President
Kim Il Sung
founded the DPRK on
September 9, Juche 37(1948).
Since
then the Korean people have been freely participating in all fields
of state administration and the exercise of sovereignty with a pride
of being citizens of the Republic.
Kim Il Sung
who bestowed the genuine honor of citizen of the Republic on the
Korean people had a higher degree of consciousness of citizenship
than anybody else.
The
following happened on the morning of the day of elections of deputies
to the 3rd Supreme People’s Assembly of the DPRK.
Leaving
home to go to a polling station,
Kim Il Sung
suddenly stopped to
ascertain whether he was carrying his citizenship card with him.
The
official accompanying him said it would not matter if he did not
carry his citizenship card with him.
He
had thought that there would be no problem even if the President did
not carry his citizenship card with him because he was the head of
state held in high esteem by all people of the country.
Reading
his mind, Kim
Il Sung said;
“Citizenship
card is a voucher of citizen of the Republic. So everybody should
carry his citizenship card with him when going to a polling station
to elect deputies. I am also a citizen of the Republic as all of you
are.”
At
this official could not repress excitement.
He
found the noble traits of the President who was regarding not only
pride, but duties and self-consciousness as the mission of citizen.
President
Kim Il Sung
was indeed a great citizen who kept the title of citizen of the
Republic in his heart.
