A Must-visit in DPRK

 A Must-visit in DPRK

There are many structures and objects in the DPRK which have been admired by foreign visitors. Among them is what is called the children’s palace.

The Mangyongdae Schoolchildren’s Palace in the capital city of Pyongyang exemplifies such facilities.

The palace has a distinctive exterior and rather splendid interior. Gorgeous chandeliers, illuminations and decorations on the ceiling and walls are a good reminder of a fairyland. Hundreds of hobby group rooms are all cosy and neat. Its theatre is flawless as well.

According to local media, when he visited the palace in May 2014, Kim Jong Un, President of the State Affairs of the DPRK, pointed to the need to remodel it into an unparalleled children’s palace in the world and took every necessary measure to this end. While learning in detail about the renovation project on his revisit to the palace in November the following year, he found the windows of hobby group rooms larger than necessary and referred to the need to downsize them as they might have effects on the room temperature. He also said that a first-aid room should be separately set up in the swimming pool. This is only some of what he instructed that day. 

Now, in the remodelled palace, Korean schoolchildren are conducting a range of extracurricular activities for music, fine art, astronomy, Taekwon-Do and other subjects for free like the other sorts of education in this country.

The same is true with other children’s palaces and halls that can be found in scenic places across the country. This is an outcome of the policy pursued by the country for the rising generation, which puts them forward as the king of the country and spares nothing for them. 

Growth of children augurs well or badly for the future of a country. As the Korean children prepare themselves into talents who are knowledgeable, virtuous and healthy under the particular care of the state, the future of the country will be apparently so rosy.

Those getting uneasy at the DPRK’s prosperity and development are fearful of its bright future and afraid that the world people become aware of it.

Sooner or later, however, truth discovers itself and sees the light.

Many of the foreigners who have visited the schoolchildren’s palaces advise their friends to pay a visit to them ahead of other places on their possible tour of the country.

Orphans Conducting Extracurricular Activities

 


Children engage in extracurricular activities at Hamhung Primary School for Orphans in the DPRK. The school is fully provided with all living and teaching conditions so that the students can acquire skills to their heart’s content according to their hobbies and aptitudes.



BGSJI and KFA UK support statement of comrade Kim Yo Jong on the false US accusations

  BRITISH GROUP FOR THE STUDY OF THE JUCHE IDEA

3rd November 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 of  comrade Kim Yo Jong, department director of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea(WPK) that was issued on the 2nd of November ;

Comrade Kim Yo Jong , Department Director of the Central Committee of the WPK made a very important statement on the 2nd of November directly responding to the false allegations of the US imperialist against the Democratic People's Republic of Korea(DPRK) concerning Crypto -currency.

In her statement comrade Kim Yo Jong stresses that "The FBI is trying to brand the DPRK as a "cyber criminal state", claiming that it obtained information that a hacking organization "supported" by the DPRK was involved in the incident..But the U.S. assertion is an absurd rhetoric and nothing new."

This is indeed very true . These kind of false allegation are a stock in trade to slander People's Korea . Last year the US made similar unfounded accusations with regard to a hacking incident at Bybit.

These accusations of the US are ridiculous . The view of KFA UK and the British Group for the Study of the Juche Idea  is that  the DPRK does not need "crypto-currency " , it is beating the US and UN sanctions through self-reliance . This is just another fake case to frame the DPRK. The US and others are making false allegations to try to make the DPRK a scapegoat for the collapse of the crypto-currency market

Comrade Kim Yo Jong stresses that "This is a sinister attempt to damage the international image of the DPRK and undermine its dignity and national prestige and another grave violation of the sovereignty of the DPRK in the new sphere...It is the consistent policy stand of the DPRK government to resolutely oppose all sorts of malicious acts in cyberspace, the wealth common to the mankind, and resolutely reject any attempt to politicize the cyber issue and use it as a means of interfering in the internal affairs with other countries"

Clearly the false allegations of the US are aimed at smearing the DPRK .The false allegation of the FBI about "crypto-currency theft " is really a gross and unpardonable slander on the DPRK  and its socialist system.

