Anniversary of Kim Jong Il's Work Observed
Pyongyang, October 17 (KCNA) -- Rodong Sinmun Wednesday dedicates a bylined article to the 30th anniversary of leader Kim Jong Il's work "The Workers' Party of Korea Is a Juche-Type Revolutionary Party Which Inherited the Glorious Tradition of the DIU."

The work clarifies principled issues arising in developing the WPK into an eternal Juche-type revolutionary party.

The banner of independence, unity and Songun held aloft by the Down-with-Imperialism Union (DIU) serves as an eternal banner of the WPK for victory.

The principle of independence laid down by DIU serves as the eternal revolutionary one of the Workers' Party of Korea.

The WPK has shaped its line and all its policies from the creative and independent stand and wisely led the work to firmly maintain the Juche character and national identity in all fields of revolution and construction.

It is thanks to the leadership of the WPK struggling under the uplifted banner of independence that there emerged on this land a socialist power independent in politics, self-supporting in the economy and self-reliant in national defence, and the international prestige of the country has remarkably grown.

It is the invariable political creed of the WPK that an independent stand represents justice, truth and victory.

The single-minded unity which traces back to DIU and has steadily been consolidated in the whole historical course of revolution has always served as a revolutionary philosophy of the WPK.

The DIU tradition of the unity centering on the leader has been firmly inherited in the whole historical course of the Korean revolution.

The single-minded unity of the DPRK is the most solid unity formed on the basis of the blood ties of the leader, the party and masses and based on the monolithic idea.

The revolutionary ranks of the DPRK represent an integral whole of the party, army and people united close around the leader in thinking and purpose and in terms of morality and sense of obligation.

The course of Songun first covered by DIU is the ever-victorious one to be always followed by the WPK.

The idea of the anti-imperialist struggle of DIU is fully embodied in the Songun policy of the WPK.

The policy thoroughly embodies the idea of attaching importance to army and military affairs which has been steadily inherited generation after generation. The policy is an ever-victorious political mode whose validity and vitality were fully proved in the fierce class struggle against imperialism.

The WPK will achieve the victory of DPRK-style socialism, destroying the stronghold of the enemies with arms of Songun under the uplifted red banner of DIU.
