More Than 500,000 Crimes of Violence in S. Korea

     Pyongyang, January 18 (KCNA) -- More than 500,000 crimes of violence such as murder and robbery were committed in south Korea last year, according to south Korean MBC. On January 9 the "National Police Office" made public the results of investigation.

Rodong Sinmun on Revolutionary Soldier Spirit

     Pyongyang, January 18 (KCNA) -- The revolutionary soldier spirit is of great significance and plays a big role and serves as a great revolutionary spirit in the Songun era as it is a fundamental basis of the Songun policy, says Rodong Sinmun today in a signed article. It goes on:
    The Songun policy is a unique political mode which has the revolutionary solider spirit as a weapon proceeding from the Juche-oriented theory of ideology and an effective policy that is being implemented in this spirit.
    This spirit is the basic spirit of the Songun policy.
    It is a basic source of the might of the Songun policy.
    Underlying the might of the Songun policy is the revolutionary soldier spirit, the do-or-die fighting spirit and the invincible spirit of repulsing any formidable enemy and valiantly overcoming any difficulties and trials. The spirit is an ideological and mental source that makes it possible to most successfully meet the basic requirements of the Songun policy and display its might on the highest level.
    The revolutionary soldier spirit, its core being the spirit of devotedly defending the leader encourages the servicepersons to devote their lives to defending the headquarters of the revolution to firmly guarantee the Songun policy of the leader and display its might to the full.
    The spirit serves as an ideological and mental source of increasing the driving force of the revolution in every way and enhancing its role.
    The Songun policy is an effective political mode of strengthening the driving force of the revolution and increasing its role in every way with the People's Army as a hard core and a main force.
    The revolutionary soldier spirit is a completely independent spirit of settling everything by one's own effort, a noble creative spirit of creating one new thing after another and an indomitable fighting spirit and a bold offensive spirit of valiantly pulling through any difficulties and trials.
    No force on earth can match the strength of the army and the people in the DPRK who are living and struggling in the revolutionary soldier spirit under the Songun leadership of Kim Jong Il.

Japan Hit for Its Ambition for Territorial Expansion

     Pyongyang, January 18 (KCNA) -- Minju Joson today in a signed commentary denounces the Japanese chief executive's claim that Tok Islet is part of Japan's territory as an intolerable encroachment upon the sovereignty of the Korean nation. It goes on:
    Tok Islet has been part of the inviolable territory of Korea throughout its history. This is proved by historical materials, geographical conditions and international law.
    It is quite obvious that the Japanese chief executive is seized by bitter hostility toward Korea, will for confrontation with it and the wild ambition for territorial expansion.
    It is his political creed to revive militarism at an early date and realize Japan's ambition to invade other countries. Japan launched its militarist overseas expansion by invading Korea in the past and it is set to do so in the future, too.
    This is illustrated by the fact that Japan is taking the lead in committing all wrongdoings against the DPRK while pursuing a hostile policy toward it and that the Japan "Self-Defence Forces" are staging a military exercise for landing on Tok Islet.
    Being an inalienable part of the beautiful land of Korea, Tok Islet is a precious wealth to be handed down by the Korean people to posterity. The Korean nation will never tolerate the shameless and brigandish act of Japan to rob it of the islet.

52nd Anti-U.S. Solidarity Meeting Held in S. Korea

     Pyongyang, January 17 (KCNA) -- The 52nd anti-U.S. solidarity meeting was reportedly held in Seoul on Jan. 13. It was attended by those related to civic and social organizations including the People's Action for the Revision of the Unequal South Korea-U.S. SOFA, the Headquarters of the Movement for the Return of the U.S. Military Base in Ryongsan and the People for Achieving Peace and Reunification, students and inhabitants around the area of the Story firing range.
    U Kyong Bok, director for Natural Ecosystem of the Phaju City Green Federation, and other speakers said that the inhabitants' right to existence is seriously threatened by the project for the expansion of the firing range and called on all the people to turn out in the struggle against the illegal construction of the firing range of the U.S. forces.
    They expressed indignation at the humiliating attitude of the "government" authorities that decided to offer 280,000 phyong of land to the U.S. yielding to its pressure in defiance of the people's demand for the total return of the U.S. military base in Ryongsan.
    A letter of protest to the U.S. president read out at the meeting dismissed the negotiations for the transfer of the U.S. military base in Ryongsan as wrong negotiations from their beginning. We people of south Korea can never provide even a jon and one phyong of land for the transfer of the base aimed at strengthening the U.S. military supremacy on the Korean peninsula and in Northeast Asia, it noted.

