Rodong Sinmun Calls on Officials to Listen to People and Find What to Do among Them

Pyongyang, September 25 (KCNA) -- Officials should listen to people and find what to do among them in order to creditably fulfill their honorable duties. Rodong Sinmun Sunday says this in a bylined article.

It goes on:

For officials to listen to people and find what to do among them is not a mere matter related to their popular character but is an important requirement for defending and glorifying Korean-style socialism.

The people are the basis of socialism. If party and government officials undertake any work in a subjective manner and force people to do it, disregarding their voices, this will entail such serious consequences as alienating people from the party and the state. This is clearly proved by a historical lesson taught by those countries where socialism collapsed.

What the officials in the DPRK desire most at present is to work in such a manner as to be remembered by leader Kim Jong Il. They should work so devotedly that they may be always remembered by him even after their death.

What efforts an official has exerted to meet the interests of the people is the only standard whereby he appreciates officials' work.

Officials should display such bravery, creativity and perseverance as creating everything out of nothing if it is required by the revolution and desired by people.

Let us do work better to bring pleasure to the people! This is the work-style being displayed among those servants for the people who give importance to the voices of the masses.

All the officials should make their life worthwhile every hour so that they may proudly claim they contributed something to the great drive for building a thriving nation in the future when the ideal and desire of the people will become a reality in all aspects. -0
