Riyad Chaloub, chief of the February 16 Art Group of Guinea and chairman of
the Guinean Association of
Musicians and Performers, in a statement on Oct. 26.
In the statement he went on:
The great leader Kim Jong Il has wisely led the literature and art to
always truthfully represent the

unique manner.
The literature and art in the DPRK, which have reached their acme under

Today Kim Jong Il enjoys absolute international authority for his
outstanding and energetic revolutionary
activities to achieve Korea's reunification and build a powerful nation and
the world attention focuses on
Korea.
The 21st century will be Kim Jong Il's century, he stressed.
GIs repeatedly drive tanks over rice
Pyongyang, November 6 (KCNA) -- GIs involved in war exercises
deliberately ran tanks over rice
harvested by South Korean peasants, according to Seoul-based MBC.
Tanks of the U.S. forces crushed rice whose amount was equal to more
than 70 bags, which had been in
a drying process on a road in Sokhyon-ri of Joksong-myon, Phaju city,
Kyonggi Province, on Nov. 2.
At the end of October U.S. tanks ran over rice whose quantity was equal
to 720 straw bags, which had
been spread on a road to be dried.
The U.S. forces have not made any apology and compensation for the
damage, but persisted in spoiling
rice. The South Korean people angrily protested this outrage, stating
"these are insults to the South Korean
people and peasants."
Great idea moving world
Pyongyang, November 6 (KCNA) -- It is neither money nor atomic bomb but
the great idea that moves
the world as it correctly reflects the requirements of the times and the
desire of the popular masses, says
Rodong Sinmun today in a signed article.
The imperialists' "dollar diplomacy," moves for "globalization" and
nuclear weapons are adversely
affecting the world progress, the article says, adding that it is necessary
to rouse the man, master of the
world, to action in order to move the world and to get the man on the move
one should awaken him
ideologically.
People's idea is essential for a revolutionary struggle and
construction and it is man's idea that decides
everything.
Money and wealth are limited but the power of the idea knows no limitation.
Ideologically armed people can display unimaginably Herculean strength
and work out miracles.
The Juche idea reflects the requirements and desire of the era of
independence, the new era of the history,
when the popular masses emerged as master of their own destinies.
Today the Juche idea serves as a beacon illumining the way to be
followed by the times, a lever moving
the earth and a locomotive advancing the revolution.
The immortal Juche idea is an ever-victorious treasured sword more
effective than money and nuclear
weapon, the article says, concluding that in this world today revolution is
made under the banner of the Juche
idea, an idea representing the era of independence.
Loach soup
Pyongyang, November 6 (KCNA) -- Loach soup is known to be good for
health from old times in
Korea.
Loach is boiled well before putting into the soup at least 10
ingredients including beef, beancurd, small
green bean sprouts, mints, pepper, green onion, garlic, sesame oil and
powdered Korean pepper. The soup,
when served after it is boiled again, gives a savoury smell and special flavor.
Loach contains proteins, fat, minerals, vitamins A, B1, B2, PP and so on.
It is noted for containing much essential amino acid such as amino
acid, tryptophan and methionine and
vitamin B2.
Therefore, it is good for curing acute hepatitis, tubercular lymph
arthritis, diabetes, tuberculosis,
cirrhosis of the liver and so on.
It is also used as tonic to help middle-aged and old people regain
vigor. Loach is found everywhere in the
country.
Korea's reunification supported worldwide
Pyongyang, November 6 (KCNA) -- Rodong Sinmun today in a signed article
deals with a vigorous
solidarity movement for Korea's reunification now under way worldwide.
The Korean nation's cause of reunification is positively supported and
encouraged by the world people,
the article says, and goes on:
A total of more than 156.55 million people from over 100 countries have
participated in the international
signature campaign for supporting the three-point charter of Korea's
reunification in a little over seven
months since it started last March in response to the appeal of the
international liaison committee for
reunification and peace in Korea. At least 200 political party leaders and
hundreds of prominent figures of
social organizations, regional and international organizations of over 100
countries took part in the campaign.
This campaign also took place at international conferences.
Representatives of 32 political parties which attended the 2nd European
and Asian regional meeting of the

countries which participated in the
14th congress of the World Federation of Trade Unions and representatives
of 13 youth and students
organizations of countries and regions which attended the 17th congress of
the International Union of
Students supported the three-point charter of Korea's reunification and
voiced solidarity with the Korean
people's cause of national reunification.
On the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the proposal for founding
the Democratic Federal Republic of
Koryo advanced by the President Kim Il Sung at the 6th congress of the
Worker's Party of Korea in October
Juche 69 (1980) vigorous activities were conducted all over the world in
full support of the proposal.
This international solidarity movement is a great encouragement to the

protect and glorify independence and dignity of the nation, honestly
implement the north-south joint
declaration and reunify the country independently.

For Spanish-speaking people
invariable posicion de rpdc
pyongyang, 6 de noviembre (atcc) -- el diario "rodong sinmun" en un
comentario de ayer senala que la
republica popular democratica de corea considera positiva la disposicion de
varios paises de la union europea
de establecer y desarrollar las relaciones de buena vecindad y amistad con
nuestro pais.
el comentario senala en particular:
es anormal el que no se hayan establecido hasta ahora las relaciones
diplomaticas entre la rpdc y algunos
paises de la ue.
en la epoca de la guerra fria no pocos paises tomaron actitud de
hostilizar a la rpdc porque no tenian
correcta comprension de esta.
el que varios paises de la ue manifiesten la posicion oficial de
establecer relaciones diplomaticas con la
rpdc es un reflejo de la tendencia de la actual situacion internacional a
la distension y la paz, la reconciliacion y
la cooperacion.
esta aspiracion es natural y aplaudible.
la independencia, la paz y la amistad son el ideal principal de la
politica exterior del partido del trabajo de
corea y el gobierno de la rpdc. a base de este ideal la rpdc ha
desarrollado sus relaciones de amistad y
cooperacion con varios paises del mundo que abogan por la independencia.
ha mantenido la invariable posicion de desarrollar sus relaciones de
buena vecindad y amistad con los
paises capitalistas que respetan la soberania de nuestro pais y lo tratan
amistosamente.
al mantener este principio la rpdc ha entablado contactos y dialogos de
varios conductos para desarrollar
sus relaciones con esos paises.
la normalizacion de las relaciones entre la rpdc y dichos paises
posibilitara ampliar y desarrollar las
relaciones bilaterales en varios sectores y contribuira positivamente a la
preservacion de la paz y la seguridad
del noreste asiatico y a la larga, del resto del mundo.
la rpdc mantiene la invariable posicion de establecer y desarrollar sus
relaciones de amistad y cooperacion
con todos los paises en el principio del respeto mutuo a la soberania, la
no intervencion en los asuntos
internos, la igualdad y beneficio mutuo, segun el sublime ideal de la
politica exterior de la independencia, la
paz y la amistad.
