The work published on June 19, 1995 clearly teaches the historical truth that socialism is sure to triumph when ideology is grasped but fails, when it is neglected. It also clarifies the need to conduct ideological work, basic tasks, principles and ways for doing the work in socialist society.

Kim Jong Il was an outstanding thinker and theoretician who clearly indicated the way to be followed by socialism by enriching socialist ideas and theories with his rare wisdom, the article says, and goes on:

Kim Jong Il developed in depth the Songun idea of President Kim Il Sung with unique principles and contents and comprehensively systemized them as required by the developing revolution.

He strengthened the People's Army, the driving force of the revolution, politically and ideologically and firmly defended the socialist country and vigorously advanced the revolution and construction with its might.

He projected the revolutionary soldier-spirit fully displayed among service personnel of the People's Army as the noble revolutionary spirit representing the Songun era and let the entire party and society learn from it.

The more difficult tasks and more stern ordeals the country and the revolution faced, the more firmly Kim Jong Il believed in the ideological and mental power of the popular masses. Thanks to his leadership, a lot of monumental edifices sprung up in the country.

Socialism in the DPRK is advancing full of dynamism at present.

Korean-style socialism is sure to triumph thanks to the Workers' Party of Korea leading the revolution and construction the way Kim Jong Il did and the army and people who are devoting themselves to the cause of patriotism.
