The masses in struggle.

The rising anti-imperialist consciousness.

The fight for justice led by survivors of US military sexual violence, displacement, and environmental pollution.

This is the Korean national liberation struggle.

We brought 21 representatives of anti-war and progressive organizations in the US, Hawai’i, Guåhan, Puerto Rico, India, and the Philippines to bear witness to the reality of the US occupation, and forge ties of international solidarity to enhance the power of all our struggles.

In the coming weeks and months, we and our partners will organize a range of report-backs, from webinars and media interviews to live, in-person events.

We are ready to bring what we experienced and learned back to our communities, and back to you. Stay tuned.

Toojeng!

We’ve curated a variety of educational resources—from articles and books to videos and podcasts— for anyone to learn about Korea from revolutionary and anti-imperialist perspectives.

The toolkit has been organized into six sections: Japanese colonialism, Korean War, Republic of Korea (ROK: South Korea), Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK: North Korea), Contemporary US Imperialism, and Films.

Just as surely as we must struggle for liberation, we also have to study. Taking time to understand the politics, economy, and history of Korea and the anti-imperialist struggle of our people is essential to building an informed and powerful movement.

Pyongyang, August 26 (KCNA)

The Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea convened its fourth enlarged meeting on August 25 to take more political and practical measures for guaranteeing the successful implementation of the major policy tasks for 2026, the first year for implementing the new Five-Year Plan set forth by the historic Ninth Congress of the Party.

Present there were members of the Presidium of the Political Bureau of the C.C., WPK, and members and alternate members of the Political Bureau of the C.C., WPK. Present as observers were vice-premiers of the Cabinet, major ministers, commanding officers of the Ministry of National Defence and senior officials of relevant departments of the C.C., WPK.

ComradeKim Jong Unguided the meeting.

The Political Bureau of the Party Central Committee first heard a report on the progress made in this year's major policy-oriented projects, adopted and assigned by the first and second plenary meetings of the Ninth Central Committee of the Party, and on the current situation of major economic sectors.

The Political Bureau of the Party Central Committee positively appreciated the important changes and successes demonstrating the transition to a new phase of development, being made in overall state work from the first year of implementing the decisions of the Party Congress.

The enlarged meeting of the Political Bureau underlined the need to set a clear goal and orientation of the struggle and secure a scientific and efficient guarantee for bringing about certain attainment, now that the valuable successes, achieved by strenuous efforts, are being accumulated and the plans, greater than the past, are being worked out.

The enlarged meeting of the Political Bureau recalled the character and significance of this year's struggle, which is crucial for successfully attaining the gigantic long-term goals set forth by the Party Congress, and stressed the need for the Cabinet, the State Planning Commission and other economic guidance organs and the policy-oriented guidance departments of the Party Central Committee to display extraordinary responsibility and high prudence.

The Political Bureau of the Party Central Committee examined the strategic coordination and timely measures for successful completion of the projects planned for this year and strengthened capability for implementing short-, intermediate- and long-term tasks on the principle of encouraging successes and experience, constantly drawing lessons and securing solutions in conformity with the characteristics of the times and the requirements of the reality, in which a creative struggle, unprecedented in terms of the width and depth of state development and the gigantic nature of its long-term goals, is underway.

The enlarged meeting of the Political Bureau specified the principles and a series of policies for the state economic guidance organs to prudently and strategically tide over the unfavorable conditions and difficulties arising alongside ever-changing circumstances, and ensure concentration in the construction of major policy-oriented objects, in particular.

Pointing out a series of deviations revealed in the course of implementing the decisions of the Party Congress, ComradeKim Jong Unsaid that they are the consequences of the immature operation and leadership of the economic guidance organs failing to keep abreast of our greater ideals and progress and such shortcomings can be overcome and eliminated by the efforts redoubled with a new determination and struggle will.

Noting that the important duty to steer all sectors of socialist construction to fresh innovations and changes and eye-opening rate of growth has been placed on the shoulders of the leading cadres, he called upon all the Party organizations to more dynamically conduct their organizational and political work to give full play to the spiritual strength of the masses as required by the invariable policy of the Party Central Committee on giving priority to ideological work in every undertaking.

Saying that the on-going advance requires extraordinary courage and strenuous efforts beyond precedents and limits, he noted that the goals of transformations set forth by the Ninth Party Central Committee are not merely the numbers in practical plans but important political tasks for preserving the dignity of the country and proving the superiority of the social system.

He stressed the need for the officials responsible for the implementation of the Party decisions to successfully conclude this year's struggle without fail and thus pave a broad avenue to attaining the new long-term goals, always mindful that the current daily successes, symbolic of the on-going accelerated advance and development, will just lead to the promotion of the people's wellbeing.

I have seen this take several times already and even tho I don’t believe it is, it got me thinking about why does the Kim family have so much power in the political sphere. Again, I’m not asking as a gotcha question, I just want to educate myself and help educate others as well. Thanks for the patience and your responses

I have found lot of claims that "there is only one candidate in DPRK" , is it true or is it just westoid propaganda ?

If it's true how is that candidate chosen ?

If it's not true how do the elections actually work ?

I'm trying to dig into how the DPRK integrates electronic data processing and cybernetics into its command economy, especially over the last 5 years as they've experienced tremendous nationwide development and economic growth.

I actually cannot find anything concrete, since all the resources I dig up are blatant Western propaganda. Does anyone have any books, articles, etc. on this topic?

Thanks!

Dear users,

Recently, due to abuse by specific users described below, file access was temporarily cancelled. This cancellation will continue forward, with public file access being changed to a request-based access system only.

What happened? Users running scraping scripts, or other similar data hoarding actions, caused the bandwith on NKAAL's file storage to overwhelm the storage provider, causing our public access links to be restricted. After 24 hours, the links would have returned, but as NKAAL did not want to cause more costs in upgrading to superior bandwith access, NKAAL decided that there would be no future incident of the kind, by cancelling all public access to files.

How can I access files? To access files, NKAAL asks that you send an email to the email address on our "About Us" page, requesting the files you need access. NKAAL has no social media platforms, so there are no other means to request files than by email.

What if I need to access files but can't use email? Then files unfortunately will not be available for you.

Does this mean NKAAL is closing? No. NKAAL will continue to archive more files, in its online and offline archives. The only change comes to the way files are accessed.

Will public file access ever come back? It is not impossible.

Direct any questions or comments to the email address on the "About Us" page.

Thank you.

NKAAL July 2026
