S. Korean Authorities Accused of Moving to Revive "System of Introducing State-Compiled Textbook"
Pyongyang, October 20 (KCNA) -- The south Korean authorities on Oct. 12 officially announced the "system of introducing state-compiled textbook" that obliges middle and high schools to compulsorily use only the history textbook compiled by the "government."

Commenting on this, Rodong Sinmun Tuesday says this is a revelation of their criminal attempt to embellish the despicable past history woven with sycophancy and treachery, fascist dictatorship and confrontation with compatriots and justify their treacherous and anti-reunification policy for confrontation.

What merits a serious attention is that they are fanning up the atmosphere of confrontation with the DPRK in the whole society of south Korea through the above-said system, the commentary notes, and goes on:

Their coup-like distortion of history is aimed to distort justice, truth and history and instill inveterate repugnancy and hostility towards the compatriots in the north into the younger generation in a bid to realize their ambition for "achieving unification of social systems".

The south Korean conservative group is nothing but betes noires of history as they are resorting to provocation and confrontation while denying even the truth of history, indifferent to the prospect of the north-south relations and the destiny of the nation in order to achieve their base political purposes.

Minju Joson Tuesday says in a commentary the truth of history can never be concealed with anything and those who make desperate efforts to turn back the clock of history, going against the people's mindset, are bound to meet a miserable end.