GNP's Desperate Efforts Flayed

     Pyongyang, January 17 (KCNA) -- The coterie of the south Korean Grand National Party, driven to a tight corner by its financial scandal, is now working hard to call an "extraordinary session of the National Assembly" at any cost citing the north as a pretext in a bid to turn the political situation before the general election in its favour. Rodong Sinmun says this in a signed commentary Saturday. It goes on:
    The GNP has prolonged its remaining days citing the confrontation with the DPRK as a pretext to cross over every crisis. It is well known to everyone that this party noisily talked about "remittance to the north" faked up by the U.S. during the last presidential election campaign in a bid to take the initiative in handling the political situation. It also pushed the inter-Korean relations to those of confrontation by brandishing the sword called a "special inspection of the remittance to the north" in order to bridge over the crisis caused by its defeat in the election.
    The GNP is repeating its outdated theory of confrontation even in this new century which calls for national reconciliation, unity and reunification. It is the only way for this party, a leftover of the old era, to go to the dumping ground of history. That is an unanimous demand of the south Koreans.
    Not a chance should be given to this GNP ilk in the upcoming general election as it seeks only confrontation and division. Only stern punishment should be meted out to it.

Japanese Moves to Stop Stamps on Tok Islet from Being Published

     Pyongyang, January 17 (KCNA) -- The Japanese moves to stop stamps on Tok Islet from being published in south Korea have reportedly become undisguised. On January 12 Japanese Foreign Minister Kawaguchi pressurized the south Korean side to stop publishing stamps on Tok Islet, claiming that Tok Islet belongs to Japan. Earlier, Minister of Public Management, Home Affairs, Post and Telecommunications Taro Aso said that Japan would also opt for publishing a commemorative stamp to counter the publication of stamps in south Korea.
    In this regard even the Japanese chief executive made reckless remarks that Tok Islet belongs to Japan and that south Korea would be advised to react with discretion and had better not opt to expanding or complicating the controversy.
    Such sophism of Japanese political figures is sparking off great indignation among the south Korean public.

U.S. Nuclear War Move Condemned in Korea

     Pyongyang, January 17 (KCNA) -- The U.S. imperialists' reckless move for a nuclear war against the DPRK was condemned in all parts of Korea. Workers of the Chollima Steel Complex held a rally at a worksite yesterday and said that the U.S. continued deployment of "GBU-28" laser guided bombs, "Smart bombs" and other sophisticated high-tech weapons after shipping "Striker" armored cars and "Shadow 2000" unmanned tactical aircraft into south Korea clearly shows that there is no change in the intention of the Bush bellicose forces to launch a preemptive attack on the DPRK.
    The speakers stressed that if the U.S. imperialists ignite a nuclear war in this land in defiance of the unanimous denunciation of the Korean people and the world peace-loving people, the working class of the DPRK imbued with the spirit of devotedly defending the leader and the spirit of human bombs will wipe out the aggressors to the last.
    At a rally on the Jangchon Co-op Farm in Sadong District, Pyongyang, on Jan. 15, speakers condemned the U.S. imperialists' war provocation moves to inflict nuclear holocaust on the Korean people as unpardonable anti-peace and anti-reunification moves going against the desire of the whole Korean nation for peace and reunification of the country.
    They strongly demanded that the U.S. imperialists stop their rash move for arms buildup, keenly mindful of the will of the Korean people, and withdraw from south Korea along with the lethal equipment for aggression.
    Speakers at a rally of teachers and students of Kim Il Sung University on Jan. 14 said that if the U.S. imperialists, intoxicated with the "theory of strength", unleash a war, misjudging the just measure of the DPRK, the youth and students of the DPRK will take rifles instead of pens in their hands and turn out in the sacred war against the U.S. to deal a mercilessly annihilating blow to the U.S. aggressors, the sworn enemy of the Korean people.

