AS the 75th anniversary of the founding of the Workers’ Party of Korea approaches, the Korean people, and progressive people all over the world prepare to mark this momentous occasion and remember the exploits of the true peoples’ party that is the WPK.
The WPK, which is the organizer and guide of Korean working masses, has always fought to achieve the socialist ideal in the Korean revolution. Even in the early days when it was founded and in the programs of the predecessor party organizations organized by the President Kim Il Sung, the people-first principle has guided the socialist ideals of the Korean socialists, communists and patriots who fought to establish an independent socialist, workers’ state in the Korean peninsula.
The anti-Japanese guerillas, united around Comrade Kim Il Sung, with other young communists, socialists and patriots formed the Society for Rallying Comrades on July 3rd, Juche 19 (1930), when the first steps in establishing the Juche idea were first outlined. There, President Kim Il Sung indicated the path of the Korean revolution and stressed its originality and set necessary philosophical background to making a victory in the revolution.
The WPK today carries on the torch of the Juche idea as first outlined by the President, as the only way to ensure socialist construction and victory in the Korean revolution as was proven empirically throughout many decades of the Korean peoples’ many victories achieved in the socialist construction of their country.
After the DPRK was founded, the WPK has lead the Korean people through many different periods, and periods of turbulence in the world, and has always kept the stability of the Revolution and the flame of the Juche Idea burning. It organized the working masses and mobilized the people to socialist construction of a workers’ paradise.
The WPK set an example to the socialist camp in construction of a genuine Workers’ state, guided by the Juche idea, it materialized the philosophical outlook in the Korean society by organizing it accordingly and never once strayed away from its socialist path. The DPRK is today an exemplary genuine socialist, workers’ state thanks to the policies of the WPK and remains firmly on the path of socialism.
Being also the torchbearer of the Songun Idea and Songun politics, the WPK ensured independent Juche based army building which resulting in creating the largest military force in the world, the mighty Korean People’s Army, which defends the DPRK, the fortress of the people.
Built according to the Songun idea, which was developed to perfection by Chariman Kim Jong Il the KPA will surely annihilate and imperialist invaders that dare attempt a strike on the Headquarters of the Korean Revolution.
The WPK has introduced a number of policies ensuring that the armed forces of the DPRK are well equipped to deal with any dangerous situation, and has carried through the development of the nuclear deterrent program which has progressed far under the Revolutionary Leadership of Comrade Kim Jong Un.
The WPK always strived for world independence and peace, fulfilling its internationalist duty (as written about by Great Leaders Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il.. It aided peoples in their just anti-colonial struggles (eg. Zimbabwe, Vietnam…), aided countries in their own country building, and built friendly relations with countries not only in the socialist camp, but with all peace loving countries in the world through organizations like the Non-Aligned Movement.
When socialist countries collapsed in the 1990s, through policy of the WPK the DPRK salvaged the socialist ideal through showing a clear validity and vitality of the Juche-oriented theory of socialism, thus being at the forefront of defending socialism and independence in the world when the imperialist countries touted their victory over socialism and attempted to enslave all of the world peoples.
At this time, the WPK not only defended socialism by building a powerful socialist state despite the difficulties of the period, but also adopted the famous Pyongyang Declaration in 1992. with over 70 parties of the world entitled “Let us Defend and Advance the Cause of Socialism”. The WPK then, as it doesn’t now, didn’t allow for the Korean people to be made to kneel down and become a source of cheap labor for the imperialists.
And so, as we look back to the 75 years of existence of the Workers’ Party of Korea, we must keep in mind all of the work that it has done for peace, independence and the cause of socialism in the world. The progressive people of the world everywhere express gratefulness and celebrate the anniversary of the progressive force that the WPK has been, and still is, in the world.
They hold it in high-esteem as a model people-oriented party fighting for the cause of socialism, inspired by its red revolutionary banner glorified by the conjoint symbols of labor on it, the symbol of united struggle of working masses for peace, independence and socialism.
Long live the Workers Party of Korea, the shining example to the world socialist movement!
Long live the 75th anniversary of Party Founding
