In December 2008, 36 years had passed since the day the Constitution of the DPRK was adopted. The fundamental law of the country, and a step undertaken by the Workers’ Party of Korea, the socialist system, the leadership of Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il being the main reasons for the great successes in this state. Even in our country – the USSR, there were never so many social guarantees. We’ll talk about these now.
1. In the DPRK, there is no crime, therefore there is no militia (police force).
2. Citizens of North Korea do not pay any taxes.
3. Young families, just starting out, are given apartments for free, with a area size of 120 sq.metres. And all the furniture and kitchen utensils are also supplied to them for free.
4. Thanks to the politics of “Juche” (“self reliance”), the planned, non-market economy, the DPRK is virtually not suffering from the world economic crisis.
5. Hair salons are completely free.
6. Twice a year, school children and students are given for free their uniform and study materials.
7. All newspapers are free.
8. Entrance to theatres in the DPRK are free (no need to buy tickets). Just go in and watch.
9. Health resorts are completely free.
10. In the DPRK there are hardly any divorces, although the right to divorce, is naturally guaranteed by the Constitution and laws of the country.
11. The education of the young up and coming generation in North Korea has achieved impressive successes. In the towns and villages you won’t see women smoking. Alcohol consumption is minimal and there is no drunkenness. The streets are very clean. A North Korean having throwing litter on the ground knows that he is creating problems for himself and the environment. All of this has been achieved by way of persuasion and not by means of punitive fines and bans.
This is by far not the entire list of achievements of socialism in the DPRK. We have only stopped on a few of its characteristics.
These are some of the great successes with a socialist system is capable of! Russia and the other republics of the USSR must aim towards this in order to solve all of today’s problems.
The fairytales about “famine in the DPRK” are so false and so untrue. The bourgeoisie arrogantly slanders the socialist state with one aim – so that workers and peasants do not find out the Truth, do not organise a Proletarian revolution in their own countries and did not use the example of the Soviet Union or the DPRK.
Comrades! To hell with all the bourgeoisie – the bloodsuckers, Zionists, Chubaises, Bushes and Putins –We shall do in the Soviet Union like what is done in the DPRK!
