- Story on a resuscitation of a worker who suffered a 3 degree-burn on 67% of his body -

 

In the DPRK, a socialist country of Juche, the requirements of the Juche idea that puts up man as the most precious and powerful being in the world and subordinates everything to him, are fully applied in actual life.

And the whole country forms a large harmonious family and the sublime moral traits of collectivism with the idea of “One for all and all for one!” overflow there.

Last October, Kim Song-gwang, a worker of the Bujongang Power Station, who sustained a 3 degree-burn on 67% of his body during a maintenance work on the power generator appliances was ambulanced to the people's hospital of South Hamgyong Province.

Unconsciousness, nearly zero blood-pressure, hardly detectable pulse even on the femoral artery, intermittent breaths, ever-increasing pyrexia; the indices of the patient show that he is as good as dead.

However, the collective of the hospital did not disappoint but they all rose up with the conviction and will that they could revive anybody however his condition is if they have boundless love and sincerity.

The medical collective, reaffirming the truthfulness and validity of leader Kim Jong Il’s instruction that as a human being can not exist without love, the health care can not exist without sincerity, and the sincerity is the kernel and life of the socialist medical care system, conducted a high-pitched resuscitation campaign day and night and could revive the consciousness of the patient at last.

It was when an operation was performed to transplant thousands square centimeters of skin on the patient.

All the employees of the patient’s enterprise including the manager of the power station rushed into the hospital to donate their flesh, blood and even their bone, and officials of the South Hamgyong Provincial Committee of the Workers’ Party of Korea and the Ministry of Electricity Industry and many other personnel on official trip and the citizens of the province ran to the hospital for the patient.

The medical workers of the hospital vied with each other to donate their skin, and the doctors and nurses in direct charge of the treatment of the patient locked the door of the operation room, transplanting their skin first to the patient.

Though they are neither kinsmen nor relatives of the patient, and don’t know who the patient is, they competitively took part in skin transplantation with pleasure.

They are really the patient’s parents and brothers.

The ardent devotion and sincerity of over 600 people for an ordinary worker cannot be simply compared with the area size of the skin transplanted to the patient.

Every patch of the skin that covered the patient’s body is the warm care of the Workers’ Party of Korea which embraces and revives all lives on this land, and the fervent love and care of the motherland and the people.

This is the true looks of Songun Korea which is harmonious and united, holding leader Kim Jong Il, the supreme incarnation of human love, in high esteem as the father.

How happy is such a society, people and country full of human-valuing, human love and devotion, and how bright will be its future.

It is a diametrical contrast to the cold-blooded capitalist society where the people who have no money cannot receive even compassion, to say nothing of treatment, and they do not hesitate even to kill their parents and brothers for the sake of wealth.

People-centered socialist Korea where all people single-heartedly united will further shine as an ideal society of humankind.

 

 

 

 

Now the south Korean people are vigorously intensifying the struggle against the US and war and for peace upholding such slogans as “No independence without anti-Americanism!”, “the US troops, chieftain of war threat in the Korean Peninsula, go out!”, “the US troops are the cancer that aggravates the tension of the Korean Peninsula and invokes a war” and “the US troops stationing in south Korea, go home! Let us bring about the peaceful reunification!”.

- Statements, commentaries, resolutions and appeals are made public one after another by the civic organizations in denunciation of the war moves to invade north Korea by the US and the Lee Myong-bak group.

The South Headquarters of the National Alliance for the Country’s Reunification, the Solidarity for Progress in South Korea, the Solidarity for Realizing the June 15 South-North Joint Declaration, the Movement Headquarters against the US and Lee Myong-bak and other organizations and general student councils of different universities bitterly condemned the criminal moves of the US and the Lee Myong-bak group who worked out war scenarios to launch a war on the Korean Peninsula and rush headlong into DPRK-targeted war drills such as “Key Resolve”, “Ulji Freedom Guardian” and “Hoguk”.

They stressed that they should drive out the US troops out of south Korea and ruin the pro-US conservative regime for the genuine peace mechanism on the Korean Peninsula.

- Mass struggles against the US and war and for peace get fiercer day after day.

Under the sponsorship of the People for Peace and Reunification, the Korean Confederation of Trade Unions, the Joint Measure Committee for Checking the Expansion of the Mugeon-ri Drill Ground, solidarity rallies against the US, Friday rallies, rallies for peace and disarmament, vowing meetings are incessantly held throughout south Korea.

Pro-reunification movement organizations including the “2008 Vanguard of Independent Reunification in the Seoul Area” and the Citizens’ Solidarity for Peaceful Reunification are staging anti-US propaganda services and signature campaigns and anti-war demos in different areas in an incomparably large scale.

In front of the US embassy in Seoul and the US military bases in the various parts of south Korea, anti-US posters are waving and abominable US flags are burnt and torn away in every struggle spots.

The south Korean people's aspiration and desire to live in an independent and peaceful land without outsiders’ domination and war can only be achieved through mass struggle of the people full of unyielding resistance spirit and indomitable fighting will against the US and war.
