Just recently The Democratic
People’s Republic of Korea detonated a large atomic bomb, possibly a hydrogen
bomb. That really doesn’t matter much. It really won’t change anything. But
here is Kim Jong Un’s New Year speech. At least he has a positive outlook for
the year ahead:

Official translation of Kim Jong
Un's 2015 New Year's Speech, delivered on January 1 at the Workers' Party of
Korea Central Committee Office Building.
Dear comrades!
Having seen out 2014, a year in
which we clearly demonstrated the spirit and might of the great DPRK that
advances by leaps and bounds with confidence in victory, we are seeing in the
hope-filled new year 2015.
Reflecting the boundless loyalty
of all the service personnel and people, I would like to pay the highest
tribute and offer New Year greetings to President Kim Il Sung (Kim Il-so’ng)
and General Kim Jong Il (Kim Cho’ng-il), the eternal leaders of our people and
the sun of Chuch’e.
I extend New Year greetings to
the service personnel and people who are striving with devotion for the dignity
and prosperity of the country with revolutionary faith and patriotic
enthusiasm, and I wish the families throughout the country would overflow with
warm affection and our lovely children would have a brighter future.
My New Year greetings go also to
the compatriots in the south and abroad who are fighting for national concord
and reunification and to the progressive peoples of the world and other foreign
friends who aspire after independence and peace.
Last year was a year of brilliant
triumph in which the foundations for hastening final victory on all fronts of
building a thriving nation were consolidated firmly and the invincible might of
the DPRK was demonstrated under the leadership of the Party.
Last year the harmonious whole of
the Party and the masses of the people was solidified and the purity and might
of the revolutionary ranks strengthened.
The ardent yearning of our
service personnel and people for the President and the General became intenser
as the days went by and they fully manifested their passionate loyalty and pure
sense of moral obligation to translate into reality the great leaders’ plans
and wishes. Our Party’s politics of love for the people and younger generation
and its policy of attaching importance to science and education were embodied
in reality and thereby the people’s trust in the Party deepened and our
single-hearted unity hardened. Amid the drive for carrying on education in
revolutionary traditions through the study tour of the revolutionary battle
sites in the Mt. Paektu area, the entire army and the whole society came to
pulsate with the spirit and mettle of Paektu and bubble with the conviction and
will to carry through the sacred revolutionary cause of Chuch’e.
Last year the fighting efficiency
of the People’s Army was increased remarkably and national defence capability
was built up.
As the army conducted political
and ideological work in a positive manner and stoked the flames of training
under combat conditions, all its officers and men and units of services and
arms became strong in ideas and faith and prepared as an invincible army
capable of discharging operational and combat missions proficiently in any
circumstances and conditions. Iron military discipline was established in the
entire army and unprecedented successes were made in the improvement of
soldiers’ living. The defence industry sector developed and completed various
means of military strike of our style to make a tangible contribution to the
qualitative growth of the revolutionary armed forces.
Last year we made great progress
in the building of a socialist economic giant and civilized nation by the joint
operation of the army and people.
Even in the difficult situation and
adverse conditions last year, an upswing was brought about in production in
different sectors including agriculture, fishery and chemical and coal-mining
industries, opening up bright prospects for the building of an economic giant
and improvement of the people’s living standards. The construction sector
kindled the fierce flames for creating the Korean speed to build many
monumental structures that serve as standards and models of Chuch’e-oriented
architecture including the Wisong Scientists Dwelling District, apartment
houses for lecturers of Kim Ch’aek University of Technology, Yo’np’ung
Scientists Holiday Camp and October 8 Factory, thereby actually demonstrating
the looks of the DPRK that is realizing its beautiful ideals. The service
personnel who engaged in the building of a thriving country achieved
breakthroughs in production, construction and modernization and created
excellent model units in the spirit of devotedly implementing the Party’s
policies and the spirit of match-for-a-hundred combatants.
