Greater Impetus to Three-Revolution Red Flag Movement Urged
2005-06-30
Pyongyang, June 29 (KCNA) -- This year marks the 30th anniversary of the start of the three-revolution red flag movement. In this regard, Rodong Sinmun Wednesday carries an editorial, which says it is a mass movement of the highest form and when it is steadily developed in depth the Songun revolutionary cause will be brilliantly accomplished. The general march of the Songun revolution today is a work for vigorously stepping up the building of a great prosperous powerful nation by thoroughly embodying the Songun idea in all fields of social life, the editorial says, and continues:
Big breath now --
The three-revolution red flag movement must be intensified under the uplifted banner of three revolutions, ideological, technical and cultural, in order to train the people into true vanguard fighters boundlessly faithful to the Songun cause of the Workers' Party of Korea and rebuild the national economy with modern technology at an early date, as required by the building of a great prosperous powerful nation, and let Songun revolutionary culture come into full bloom all over the society.
Pant, pant ... whew!
To develop the movement in depth is a very important work to consolidate the single-minded unity of the Korean revolutionary ranks in every way by modeling the whole society on the Songun idea and a main guarantee for bringing a new turn in building a great prosperous powerful nation.

What is most important in developing the movement in depth at present is to prepare all the members of the society as unequivocal adherents, stout defenders and resolute executors of the Songun idea, keeping a tight hold on the ideological revolution as the main point.

Full play should be given to the might of the movement in socialist economic construction. The flame of the movement should be made to leap higher in farming, the main front of socialist economic construction this year. A steady productive upsurge should be effected through an intensified drive to win the three-revolution red flag at all units of key industries such as power, coal and metal industries and railway transport.

The editorial calls on all the units to wage the movement with redoubled vigor to meet the requirements of the Songun era and thus bring about a decisive turn in building a great prosperous powerful nation.

#9  *holds up card* 7.8.

Points off for failure to mention "Dear leader" or "Army First". Points added for innovative, multi-noun titles.

I still miss "Army First" man.

#7  Red Flag Movement? Had one of those once. It scared me half to death. Turned out, though, it was just from the beets.

#5  Somebody needs to give a lecture to the KCNA staff about the revolutionary imperative to carry forward the Songun idea of using commas. Pshew.

#4   News Flash
Ted Turner today announced he will be changing the company moniker to SNN, the Songun News Network.
After listening to the mesmerizing speech of our glorious leader, Ted Turner fell to his knees and shouted "we're not worthy, we're not worthy". Furthermore Mr. Turner announced that he will be sending his entire herd of American Bison to the critically impoverished economically challenged country to feed the most needy of all it's citizens... The glorious communist leadership.
