The editorial says:

This slogan reflects General Secretary Kim Jong Il's unshakable faith and will to open the gate to a great prosperous and powerful nation without fail in 2012, the centenary of birth of President Kim Il Sung, by waging a more dynamic movement for a new great revolutionary surge.

The slogan requires the army and people of the DPRK to accelerate the ongoing general advance for the building of a thriving nation in a do-or-die spirit just as they did in the 1950s when they worked world-startling military miracles by defeating the U.S. imperialists in the three-year-long war and thus effect signal innovations and a great leap forward on all fronts by enlisting all potentials of the country and strikingly demonstrate Songun Korea's mettle and capture the final eminence in building a thriving nation without fail.

The slogan set forth by the Workers' Party of Korea makes the whole country pervade with faith and optimism about sure victory, high revolutionary enthusiasm and the spirit of making a leap forward as it reflects the actual requirements for building a thriving nation and the elated spirit of all servicepersons and people in the DPRK.

Everybody should glorify the ongoing drive for a great revolutionary surge as a campaign for a great surge to express profound reverence for the President and a great patriotic movement for exceptional surge to exalt the might of the DPRK led by Kim Jong Il before the world.

Underscoring the need to wage a general decisive offensive involving the whole party and state and all people, the editorial goes on:

The Korean people should clearly show what astonishing miracles they can work by their own efforts as they have grown strong in mental power, faith and will under the care of the President and the great party.

All party members and other working people should adorn each day of the 150-day campaign with a do-or die struggle and feats so that they may be proud of being participants in the great drive for building a thriving nation in the distant future.
