S. Korean Authorities Denounced for Distorting History
Pyongyang, October 17 (KCNA) -- The Joint Council of Civic and Public Organizations of south Korea grouping bodies of different social standings made public a statement on October 14 denouncing the authorities for pursuing a policy for distorting the history.

It accused the authorities for establishing "a system for introducing state-compiled textbooks" which calls for putting the publication of textbooks for middle and high schools under control.

The system pushed forward by the present regime is a product of the moves for distorting the history as it seeks the revival of "yusin" dictatorship, it noted.

The above-said system should be withdrawn without fail, it demanded.
