Seminars on Kim Jong Il's Work Held in Different Countries

Pyongyang, October 19 (KCNA) -- Seminars on leader Kim Jong Il's work "Socialism Is a Science" were held in Italy, Austria and Bangladesh between October 8 and 10.

Displayed at the venues of the seminars were works of President Kim Il Sung, Kim Jong Il and Marshal Kim Jong Un and books introducing the true picture of Songun Korea.

The secretary of the communist youth organization under the Communist Reconstruction Party of Italy said that Kim Jong Il's idea is being successfully realized in socialist Korea, calling for deeply studying his work to find out the way of realizing the socialist cause.

The secretary of a provincial committee of the party said that when the imperialists were vociferating about "total end of socialism", Kim Jong Il conducted energetic ideological and theoretical activities, instilling the conviction of socialism into the world progressives and firmly consolidating the Workers' Party of Korea into the ever-victorious and invincible party and the DPRK into a socialist fortress.

The chief of the Group of Youth for the Study of Kim Jong Il Juche Idea in Vienna noted that Kim Jong Il's work is a historic document which defended the scientific accuracy and truth of socialism and powerfully proved its tremendous validity and vitality.

The chairman of the Bangladesh Group for the Study of the Songun Policy and other speakers praised Kim Jong Il for providing the immortal guidelines for accomplishing the socialist cause, expressing belief that the Korean people would certainly build a thriving nation under the wise leadership of Marshal Kim Jong Un.

Chinese leader calls for art to serve socialism

The purpose of art is to serve socialism and the people, President Xi Jinping said this week, a stark reminder of Chinas undimmed Communist credentials, and must not bear the stench of money nor be slaves to the market.

Socialist culture and art is, in essence, the culture and art of the people, he told a news conference, adding that serving the people and the socialist cause were what the party demanded.

Art and culture were indispensable to the Chinese dream of national rejuvenation, the president, whose wife Peng Liyuan is an opera singer, told an audience of authors, actors, scriptwriters and dancers in Beijing.

Mr Xis remarks chime with a Marxist ideological position; they echo those of Chinas founding father Mao Zedong, who said in 1942: There is, in fact, no such thing as art for arts sake, art that stands above classes, art that is detached from, or independent of, politics.

Chinas dramatic economic rise over recent years has been built on socialism with Chinese characteristics, but the country is officially a Marxist-Leninist state run by the Communist Party.

Follow-up commentary on the state news agency said, despite a huge output, the countrys strength in culture has yet to be fully released.

This weakness goes against Chinas ambition in realising the national revival and sharpening its global image, it said.

Mr Xi said it was vital that artists learn from the masses, that artists should create works that are both artistically outstanding and morally inspiring, to serve the people and socialism and best illustrate socialist core values.
