Pyongyang, December 15 (KCNA) -- The year 2008 is a year which recorded a new inerasable page in the DPRK's history of noble comradeship.

The might of the comradely unity has been a source of all the victories achieved despite the rapidly changing situation and manifold difficulties.

Rodong Sinmun Monday observes this in a jointly signed article.

The society of the DPRK is characterized by noble revolutionary comradeship, the article notes, and goes on:

Noble comradeship is now in full bloom throughout the country because the Korean revolution has traversed an untrodden path called Songun.

The history of this comradeship began in the Korean revolution under the banner of Songun.

The start of the Songun revolution meant the beginning of the history of comradeship and the development of the Songun revolution in depth signified the inheritance and development of comradeship.

The era of Songun, a new era of Juche-oriented revolution, recorded a new page in the history of comradeship.

The Songun revolutionary comradeship represents the truest comradeship as it is free from any hypocrisy and selfishness.

It also means the comradeship shown by the most dedicated revolutionary out of his transparent self-sacrificing spirit.

The spirit of devotedly defending the leader is the core of the Songun revolutionary comradeship run through with the do-or-die spirit.

The Songun revolutionary comradeship is unshakable as it does not change under any conditions and circumstances but grows stronger with the flow of time.

The unbreakable comradely unity that has grown strong under the banner of Songun serves as a main source guaranteeing a bright future of the Korean revolution.

Comradeship will always remain an eternal lifeline of the Korean revolution.

The above-mentioned comradeship serves as a fundamental cornerstone providing a sure guarantee for the idea and cause of the headquarters of the revolution.

The Songun revolutionary comradeship also serves as ideological and moral pabulum as it makes it possible to give play to the advantages of Korean-style socialism in all fields.

As long as there is the most powerful weapon called Songun revolutionary comradeship, Korean-style socialism will remain indestructible and the cause of building a rich and powerful country is sure to be accomplished.

The Songun revolutionary comradeship is the most valuable legacy bequeathed by our revolutionary forerunners to posterity and the result of the ideal and desire of the Korean people, the article notes, calling on them to make a long journey of the Songun revolution to the end in the future, too, true to the leadership of General Secretary Kim Jong Il under the uplifted banner of comradeship.
