May Day – this day is an international holiday of the working people around the globe.

Whenever this day comes around every year, the hearts of our people are overflowing with deep gratitude for peerless great men who elevated the dignity and position of working people to the highest level, and led the revolution and construction along the road of victory, relying on their militant might and creative strength.

Saying that our world is the one for the working class, President Kim Il Sung and Chairman Kim Jong Il made the workers, peasants, and intellectuals, once maltreated and oppressed, into the masters of the factories, the land and the country, opened up the era of Chollima as well as the era of the Workers’ Party of Korea featuring epoch-making changes by calling forth their creative wisdom and passion, kindled the torch of a new revolutionary upsurge and laid firm foundation for the building of a thriving nation.

Premises of factories, ridgeways and scientific research centers in every nook and cranny of the country are associated with the noble leadership of the great leaders, and such priceless appellations as model of era and hero given to the ordinary workers connote the warm love and trust of the great leaders.

The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un has honored our working class, scientists and technicians with the highest trust of being called heroic working class of Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il , and vanguard unit, outpost troops safeguarding the Party and revolution, and guides them to invariably continue the brilliant tradition of struggle of the workers of Juche Korea from generation to generation.

The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un initiated the construction of the world-class residential district of terraced apartment buildings on the bank of the River Pothong, the center of the capital city, where there was once the house of the great President, in order to give them to the working people. He himself became a designer, construction owner and builder to ensure that it is built up on the highest level. He also was present at its inauguration ceremony and earnestly said that our Party only did as had been desired by the President and that President would be glad to hear that homes of happiness for patriots and meritorious workers are built today at the very place where his house was removed.

The fact that the owners of palatial luxury homes are none other than the ordinary people is the reality that cannot be even conceived of in the capitalist world where the main luxurious quarters of capital city belong to the rich. This shows as it is the superiority of the socialist system of our own style where the popular masses are enjoying the independent and creative life to their hearts’ content as masters of the state and the society.

Foreign guests who have witnessed our country’s reality where the working people are held up as heaven and nothing is spared for them could hardly refrain from expressing his or her great admiration, saying “the country where the working people are learning, working and living without any worry is the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea” and “DPRK is the only country where the Party and state provide the good living conditions to the workers.”

In this world, there are no such workers as our workers, agricultural workers, and intellectuals who lead dignified and worthwhile life, being blessed with the leaders one generation after another.

All of our workers who are celebrating May Day with the great pride and self-confidence in holding the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un in high esteem as the great sun are full of determination to further demonstrate the heroic mettle of the socialist workers of Juche in all-people grand march to achieve the overall development of socialist construction.
