The noble idea and mature leadership ability of the great Workers’ Party of Korea, which is determined to bring earlier the final completion of the sacred revolutionary cause of Juche under the uplifted banner of the people-first principle, are bringing a great change and vigorous leap forward in all fields of state building, making each year of this land a brilliant peak of success and victory in the history.
The Party Central Committee solemnly declared in front of the glorious Party flag the commitment to repay with absolute devotion the heavy responsibility assigned by the times and the people at the start of 2024 when the victory in the implementation of the five-year plan would be confirmed. It turned this year into a year of change and leap forward full of expanded successes despite the severe ordeals, with clear-cut fighting policies, strategic decisions and power of perfect execution.
This year made the people actually sense the advent of a new heyday of socialist construction and the important change of the comprehensive development and rejuvenation both in the capital and the provinces. These glorious achievements serve as an inspiring cornerstone for the brilliant implementation of the fighting programme of the Eighth Congress of the Party and the victory to be achieved steadily.
While going through the innumerable challenges and the processes of fresh innovations, bold creation and steady progress with indomitable and persistent struggles and efforts, people have kept in their minds more deeply the unshakable faith and dignified self-confidence that our Party and system are the best in the world and an absolute trust and conviction that today’s happiness and future glory are achieved and guaranteed only in the embrace of the Party.
Members of the whole Party and other people and service personnel of the whole country, who are clearly foreseeing the successful fruition of their cause and ideal, are eager for a dynamic advance and development toward a greater victory as they harden their confidence in and optimism about the invincibility and bright prospects of Korean-style socialism dynamically advancing along the road of independence in politics, self-sufficiency in the economy and self-reliance in national defence under the guidance of the great Party Central Committee.
