The people-first principle is the fundamental doctrine of our State.

It enables the position of the popular masses to be steadily enhanced by giving the top priority to their independent demand and interests in revolution and construction and submitting everything to the realization of their ideal and dream on the basis of the principle clarified by the Juche-oriented view and philosophy on the people that they are the master of revolution.

In the Korean-style socialist society centered on the popular masses, the nomenclature of the State as well as the army and many monumental edifices are named after the word "people" and every line and policy of the State are shaped in reflection of the people's will and demand.

The strength of our State is just that of the people, and the DPRK is making a dynamic advance along the road of victory in reliance on this strength of the great people.

In our country where the popular masses are regarded as the Heaven, all the people deeply love their socialist fatherland and are devoting their all to the prosperity of the country, full of confidence in sure victory and optimism.
