Pyongyang, June 2 (KCNA) — The Central Cadres Training School of the
Workers' Party of Korea, a prestigious political school of the WPK and the
highest seat of training cadres of the Party, is proudly marking its 80th
founding anniversary in its glorious history.
The Central Cadres Training School has successfully carried out its strategic
and historic duty, entrusted by the times and the revolution, in the van of
accomplishing the sacred cause of eternally carrying forward the lifeline of the
Kimilsungist-Kimjongilist Party and its ever-victorious leadership and firmly
guaranteeing the bright prospect of the Juche cause. Such contribution of the
school serves as a solid cornerstone supporting the immortal dignity and
honor of the WPK which is writing the longest history as a socialist ruling
party.
The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un, General Secretary of the Workers'
Party of Korea and President of the State Affairs of the Democratic People's
Republic of Korea, paid a congratulatory visit to the Central Cadres Training
School of the WPK marking its 80th founding anniversary on June 1.
The revolutionary university, which stands imposingly in the historic
Kumsusan area as a symbol of the absolute prestige of the WPK and the
invincibility of our cause, was filled with great excitement and joy of all its
teaching staff and students who had the greatest honor and happiness of
having Comrade Kim Jong Un on its campus on the significant 80th
founding anniversary.
When Comrade Kim Jong Un arrived, all the participants broke into
thunderous cheers of "Hurrah!".
They paid the highest tribute and gratitude to Comrade Kim Jong Un, the
most faithful successor to the sacred cause of Kimilsungism-Kimjongilism, the
peerlessly great political master and the great teacher, who visited the school
with ardent love, trust and warm blessing.

Comrade Kim Jong Un was courteously greeted by Ri Yong Sik,
headmaster of the Central Cadres Training School of the WPK, and Paek
Hyong Chol, secretary of its primary committee of the WPK.
He was presented with bouquets of fragrant flowers by the school's
educational workers.
He warmly congratulated all the teaching staff and students of the school on
its significant 80th founding anniversary as they are performing brilliant feats
with honor by making tangible contribution to organizational and ideological
strengthening of the Party and its leadership activities through educational
practice and scientific activities and with good scholastic attainments at a time
when the new era of Party building and the great period of national
rejuvenation are being ushered in.
Present at the celebrations were secretaries and other officials of the Central
Committee of the WPK, the teaching staff and students of the Central Cadres
Training School of the WPK and educational workers and students of the
provincial Party schools across the country.
Present there on invitation were the veteran educators who made
distinguished contributions to training Party cadres.
The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un made a significant speech on the
occasion of the 80th founding anniversary of the Central Cadres Training
School of the WPK.
He appreciated the special position and dignity and the high honor of the
Central Cadres Training School, which has vigorously developed into a
reliable cadre-training base of the WPK both in name and in reality for the
past 80 years since it was founded with 80 students holding in high esteem
the great leader Comrade Kim Il Sung as its first headmaster on June 1,
1946, and is now purely glorifying its sacred original name as a political and
educational institution faithfully serving the cause of Juche-oriented Party
building and as a strategic fortress guaranteeing the existence and
development of the Party.
The original idea of founding the school that it is hard to expect the building of
a prosperous state apart from the core and leading role of the Party cadres
and the training of Party cadres should be put above all other affairs remains
an absolute truth even now after 80 years, he said, referring to the strategic

intention of the WPK attaching greater importance to the training of Party
cadres and its inevitability at a time when the socialist construction is in the
era of transformation which no one has ever experienced and the struggle for
realizing the people's ideal is being intensified as never before.
He said that if the Party is to become strong and the country to develop, the
pedigree establishment for training hard-core cadres of the Party should be
firm and the top-ranking talents of our country should be trained. And he set
forth in detail the important principles and educational and practical directions
to be adhered to by the Party political school in remaining faithful to its
character, nature and mission and training the reserves of the Party into core
elements possessed of the Juche outlook on the revolution, life and morality
despite the passage of time and the steady replacement of generations.
He wished the Central Cadres Training School of the WPK only glory in the
future, ardently calling for making the glorious moment of today, which marks
another significant starting point in the development of the WPK and the
revolution, lead onto the brighter future and more courageously opening up
the great course of party building in the new era.
All the participants, receiving with boundless excitement the profound
guidelines guaranteeing the bright future of strengthening the whole Party in
the new era, broke into enthusiastic cheers amid a thunderous clapping of
hands, expressing their determination to remain unfailingly faithful to the
cause of Juche-oriented party building as the true personifiers of the red-flag
spirit firmly armed with the revolutionary idea of the Party Central Committee
and the standard-bearers of the revolution steadfastly carrying forward the
glory of the Party and guaranteeing its future.
Comrade Kim Jong Un went round the room dedicated to the history of the
school.
Our cause of Party building has never experienced a moment of stagnation or
frustration even in the years of the arduous revolution, thanks to the Party
cadres training bases which have invariably served as a nutrition for the
Juche-oriented cause of Party building from the very day of the Party
founding, he said, adding that it is the great pride and strength of the WPK to
have such a prestigious educational base and strong theoretical base as the
Central Cadres Training School of the WPK which is reliably supporting the
struggle of the socialist ruling Party while maintaining the high sense of

