faithful inheritor of the tradition of unity of the DIU.