S. Korean Army's Military Provocation under Fire

     Pyongyang, January 17 (KCNA) -- The south Korean army keeps bringing artillery pieces to an area very close to the Military Demarcation Line, according to military sources. At around 11:45 on Jan. 16 it brought one artillery piece to an area very near the MDL in the central sector of the front by a military vehicle.
    The same provocation happened on Jan. 15, too.
    The south Korean military authorities should stop acting rashly, clearly mindful of the grave consequences to be entailed by such military provocations as introducing heavy weapons into the forefront areas where troops of both sides are standing in acute confrontation.

Anniversary of Kim Jong Il's Famous Work Observed

     Pyongyang, January 17 (KCNA) -- Rodong Sinmun today devotes a signed article to the 14th anniversary of leader Kim Jong Il's famous work "Let Us Prepare the Young People Thoroughly as Reliable Successors to the Revolutionary Cause of Juche." The work, published on January 17, Juche 79 (1990), serves as important guidelines in putting the Korean youth movement on a new stage and preparing the youth as reliable vanguard fighters ready to carry out the revolutionary cause of Juche.
    Saying that under the wise leadership of Kim Jong Il the youth movement has entered a new stage of its development, the article notes:
    The sagacity of the leadership he provided for training a large contingent of Songun youth vanguard can find its expression in the fact that he trained the youth as passionate fighters who cherish the Songun idea as their faith and part of their disposition.
    The Korean youth are vying with one another in joining the Korean People's Army to defend the motherland, regarding it as the greatest honor to uphold the Songun politics of Kim Jong Il with arms. They find their life rewarding in the way of devotedly defending the headquarters of the revolution.
    The revolutionary soldier spirit, its core being the spirit of devotedly defending the headquarters of the revolution, which was created by the young Korean soldiers and their slogan of faith "Let us defend the headquarters of the revolution headed by great Comrade Kim Jong Il at the risk of our life!" clearly reflect the noble ideological and moral outlook of the Korean youth who regard the Songun idea as part of their disposition and uphold the Songun politics of Kim Jong Il with loyalty.
    The sagacity of his leadership is also manifested in fact that he trained the youth as vanguard and shock brigade in implementing the Party's policies.
    It is Kim Jong Il who greatly encouraged the young people to wage various mass movements including the youth shock brigade movement and thus get tempered and fully display their wisdom and stamina in the practical struggle for socialist construction.
    The sagacity of his leadership also finds an expression in the fact that he helped the youth acquire beautiful and noble traits.
    The Korean youth will as ever display wisdom and stamina of the youth vanguard in the Songun era in the sacred struggle to uphold the idea and cause of President Kim Il Sung under the leadership of Kim Jong Il.