responsibility for the revolutionary cause, sincere research attitude and
substantial teaching strategy.
He stressed that even though the Party's revolutionary idea is great and its
exploits enormous, it is impossible to expect the Party's long-term
development and steady succession to the revolutionary cause if the Party
fails to successfully train its successors, and that the Central Cadres Training
School should ceaselessly enhance the leadership and fighting efficiency for
the permanent existence and continued victorious development of the Party
and consolidate its eternal prosperity in conformity with the important mission
given by the times and the revolution.
It is the guarantee for invincibility of the revolutionary Party and the law of its
rule to highly value its sacred first page and steadfastly carry it forward as the
history becomes longer and exploits are accumulated, he said, stressing that
the school should steadily glorify its noble position and duty as the main base
and think-tank of the Party's ideo-theoretical building in the work of
intensifying the education and struggle to maintain and give full play to the
Party's original ideals and determination and qualitatively training the hard-
core elements possessed of the revolutionary climate inherent in the Party as
their mental qualities.
The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un had a photo taken with the teaching
staff of the Central Cadres Training School, who are devoting their high
qualifications as educators, Party conscience and revolutionary enthusiasm to
the sacred school platform related to the eternal future of the Party, on the
occasion of the significant founding anniversary of the school.
The role of the Central Cadres Training School of the WPK just means the
strengthening and development of the WPK and the eternal future of the Party
building depends on every step of this political school, he said, expressing
expectation and belief that the school will further strive to strengthen the Party
and brilliantly accomplish its sacred action programs, always sharing the
intention, will and practice with the Party Central Committee.
Then, he also had a photo taken with the educational workers of the provincial
Party schools who were invited to the celebrations of the 80th founding
anniversary of the Central Cadres Training School, which will be eternally
recorded in the history of Party building.

All the participants hardened their will to more creditably and steadfastly carry
out the duty of the glorious political school with their great efforts and
successes in the educational work, bearing deeper in mind the honor of being
committed revolutionaries who are training the reserves of the Party.
The women's soccer teams, who won gold medals in the international games
for the honor of the motherland, had a demonstration match to commemorate
the 80th founding anniversary of the school.
The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un watched the match together with the
participants in the celebrations.
Prior to the match, he met and warmly congratulated the players and coaches
of the National Soccer Team, the winner of the 2026 AFC U-17 Women's
Asian Cup, and the Naegohyang Team who won the trophy in the 2025-2026
AFC Women's Champions League.
He warmly took the trustworthy women players, proud daughters of the
motherland, to his arms and had a photo session with them, hoping that they
will support the country by winning more gold medals, more brilliant trophies
associated with their patriotism.
The conspicuous match started amid high spirit and excitement of the women
players honored with great love and trust of the fatherly Marshal.
The match, in which the players displayed high competitive spirit, impressively
decorated the end of the celebrations.
At the end of the match, the participants raised roaring cheers of "Hurrah!" as
an eruption of their joy and excitement of spending together with the
benevolent father dream-like pleasant and happy time that they would
recollect in their lifetime.
Comrade Kim Jong Un warmly waved back to the enthusiastically cheering
participants, expressing his hope that the pedigree establishments for training
the backbone of the WPK, which upheld its glorious history as a ruling party,
would achieve more remarkable successes in education and gain higher
academic authority.
The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un's guidance to the supreme political
school of the DPRK will be registered in the history of Party building in the
new era as a sacred footprints he made to ensure forever the eternal

continuity and invincibility of the Juche revolution and usher in the more bright
and hopeful era of prosperity before the Party and the country by giving
definite precedence to the work for the future of the Party over all other affairs.
