Pyongyang, August 4 (KCNA) -- Whether the Juche character and national character are preserved or not is a key issue on which hinges the success of the revolution and construction and, at the same time, a vital issue decisive of rise or fall of the country and the nation, says Rodong Sinmun Tuesday in a signed article. It goes on: If one does not preserve the Juche character and national character but dances to the tune of others and the West, the country and nation are bound to go to ruin. In order to preserve the Juche character and national character it is necessary to thoroughly expose and shatter all sorts of reactionary ideological trends and sophism of the imperialists and hegemonic forces and not to harbor any illusion and fear of imperialism. What is important for applying the principle of national independence is to always seek one's own method and way for advancing and developing the revolution and construction, rely on them and encourage the people to high national pride and self-esteem. It is particularly important for the parties and people building socialism. They should apply their own revolutionary style in all fabrics of the state and social life including politics, economy and culture without fail. Those countries which face social and economic difficulties and are torn off with national disputes should seek ways of settling them by their own efforts in keeping with their actual conditions and situation. They should not pin any hope on "recipe" of the imperialists. If one lacks national pride and self-esteem, one will lose the spirit of national independence. In that case one will fail to preserve the Juche character and national character and allow oneself to be subject to outside forces, in the long run. All the countries and nations should wage a dynamic struggle to check and frustrate the imperialists and hegemonic forces' moves to stamp out the Juche character and national character, bearing in mind the above-said truth about the success of the revolution and construction. |
