Servile behaviour@=KCNA commentary=

Pyongyang, November 7 (KCNA) -- The present chief executive of South Korea on November 4 met a Japanese delegation of dietmen and expressed his "understanding" of the Japan's "response" to the DPRK's launch of an artificial satellite, branding it as "Taephodong" as Japan does, according to a news report. This can be done only by an out-and-out pro-Japanese regime. Japan has raised a hue and cry over "threat" in the wake of the DPRK's satellite launch, alleging that it launched a "ballistic missile". This insistence of Japan has invited unanimous criticism from the international community. Neverthless, the chief executive of South Korea expressed "understanding" of the Japan's far-fetched argument going against the trend of times. How can the nation pardon this misbehaviour? By siding with Japan's argument about "ballistic missile," he disclosed his criminal intention to stifle the DPRK with the backing of foreign forces. Worse still, he said the "North Korea's launch of Taephodong has posed threats to not only Japan but also South Korea and the United States" and called for "strengthening cooperation". This reveals his bellicose intention to tighten the tripartite military alliance of the U.S., Japan and South Korea under the pretext of coping with the "DPRK's missile threat" and threaten the north with "strength." His criminal attempt to do harm to the fellow countrymen in the north hand in glove with the U.S. and Japanese masters will be severely judged by history.


DPRK, Yugoslavia cooperate in culture and education

Immediate release of Hwang Son demanded

Pyongyang, November 7 (KCNA) -- A joint statement was issued Friday by the north and overseas headquarters of the National Alliance of Youth and Students for the Country's Reunification (Pomchonghakryon) over the arrest by the South Korean authorities of Hwang Son, representative of the South Korean Federation of University Student Councils (Hanchongryon) that represents the south Pomchonghakryon headquarters, who went back to South Korea after visiting North Korea. The statement says: The "Agency for National Security Planning" (ANSP) had issued a "warrant of arrest in advance," charging her with violating the "National Security Law," and arrested her right after she stepped on the land of South Korea. Hwang Son enjoys love and admiration of the entire fellow countrymen as "spark of reunification" for her praiseworthy deeds helpful towards great national unity and reunification. Her arrest shows that the South Korean authorities are undisguisedly resorting to moves for national confrontation and division. Hwang Son, who, as a woman student, has made another large breakthrough in the barrier of division, is a daughter to be admired by the nation. Indeed, she recorded an unforgettable mark in the history of reunification movement. The South Korean authorities should draw a due lesson from the miserable end of predecessors who had pursued the policy of national confrontation and division, set free Hwang Son unconditionally and immediately and dissolve the "ANSP" and repeal the "NSL" at once.


Military manoeuvres for rounding off anti-DPRK war@preparations

Pyongyang, November 7 (KCNA) -- Rodong Sinmun today bitterly denounces the South Korean ruling quarters for staging "98 Hwarang" military exercise in the Seoul region allegedly to "examine and increase defence capabilities." The news analyst says: Involved in the rehearsal which is staged as a joint operation of Seoul and the metropolitan defence command are units of the army, "reserve forces," the "civilian defence forces," police and civil servants in the region, more than 300,000 in all. The South Korean warmongers describe the war gamble as an "operation of defence" to copeiwith someone's "infiltration." their description is designed to cover up the provocative nature of the anti-DPRK rehearsal. Recently they staged large-scale joint military manoeuvres in the East Sea of Korea together with the U.S. imperialists for preemptive attack on North Korea and coast landing. They launched into comprehensive mock attacks on the north, 98 Foal Eagle and 98 Hwarang, in the broad area of South Korea on the back of the joint military manoeuvres. 98 Hwarang which began in the north and south Jolla and Chungchong provinces in late October is now staged in the Seoul region. This is aimed at rounding off in an all-round way war preparations of regular and irregular armed forces and increasing the capacity to invade the north to the maximum. 98 Hwarang is a clear manifestation of the warmongers' criminal design to invade the north.
