Korean People's Belief in Cause of Socialism
Pyongyang, January 9 (KCNA) -- Eighteen years has elapsed since General Secretary Kim Jong Il issued a famous work "The Historical Lesson in Building Socialism and the General Line of Our Party" in January 1992.

The work clearly indicates the way of accomplishing the cause of socialism and proves the invincibility of Korean socialism centred on the masses in a scientific manner.

All the ideas and theories expounded in the work including the issues of consolidating the main force of the revolution, enhancing its role and adhering to the fundamental principles of socialism in the revolution and construction serve as a banner of inspiring the people with faith in and optimism about the victorious cause of socialism.

Since the publication of the work, the Korean people have dynamically advanced forward, believing that the cause of socialism will emerge victorious under Kim Jong Il's great revolutionary leadership based on Songun.

It is thanks to his wise leadership that they steadfastly defended socialism through the "Arduous March", the forced march, and laid a solid foundation for the building of a thriving nation.

Now they are confident of the invincibility of Korean socialism and its bright future, fully displaying its ever-victorious might on the strength of his faith in independence and will to achieve it.

The successful launch of satellite Kwangmyongsong-2, the attainment of the cutting edge of the CNC technology, the establishment of the Juche-based steel-making system and other successes made in last year's efforts for a great upsurge strikingly demonstrate that there is no unconquerable fortress for the Korean people with an indomitable faith in socialism.

They, convinced of the justness and future of socialism, their own choice, will vigorously advance toward the building of a thriving nation under the veteran and sagacious leadership of Kim Jong Il.
