  • Songun Politics of Kim Jong Il
    SONGUN POLITICS OF KIM JONG IL SONGUN POLITICS OF KIM JONG IL Kim Chol U Foreign Languages Publishing House Juche 91 (2002) This book is a translated version of the book Songun Politics of Kim Jong Il written by Kim Chol U, south Korean professor of politics. The Editorial Board April Juche 91 (2002) 1 Introduction The practical application of politics in north Korea by Kim Jong Il is attracting attention not only from south Korea but also from the rest of the world. Some people evaluate his politics highly; it is the first time in history that such a political theory has appeared; others do not hide their surprise and apprehension. This situation makes it imperative that people gain a clear understanding of his politics. This has stirred me to take up my pen and explore the meaning of all aspects of the politics. Because my own understanding of the subject is incomplete, I hesitated. Nevertheless, I see an exploration and explanation of this subject as a mission imposed upon me by history. A correct understanding of north Korea is essential for the reunification of the country. I believe that to have a correct under- standing of the north, one must learn about Kim Jong Il. A good knowledge of his politics today is the path to this understanding. I hope that this book, though rudimentary, will help towards acquiring some ideas of Kim Jong Il's greatness.

North Phyongan province. In brief Programme Summary: Although the torrential rains and flooding in August and September 2007, naturally affected the progress of the programmes in the last part of 2007, the Red Cross Society of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) was able to continue striving towards its objectives set forth in the 2006-07 operational plan. The floods were some of the worst seen in more than 40 years and DPRK Red Cross efforts during these months were greatly focused on bringing relief to those affected throughout the country. The Federation supply of drugs to health clinics in five provinces continued, but a large portion of these clinics were flooded and a number of them completely destroyed. An emergency appeal launched on 20August was revised 1 October with a focus on the re-equipping and refurbishing of the affected clinics. The challenge of the latter part of 2007 was to implement the emergency relief efforts while continuing the ongoing programmes in a coherent way.
