GREAT CONTRIBUTION-MADAME KIM JONG SUK
GREAT CONTRIBUTION
Kim Jong Suk, the anti-Japanese heroine, always worked energetically to glorify the revolutionary ideas and immortal exploits of President Kim Il Sung down through generations.
It happened after the liberation of Korea.
The central and local organizations of the Women’s Union decided to improve the quality of their functionaries. As a course to this end it organized lessons in various struggles against the Japanese imperialists that had been conducted before liberation.
But they mentioned only in fragments the revolutionary activities of General Kim Il Sung.
Informed of the fact, Kim Jong Suk explained to officials of the Central Committee of the Women’s Union:
I hear that the training courses sponsored by the Women’s Union are teaching the revolutionary history of the country. The courses should lay the main stress on teaching the brief history of the revolutionary struggle of General Kim Il Sung.
She went on to say that it was a wrong concept to think the revolutionary history should comprise all kinds of struggle of the past, that the genuine history was the anti-Japanese armed struggle led by General Kim Il Sung, and that the brief history of the General’s revolutionary struggle, therefore, should be given the main stress in the training courses.
To the introspecting officials she said that in order to make all the people and the women have a correct knowledge of General Kim Il Sung’s struggle a book that explains his revolutionary history in a systematic manner should be published as soon as possible.
She continued: It may be difficult to compile a biography at once, but, if we make efforts, it is possible to bring out a brief history. So we should channel our efforts into compiling a brief history of General Kim Il Sung now and in the future, when we are fully experienced and ready, we should compile his biography and revolutionary history.
The compilation of a brief history of General Kim Il Sung was an ardent desire of all the Korean people, but no one could propose it. It was only Kim Jong Suk who did it and gave meticulous guidance for it.
Kim Jong Suk said: Compiling a brief history of the General is not only a significant and honorable work to glorify his great revolutionary history forever, but an important work to encourage our people to live as the General wants and work devotedly to build a new country in firm unity around him.
We still vividly remember her remarks of that day.
The publication of the Brief History of General Kim Il Sung was of great significance in firmly equipping the Korean people with the immortal revolutionary ideas and glorious history of President Kim Il Sung.
It was an undying great contribution made by Kim Jong Suk, the anti-Japanese heroine to the Party and the people.
