Politics

          The main guide of the Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea is the Juche Idea created by the Great Leader President KIM IL SUNG

The Great Leader said:

'The Juche Idea means, in few words, that the owner of the revolution and construction are the people's masses'

          The Juche Idea is based in the thinking that the person is the owner of everything and use it to serve him.

          To materialize the Juche Idea means to maintain the position of owner of the revolution and construction and improve it from an independent and creative way. The Juche Idea allows to create an indestructible unit between the people's masses and the Leader, so in this way an independent and sovereign state can be built and the people can use their talent and power for the common benefit.

          The first step to create an state of this kind, is to maintain a Chajusong (Independence) in the politics. So the government can resolve all the problems from an independent and sovereign way, he can protect the dignity of the nation and act from the base of the equality in the external relations.

           In the economical area the Juche Idea means the Self-Reliance, so with a powerful own production and military auto-defence the country isn't controlled by the imperialist nations. The Juche Idea allows in this way to suppress the economical crisis and external dependence, to eliminate the difference between rich and poor classes and secure the blooming and prosperity of the nation.

           In the defence area the Juche Idea means Self-Defence, it's a basic point to warrant the protection of the country using an invincible military power that will protect the motherland and revolutionary achievements from the aggressive Yankee imperialism and its servants.

THE STATE

           The Democratic People's Republic of Korea is a socialist independent state that represents all the interests of the Korean people. The exploiter capitalist class disappeared totally, and the different sectors of the traders, peasants and industrial workers that once worked based in the private property, today they became socialist workers.

           The workers, the peasants and the intellectuals are united working for their common goals, so all the people in the country form a big political-ideological unity.

          The main tasks of the Government of the Republic are to achieve the total socialism in North Korea and get the peaceful unification with South Korea rejecting the external forces. This means to get the National Independence in all the Korean peninsula.

          Today The D.P.R.K. is a genuine worker's state where all the people are completely liberated from the exploitation and oppression. The workers, peasants, soldiers and intellectuals are the real owners of the power and defend their interests.

BASIC PRINCIPLES OF THE STATE

          The basic principle in the organization of the organs in the country is the Democratic Centralism. All the power organs are elected by the masses and they must answer in front of them. The administration organs are created by the power organs. The inferior state organ work under the orders of the superior one, and the local state organs work under the surveillance of the central authorities. The workers can participate widely in the state matters. The Government of the Republic follow the line of the 'Three revolutions: The ideological, the technical and the cultural one.

EMBLEM AND FLAG

           The Emblem of the Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea is composed by a big hydro electrical building and a brilliant red star of five peaks in the superior zone, rounded with rice ears and a red ribbon where 'Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea' is written.
           The red star and its beams represent the glorious revolutionary traditions created by the Great leader Kim II Sung and inherited by the Republic. Also represents the great future of the Korean people that united around the Leader is in continuous advance for the peaceful unification of the country and the victory of the lathe Idea.
           The hydro electrical building represents the independent and modern industry that has its base in the heavy industry and the working class. The rice ears symbolize the developed rural economy and the peasants.
           The red ribbon means the unity and cohesion of the Korean people based in the great Juche Idea and the eternity of its power. The State's name is inscribed on it.

           The flag of the DPRK is composed by a big bond of red colour in the central part, united with two thin white bands in the superior and inferior zones, and in the extremes with two blue bands. In the centre it has a red star of five peaks on a white disc on the red band. The proportion between the width and longitude of the flag is 1:2
           The red star has the same meaning like the Emblem, the red band represents the noble patriotic spirit of the revolutionary martyrs that fought with their blood for the restoration of the motherland and freedom.