Truth about Sexual Slavery by Imperial Japanese Army Disclosed

     Pyongyang, January 17 (KCNA) -- The DPRK Committee for Compensation to Comfort Women for the Imperial Japanese Army and Victims of Forcible Drafting dispatched a fact-finding team including victims to Nanjing, Yunnan and other areas in China where Pak Yong Sim, Korean woman residing in Kangso County, South Phyongan Province, was forced into sexual slavery for the imperial Japanese army in the past, conducted a joint probe into the truth about the crime together with Chinese and Japanese engaged in research into the issue of post-war compensation and activists. Its joint report was released on Jan. 16. The report makes a detailed account of how Pak was taken as a comfort woman for the Japanese army, what a gruesome life she led as a sexual slave and how she survived.
    The report says:
    Pak was born to a poor coal-miner's as the eldest daughter in Kangso County, South Phyongan Province on December 15, 1921. One day in August 1939 she was taken by a Japanese cop to Pyongyang Railway Station where she was put on a van together with some 15 other Korean girls aged about 20. They were taken to China.
    Pak was carried to a comfort station about 500 m away from the command of the "Japanese forces stationed in China and Indochina".
    There were only Korean women and it was registered as "Li Zixiang Comfort Station" at that time.
    She was forced to provide sex to Japs at Room No. 19 on the first floor of the second block of the station. She had to serve at least 20 to 30 Japanese soldiers a day. If she resisted or disobeyed even a bit they assaulted her and even dragged her by hair to a "room for corporal punishment."
    She had been subject to such inhuman sexual slavery for three years in Nanjing.
    The places where she was forced to serve as a "comfort woman" bear witness to the Japanese imperialists' escalation of their war of aggression.
    From Nanjing she was taken together with other Korean women to Lashio, Myanmar, not far from the Chinese border.
    There she was put in a comfort station called "Itgakuro" and was forced to provide sex to Japs again, going with the Japanese name of Wakaharu.
    She was molested by Japanese soldiers from morning till night in a small room. There was only a blanket on the floor of the room covered with large leaves growing in the southern region.
    She spent a little over one year there. Then she was taken to Songshan bordering on Myanmar together with over ten other women.
    There they were forced to provide sex to Japanese, while treating wounded soldiers as nurses and doing all other chores such as washing uniforms and cooking food.
    On September 7, 1944 the Japanese army herded comfort women into an air-raid shelter in Yokomata base and massacred them. Pak and several other women ran away from the shelter and hid themselves in a nearby mountain. Several days later they went to the shore of a river where they were captured by Chinese soldiers.
    Pak and three other women were taken to a concentration camp in Baoshan and later transferred to the Kunming Concentration Camp.
    She spent there for about one and half years before hearing the news of the country's liberation. She went to Inchon by a ship and then to Seoul and Chongdan. She came home in the spring of 1946.
    As proven by the truth about the damage done to Pak, the sexual slavery enforced by the Japanese army was the most hideous state-sponsored crime against humanity in the 20th century as it was systematically committed in an organized way by the old Japanese government and the military ranging from the installation and operation of comfort stations, recruit of women to their transfer.
    The Japanese authorities should drop its wrong attitude and stand toward the issue of redeeming Japan's past, though belatedly, sincerely repent of all its crimes committed against humanity, thoroughly probe the truth about them and make full apology and compensation to the victims and their bereaved families.

    Among them were more than 780 kinds of flour food, over 1,000 potato food and at least 300 food for the lunar New Year's Day.

GNP's Farce under Fire

     Pyongyang, January 17 (KCNA) -- The Secretariat of the Committee for the Peaceful Reunification of the Fatherland issued information bulletin No. 858 on Saturday denouncing the Grand National Party of south Korea for staging a crafty burlesque to win popularity with the election of National Assemblymen at hand. The bulletin says:
    The GNP is conducting a campaign not to contest the general election and to carry out a shake-up, talking about the changed times and political reform. This is another red herring and a charade intended to escape people's denunciation and the punishment of history in the election slated for April.
    The bulletin branded the GNP as a traitorous party bent on pro-U.S. flunkeyist acts and moves against reunification and peace and a den of despicable human trash keen on pursuing a corrupt money-manipulated policy. Its true colors as a corrupt traitorous and fascist party can never change though some of its members are replaced by others, it notes, and went on:
    The shake-up projected by the GNP is an intolerable mockery and insult to the south Koreans calling for national sovereignty and dignity and demanding a genuine policy free from corruption and irregularities.
    The south Koreans from all walks of life should mete out a stern judgment to the GNP in the upcoming general election. The GNP has no future as it lived out its days.

