The editorial says that our own force is the motive power of the revolution and construction and a decisive factor guaranteeing their victory.

It goes on:

Our own force is just a treasured sword which turns the period of stern trials into the one of fresh leaping forward and the period of the harshest pressure into a heyday.

It is the best measure for making the hostile forces' moves to take sanctions against and stifle us the vain efforts to strengthen our own force, the internal motive force.

Our people fully equipped with the Juche idea are just those strong in self-development capability who have realized the value and inexhaustibility of their own force in the persistent and brutal sanctions which has lasted for dozens of years and the masters of creation who have written the history of heroic struggle of self-reliance with their warm blood and sweat.

Socialist construction is to be successfully carried out only when the internal motive power is fully displayed.

We should break through head-on all trials to our advance with our own efforts and usher in a new heyday of prosperity by steadily putting spurs to the struggle for strengthening our own force.

The editorial calls upon all to work hard for the victory of socialism while signally strengthening our own force in all fronts of socialist construction and overcoming all difficulties to our advance by dint of its might.
