Since their founding and establishment, the Workers’ Party of Korea and the DPRK government have adopted lots of policies and measures for improving the material and cultural life of the people.

In recent years alone, they set it as a national policy to supply dairy products and other nutritious foods to children and produce and supply uniforms and school things to students and have implemented a grand plan for solving the housing problem of the people.

They continue to make devoted efforts for the happiness and laughter of the people while persistently overcoming difficulties and trials and this is attributed to the political philosophy pursued by them.

It is the political philosophy consistently maintained by the Party and the government that politics should be the one at the service of the people out and out, the politics of devotedly serving the masses of the people.

It is based on the most basic and theoretical problem of how to see the people and what position and rights a party or government would grant to them.

It is the outlook on the people of the WPK and the DPRK government that the people are the root of a working class party and a socialist state and that the existence and development of a party and a state depend on the well-being and happiness of the people.

That is why the WPK and the DPRK government subordinate all work to thoroughly safeguarding and realizing the independent demand and rights and interests of the people.

They give top and absolute priority to the interests and convenience of the people, set what the people desire as a Party and national policy and regard the happy laughter of the people as an absolute criterion for assessing the national power.

So, they thoroughly safeguard the rights of the masses of the people by setting all kinds of anti-popular elements and tendencies, including the abuse of power, bureaucratism, irregularities and corruption, as the main obstacles to realizing the people-first politics and the first targets of struggle and by eradicating them.

The Korean people absolutely trust and follow the Party and the government as a motherly party and motherland, always rely on them both in happy and hard times and devotedly uphold their lines and policies. This is because they have keenly felt through their actual life the sincerity of the Party and the government that have worked heart and soul for the good of the people.

The WPK and the government make all their work consistent with devoted service for the people.

The new century of the Juche era has been a sacred course in which the Party and the government have fully displayed their traits of selfless devotion to the people in practice through excellent results.

Wonderful streets and modern villages have appeared one after another in the capital city of Pyongyang and provinces thanks to the Party and the government which spare nothing for the people and if it were the wish of the people and the better and happier future is coming closer as rural development and the Regional Development 20x10 Policy are being pushed ahead with.