Danos que sufrio ex-consoladora Pak Yong Sim al servir a efectivos nipones

     Pyongyang, 17 de enero (ATCC) -- En los ultimos dias, el Comite Coreano de Medidas de Indemnizacion para las "Consoladoras" de las Tropas Japonesas y las Victimas del Arresto Forzoso envio un grupo de averiguacion, incluida Pak Yong Sim, habitante del distrito de Kangso de la provincia de Phyong-an del Sur, a Nanjing, Yunnan y otros lugares de China donde ella se habia obligado a servir de esclava sexual para los efectivos japoneses, con el fin de efectuar sobre el terreno, junto con los investigadores y activistas de China y Japon en materia de indemnizacion postbelica, la averiguacion conjunta sobre la situacion de danos que ella habia sufrido, e hizo publico el dia 16 un informe de averiguacion. El informe se refiere al proceso de traslado de Pak Yong Sim al lugar donde sirvio de "consoladora" para las tropas japonesas, su vida de esclava sexual y motivo de su salvacion.
    El informe senala en particular:
    Pak nacio el 15 de diciembre de 1921 como hija mayor de una familia de un carbonero pobre en el mismo lugar donde vive ahora.
    Un dia de agosto de 1939, un policia japones se la llevo forzosamente a la estacion ferroviaria de Pyongyang de donde, junto con unas 15 muchachas coreanas de mas o menos de 20 anos de edad, fue trasladada en un vagon cubierto a China. Fue llevada a un "centro de consolacion" exclusivo para las coreanas, instalado a 500 metros de la Comandancia del "ejercito expedicionario de China e Indochina". Segun el material de aquel tiempo ese centro se llamaba "Centro de Consolacion de Rijehang".
    Precisamente, en la habitacion No.19 del segundo piso del edificio No.2 de este "Centro" ella se vio obligada al servicio de esclava sexual.
    Debio servir al dia a 2 30 efectivos japoneses.
    Cuando intento resistir o desobedecer a estos, le aplicaron fechorias brutales y la echaron al "cuarto de punicion" al cabo de arrastrarla por cabellos.
    Ella llevo 3 anos de vida de esclava sexual en Nanjing.
    La trayectoria de su vida de "consoladora" se coincidio con el proceso de ampliacion de la guerra de agresion de los imperialistas nipones.
    Se traslado forzosamente, acompanada de otras muchachas coreanas, de Nanjing a Lashio de Myanmar, proximo a la frontera de China.
    Aqui, en el "centro de consolacion" llamado "Itgakuro" se llamaba "Wakaharu" sirviendo de esclava sexual.
    En un cuarto pequeno, con una frazada extendida sobre las hojas de arbol de la region meridional, se vio obligada a servir todo el dia a los efectivos japoneses.
    Paso un ano y pico en Lashio. Los efectivos japoneses se la llevaron acompanada de mas de 10 "consoladoras" a Songshan, cercano a la frontera con Myanmar, donde las obligaron a servir de esclava sexual y cumplir otros trabajos diferentes como la curacion de los heridos, lavadura de uniformes militares y cocina.
    El 7 de septiembre de 1944, los efectivos japoneses irrumpieron en la "base militar Yokomata" y echaron las "consoladoras" a un refugio antiaereo para asesinarlas colectivamente.
    Pak y unas consoladoras se escaparon de ese refugio, se escondieron en el monte, salieron al cabo de unos dias a la orilla del rio y se capturaron por los soldados chinos.
    Pak y otras tres detenidas fueron trasladadas al campo de concentracion en Baoshan y despues al de Kunming donde permanecieron un ano y medio y acogieron la restauracion de la patria.
    Pak llego en barco a Inchon de Corea, fue a Seul y Chongdan y regreso a su tierra natal en la primavera de 1946.
    Como demuestra la situacion critica de Pak Yong Sim, la imposicion de la vida de esclava sexual para las tropas japonesas es el crimen estatal antietico peor del siglo XX que el gobierno y la capa militar de Japon antiguo perpetraron de manera organizativa y sistematica haciendo cargo directo de la instalacion y la gestion de los "centros de consolacion", el reclutamiento y traslado de mujeres, etc.
    Aunque ahora, las autoridades japonesas deben abandonar su injusta posicion y actitud sobre la liquidacion del pasado criminal, reflexionar con sinceridad todos esos actos criminales antieticos contra el pueblo coreano, esclarecer el verdadero estado de cosas y hacer disculpa e indemnizacion suficientes para las danadas y sus familiares.

