Rodong Sinmun Calls for Upholding Banner of Great National Unity
Pyongyang, August 18 (KCNA) -- Rodong Sinmun Saturday marks the 22nd anniversary of the publication of President Kim Il Sung's work "Let the Entire Nation Unite and Hasten the Reunification of the Country" on August 18, 1990.

A bylined article of the paper says:

The work is an invincible banner guaranteeing the victory of the independent and peaceful reunification of the country, and an inspiring banner leading all the compatriots to the unity of the nation and independent reunification.

The country's reunification is a nation-wide patriotic cause to be achieved by united efforts of all the Koreans.

The Koreans constitute the driving forces for the country's reunification and they are the masters who would enjoy happiness and prosperity on a reunified land. Nobody can replace the Korean nation's struggle for its reunification.

Those who love the country and the nation and aspire after the reunification and prosperity should get united for the interests common to the nation and join in the struggle against the anti-reunification forces.

All the Koreans in the north and the south and overseas should get united under the banner of patriotism and reunification and foil the anti-reunification moves of outside forces and the south Korean Lee Myung Bak group of traitors in collusion with them.

All the Koreans should wage a dynamic struggle for the country's reunification under the banner of the great national unity, true to the noble idea and patriotic intention of the President and leader Kim Jong Il.