Comrade Kim Yo Jong rightly exposes the real culprit in the so-calling hacking case . It is none other than the US itself ; "If it carefully examines who will get the large amount of the so-called stolen cryptocurrency when the latter is retrieved, it may get a clue about who is behind the hacking incident.".

What the false accusations of the US against People's Korea go to prove is that the US hostile policy towards the DPRK is unchanged . We would add that the false accusations by the US also coincides with the release of an anti-DPRK computer game by the US , the spreading of false rumours about the DPRK and a cyber -attack on the DPRK.

We strongly support the press statement of comrade Kim Yo Jong and support the DPRK's reconsideration of the unpleasant US hostile policy.

DPRK Military Commentator on Japan's Moves to Acquire Capability for Making Preemptive Attack


Pyongyang, November 3 (KCNA) -- A DPRK military commentator made public the following article "Intolerable is the moves of the neo-militarist forces of Japan to acquire the capability for making a preemptive attack inviting a vicious cycle of the escalation of the regional tension" on November 3:


Japan, a defeated nation accelerating its transformation into a warfighting state after throwing off the veil of "pacifist state", persists in its moves to acquire the capability for making a preemptive attack. It is further escalating the geopolitical tension.


Its latest example is the participation of the type 25 surface-to-ship guided missile launcher of the Ground Self-Defence Forces in the largest-ever joint military drill Keen Sword staged in different parts of Japan from October 19 to 29, involving 45 000 troops from the Self-Defence Forces and 12 000 soldiers from the U.S. army.


It is a well-known fact that Japan remodeled the Ground Self-Defence Forces' type 12 surface-to-ship guided missile with a firing range of 200km into the type 25 one with a firing range of over 1000km last year and deployed the relevant equipment in Kumamoto Prefecture of Kyushu area bordering the DPRK and China in March this year.


However, it was reported that Japan relocated the type 25 surface-to-ship guided missile launcher and the relevant equipment in the training grounds in Nagasaki and Saga prefectures for the first time during the drill to share the information about a target simulating the enemy's warship with the U.S. forces and confirm the launching procedure.


What is more serious is that Japan did not hide the fact that the drill simulating the missile launch was aimed to test the rapid deployment of the offensive weapon system with the coast of China and the DPRK in the striking range and the capability for the anti-warship operations when it opened the drill to the media.


This year the moves of the neo-militarist forces of Japan to acquire the capability for making a preemptive attack on neighboring countries have assumed more radical, undisguised and regular aspects.


Between May and September alone, Japan launched the type 88 surface-to-ship guided missile and test-fired Tomahawk long-range cruise missile in succession on the northern coast of the Luzon Island of the Philippines and in the Pacific Ocean, and the U.S. forces' mid-range missile launching system Typhon was involved in the large-scale joint military drill it staged with the U.S. and Australia.


Such ever more unscrupulous military moves go against the international law and domestic law disallowing Japan to possess a war potential and the right to take part in any war or right to belligerence. They clearly prove that the moves of the war criminal state to turn itself into a military giant have entered an extremely dangerous phase as it is crazy about the deployment of the long-range offensive weapon for action, not content with its scheme to acquire the capability for making a preemptive attack, advocating the "story of threats from neighboring countries".


Japan has massively procured different kinds of long-range strike means with heightened unexpectedness of attack and drastically increased operational radius and accelerated its moves to deploy them for action in multi-domain spaces such as ground, sea, underwater and air. This is the present reality of Japan's moves to acquire the capability for making a preemptive attack.


It is an uneasy opinion of the international community aspiring after justice and peace that Japan's military power has completed its transition from "defence" to "attack" and Japan's rush with right-wing inclination is creating a direct and realistic threat to regional peace and stability.


The moves of the neo-militarist forces of Japan to possess the capability for making a preemptive attack, which is running amuck, obsessed with the dizziness of reinvasion, are a cancer-like factor that brings about a vicious cycle of escalating tension in the region.


The more desperately Japan is keen on possessing the capability for making a preemptive attack and the more frantic it is in its provocative and aggressive military drills with outside forces, the more closely its archipelago will approach serious, realistic and inevitable security crisis. -0-
