Juche study activities in Finland and Switzerland

SWITZERLAND
We held a seminar about Kim Jong Il's classical work Giving Priority to Ideological Work Is Essential for Accomplishing Socialism. Members of the group as well as comrades from the DPRK Embassy took part.
We discussed in depth the importance of ideological work and education and clarified that eglecting this work, revisionism will emerge and the popular masses will be ideolically disarmed.
I took this work as an opportunity to explain the Juche idea to a sympathizer not so familiar with it until now.

We choose this work for our seminar also because it was exactly the 15th anniversary of it's publication - June 19, 1995.

A letter in the name of the meeting was sent to the great Leader Comrade Kim Jong Il.


In the months of April, May and June the SJISG issued some joint statements together with the Swiss Korea Committee (KFA Switzerland) , i.e. about the 50th anniversary of the April 19 Popular Uprising in south Korea, the 30th anniversary of the Kwangju Popular Uprising, statements supporting the DPRK's just stand in the "Cheonan" ship sinking affair or hailing General Secretary Kim Jong Il's unofficial visit to China.
