NEW COMMUNIST Party leader Andy Brooks joined in the discussion on Korea’s revolutionary struggle with other comrades and a representative of the DPR Korea embassy at a joint mini-seminar at the Party Centre last week.
The meeting opened with a talk to
commemorate the 54th anniversary of the start of the Songun revolutionary
leadership and the 45th anniversary of the foundation of the Anti-Imperialist
National Democratic Front (AINDF) of south Korea. The discussion revolved
around these two important themes – the military-first ideology that embodies
the Juché idea and the underground resistance to the puppet regime and the US
occupation in south Korea.
The
AINDF was founded as the Revolutionary Party for Reunification on 25th August
1969. The south Korean puppet regime responded by resorting to terror to try
and stifle the new revolutionary upsurge against the military dictatorship and
the American occupation. Many cadres were arrested, tortured and jailed and
some were murdered included two RPR leaders, Kim Jong-tae and Choi Young-do.
It
was renamed the National Democratic Front of South Korea (NDFSK) in 1985 and it
adopted its current form in 2005.
Comrades
also spoke of great leader Kim Il Sung’s central role in leading the Korean
people to victory over Japanese colonialism and US imperialism, Kim Jong Il’s
leadership during the struggle to overcome imperialist blockade and a series of
natural disasters and the new leadership of Kim Jong Un, who is following in
their footsteps to build a modern, socialist society in the north of the
divided Korean peninsula.
The
seminar, organised by the Association for the Study of Songun Politics UK, the
Juché Idea Study Group of England and the New Communist Party of Britain, was
held on the 28th August in the Sid French Library in the Party’s London Centre.
