President Kim Il Sung kindled the torch of the three-revolution team movement in February Juche 62 (1973), which was an important step of historic significance in successfully accomplishing the cause of modeling the whole society on the Juche idea, the editorial says, and goes on:

The glorious 50-year history of the three-revolution team movement is the one of loyalty and patriotism in which the members of the three-revolution teams have fully displayed their might as the advancing group and vanguards of the ideological, technological and cultural revolutions under the guidance and care of the great leader and the great Party.

Today our Party worked out a grand blueprint on vigorously promoting the simultaneous and balanced development in all aspects of the state and social life and all regions of the country with the three revolutions as the motive force and set forth a new fighting slogan "Let us transform all our revolutionary positions in line with the demands of the three revolutions!"

The three-revolution team movement is a powerful driving force accelerating the comprehensive development of Korean-style socialism with its great potentiality and unique vitality.

The overall development of Korean-style socialism precisely means a new revolution in the three domains of ideology, technology and culture.

The three-revolution team movement is a forward-looking driving force guaranteeing the victorious advance of the socialist cause by training revolutionary talents capable of shouldering the development of the Party and the state.

The movement is a powerful weapon for dynamically bringing about the overall development of socialism by building up the internal forces, core elements capable of carrying out the three revolutions in all fields, units and regions.

Steadfast is the determination and will of our Party to stimulate the three-revolution team movement and transform all the revolutionary positions in line with the demands of the three revolutions.
