19th of October  2026

 The British Group for the Study of the Juche Idea and  the  Korean Friendship Association of the UK  KFA  UK )  , issued a joint statement in support of the press statement  made by comrade Kim Yo Jong , department director of the Central Committee of the Workers Party of Korea titled "We don't say empty words about protection of our sovereignty" which was issued on the 19th of October ;

Now the situation on the southern border of the DPRK is very tense and is unstable. As comrade Kim Yo Jong explains " A grave situation is prevailing along the southern border due to the reckless behavior of the ROK military gangsters"

The ROK puppet gangsters have fired at personnel of the Korean People's Army (KPA) with automatic rifles and machine guns  . They had also broadcast loud speaker warnings . This has happened from the 1st of October until the 17th of October .

In particular " the ROK military gangsters committed grave provocations escalating tensions by repeating provocative loudspeaker warning over 350 times and warning fire 60-odd times from October 15 to 17 in different areas adjacent to the southern border"

These provocative actions of the ROK puppets are aimed at preventing the DPRK from the just exercise of its sovereignty and its right to secure its own borders.

Honestly speaking  , the present "liberal " puppet regime in the ROK is no different to the previous fascist puppet regime , They are both the same . As comrade Kim Yo Jong points out  "All the facts prove that the Lee Jae Myung regime, which exhibited "appeasement appearance," advocating "reconciliation" and "peace" from the outset of its office, has far outpaced the die-hard conservative regime of Yoon Suk Yeol, ill-famed for openly pursuing anti-communism, in escalating confrontation with the DPRK"

The Lee Jae Myung liberal puppet regime in the ROK  is just the liberal fascist puppet regime . In fact the liberal puppets are going further than the previous fascist puppets in their anti-DPRK confrontational moves.

Comrade Kim Yo Jong declares that the DPRK will take steps for further secure its border such as the deployment of practical strike means and the resumption of loudspeaker broadcasts.

We support the resolute stand of the DPRK and denounce the ROK liberal fascist puppet regime for its crazy provocations against People's Korea !
Defend People's Korea !

DPRK Brings Secondary Education to New High


With the universal 12-year compulsory education launched over ten years ago, the DPRK has made another progress in secondary education by shifting to the implementation of the selective course system in April this year. 

In the countries with developed education, such a system is in place only at institutions of higher education through a long-term research and experimental stage, and, in case where it is introduced into general education, it is limited to some specific schools. This is because the system requires enormous human, intellectual and material resources to be consumed in working out a new educational programme, providing relevant textbooks and conditions for experiments and practice, and determining the range and level of the educational contents according to schools and subjects. 

If you look into the introduction of the selective courses in the DPRK, you can notice that it successfully adopted them in a very short span of time.

According to local officials concerning education, it was in September 2022 that the issue of reforming the educational structure in such a way as to give advanced education was brought up, and selective courses began to be run on a trial basis in schools in several cities and counties in April 2025. This means that it took the DPRK no more than two years and a half to prepare for the new system ranging from working out the relevant programme to operating a trial run. Great efforts were made to revise the universal 12-year compulsory education programme, compile textbooks for different schools, grades and subjects, strengthen teaching force and lay the foundation for experiments and practice. The kinds of textbooks alone increased three times as compared to the past—a workload a 1 000-odd-strong compiling team carried out. 

In September 2022, Kim Jong Un, General Secretary of the Workers’ Party of Korea, unveiled a plan for transforming the educational structure into an advanced one and improving the teaching contents and methods accordingly. At the Sixth Plenary Meeting of the Eighth Party Central Committee in December 2022, he articulated concrete measures for designing and implementing curricula at senior middle schools and technical senior middle schools so that students can select subjects on their own according to their individualities. And he made sure that a plenary meeting of the Party Central Committee convened in June 2023 adopted a decision on setting the structural reform as an important task facing the educational sector and the undertakings for its implementation was pushed forward with the drive.

Since April, the senior middle schools including technical ones across the country have been running science, literature, arts, physical education and technical courses so that students can learn according to their aptitudes, hobbies and wishes. Given that the future of a state or nation depends on how many personnel of practical abilities and sci-tech talents are trained, it is believed that the DPRK will make more-than-expected progress in the future.
