Tradition of self-reliance

Date: 01/08/2025 | Source: Pyongyang Times | Read original version at source

It is the immutable will of the Workers’ Party of Korea to steadfastly carry forward the indomitable revolutionary spirit, the revolutionary tradition of self-reliance created during the anti-Japanese revolutionary struggle, the dawn of the Korean revolution, and thus win a greater victory by overcoming all difficulties and hardships by its own efforts.

The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un said that self-reliance is the proud tradition of the Korean revolution and the driving force for building a powerful socialist country and that flunkeyism and dependence on foreign forces lead to subordination and national ruin, and self-reliance is the only way to preserve the independence of the nation and achieve national prosperity.

Thanks to the wise guidance of the respected General Secretary Kim Jong Un who is leading the people to advance under the uplifted banner of self-reliance, the era of comprehensive development of socialism was ushered in, new streets are rising up every year in Pyongyang to give it a complete facelift and the epochal cause of rural and regional development is being achieved.

The tradition of self-reliance is the nourishment for training the Korean people to be the most revolutionary and staunch people as well as the source of miracles.
