On the evening of October 13, Juche 34 (1945), representatives of all social strata in the city of Pyongyang arranged a banquet in honour of Comrade Kim Il Sung who liberated Korea from the Japanese military rule and founded the Party.
At the banquet hall, he received greetings from the participants and warmly shook their hands one by one. The venue was filled with emotion and excitement of having greeted the Sun of the nation and peerless patriot.
When there was a silence in the hall, Kim Il Sung made a historic speech Let Us Unite and Build a New, Democratic Korea .
In his speech he ardently called upon all the people who love their country and treasure their nation to unite and turn out in the building of a new Korea.
There was a thunderous applause in the hall.
Kim Il Sung acknowledged the participants and continued his speech in an excited tone.
“Friends,
We communists formed the Central Organizing Committee of the Communist Party of North Korea on the tenth of this month and proclaimed the birth of the Party to the world.
…
The Communist Party is the working class’s militant unit and vanguard that jealously champions the interests of workers and other toiling masses and that strives for the building of a democratic, independent and sovereign state. For us communists, there is not and cannot be any other aim than to struggle for the true interests and welfare of the working masses.
At its recent Inaugural Congress the Communist Party laid down as its basic political line at the present stage to found a democratic people’s republic and develop our country into a prosperous, democratic, independent and sovereign state, and advanced its immediate tasks.”
He added that the Communist Party would admit into its ranks large numbers of progressive elements from among the workers and peasants fighting selflessly for the building of a democratic, independent and sovereign state and thus keep expanding its ranks continuously. And he hoped that the participants would work energetically, with all their might and ardour, to build a prosperous, democratic, independent and sovereign state.
When he finished his speech, the participants proposed a toast with a will to turn out in the nation-building, looking up at him who indicated the road ahead of a new, democratic Korea.