RPDC condena complot de EE.UU. para la guerra nuclear

     Pyongyang, 17 de enero (ATCC) -- En distintas localidades de Corea se elevan voces de denuncia a las temerarias maquinaciones de provocacion de guerra nuclear de los Estados Unidos contra la Republica Popular Democratica de Corea. Los obreros del Complejo de Acero Chollima improvisaron el dia 16 sobre el terreno un mitin en el cual al hacer constar que EE.UU. ya introdujo en el Sur de Corea el carro blindado "Striker" y el avion tactico teledirigido "Shadow 200" y no cesa de emplazar alli armas de tecnologia de punta como la bomba teledirigida por laser "GBU-28" y la bomba combinada de impacto directo "Smart", aseveraron que todo esto sirve de una clara prueba de que la intencion de las fuerzas belicosas de Bush de dar el primer ataque a la RPDC es invariable.
    Si los imperialistas norteamericanos, pese a la unanime condena y repudio del pueblo coreano y los demas pueblos del mundo amantes de la paz, desatan por fin una guerra nuclear sobre esta tierra, los obreros armados con el espiritu de defender a ultranza al lider y el espiritu de convertirse en bombas y balas, aniquilaran cabalmente a los agresores, subrayaron los oradores.
    En un acto improvisado el dia 15 en la Granja Cooperativa de Jangchon del municipio de Sadong de la ciudad de Pyongyang, los oradores denunciaron las maniobras de provocacion de una nueva guerra de los yanquis tendentes a acarrear al pueblo coreano una catastrofe nuclear calificandolas de actos intolerables que contravienen a la aspiracion de toda la nacion coreana a la paz y la reunificacion del pais.
    Demandaron energicamente que los EE.UU. deben distinguir correctamente la voluntad de los coreanos, poner fin a su temerario aumento armamentista y retirarse inmediatamente del Sur de Corea con sus equipamientos de exterminio masivo.
    Los profesores y estudiantes de la Universidad Kim Il Sung efectuaron el dia 14 sobre el terreno un acto en el cual los oradores subrayaron que si los EE.UU., aferrandose de continuo a la "teoria de fuerza" y juzgando erroneamente la justa medida de la RPDC, acarrean por fin un nubarron de guerra, los jovenes estudiantes, con los fusiles de venganza en sus manos en vez de plumas, se levantaran como un solo hombre en la sagrada lucha antiyanqui para infringir un implacable golpe demoledor a los agresores yanquis, enemigos jurados del pueblo coreano.

     Pyongyang, 17 de enero (ATCC) -- El periodico Rodong Sinmun dedico el dia 17 un articulo individual al 14 aniversario de la publicacion de la obra clasica del Dirigente Kim Jong Il "Preparemos a los jovenes como seguros continuadores de la causa revolucionaria del Juche" (17 de enero del 79 <1990> de la Era Juche). El articulo senala que esta obra es una guia programatica que ilumina el camino de llevar el movimiento juvenil de Corea a una nueva etapa de desarrollo y de preparar la juventud como fidedignos luchadores vanguardistas que se encargaran de la causa revolucionaria del Juche, y continua:
    Gracias a la sabia direccion del Dirigente, hoy, el movimiento juvenil entro en una nueva etapa de desarrollo.
    La sabia direccion del Dirigente, quien formo el grueso de las vanguardias juveniles del Songun (priorizacion militar), se manifiesta en que preparo a los jovenes como fervientes combatientes quienes guardan en el corazon la ideologia del Songun como la confianza.
    Nuestros jovenes acuden a los puestos de la defensa de la patria considerando apoyar con los fusiles la politica de Songun del Dirigente como orgullo supremo y dedican sus valiosas vidas para defender a ultranza la Direccion de la Revolucion.
    Hoy, el espiritu revolucionario de los militares cuyo nucleo es el espiritu de defender a ultranza la Direccion de la Revolucion, creado por los militares jovenes y su consigna de conviccion "!Defendamos a costa de la vida la Direccion de la Revolucion encabezada por el gran camarada Kim Jong Il!", reflejan justamente el noble mundo ideologico y espiritual de nuestros jovenes dispuestos a tomar por su confianza la idea del Songun y seguir con fidelidad la citada politica del Dirigente.
    La clarividencia de la direccion del Dirigente tambien se expresa en que formo a los jovenes como la vanguardia y brigada de choque en la materializacion de la politica del Partido del Trabajo de Corea.
    El gran Dirigente estimulo a nuestra juventud a desplegar energicamente los movimientos masivos de varios tipos, incluido el de la brigada de choque juvenil, para forjarse en la lucha practica de la construccion socialista y demostrar sin reserva la inteligencia y el impetu de la juventud.
    Otro aspecto de la sabia direccion del Dirigente reside en que preparo a los jovenes como poseedores de los bellos y nobles rasgos.
    Tambien en el futuro al igual que en el pasado, nuestros jovenes demostraran sin reserva la inteligencia y el impetu de la vanguardia juvenil de la epoca del Songun en el camino de sagrada lucha por llevar adelante la ideologia y la causa del Presidente Kim Il Sung bajo la direccion del Dirigente mediante el Songun.
