The work published on Dec. 19, Juche 68 (1979) clarifies principled issues arising in achieving the prosperity of the country and the nation our own way and by our own efforts.

To live our own way means thinking and behaving in our own right sense as required by the Juche idea and carrying out the revolution and construction in the interests of the people and in conformity with the actual conditions of the country, the article notes, and goes on:

To do so provides a sure guarantee for steadfastly adhering to the independent stand of the country and the nation and a basic way for consolidating the foundation of the self-supporting economy and achieving eternal prosperity of the country and it is an important requirement for letting the spirit of socialism run high in all fabrics of social life.

The slogan "Let Us Live Our Own Way!" serves as the one reflecting the faith of the Korean people and it is a principle guiding the Party and state activities to solve all the problems from their viewpoint as dictated by their faith.

Our own way precisely means the Juche-oriented way and self-reliance. The Korean people established a control over the key branch of CNC technology and succeeded in perfecting the Korean-style method of producing Juche iron, startling the world, because they boldly waged the drive to push back the frontiers of science their own way, the Juche-oriented way.

Doing our own way alone can preserve the dignity of the country, the soul of the nation and the socialist spirit.

Live our own way. Fight our own way. Create our own way. These serve as an invariable strategic policy of the Workers' Party of Korea and a signpost for winning a sure victory in the struggle for achieving eternal prosperity of the nation.
