North Korean leader Kim Jong Un acknowledged that the Hermit Kingdom is facing its “worst-ever situation” — as he called thousands of “grassroots” ruling party members to be more proactive in carrying out the country’s new five-year economic plan, according to reports.

“Improving the people’s living standards … even in the worst-ever situation in which we have to overcome unprecedentedly numerous challenges depends on the role played by the cells, the grassroots organizations of the party,” Kim told the Workers’ Party members Tuesday in Pyongyang.

Experts say Kim is facing perhaps his toughest moment as he approaches a decade in power, amid the rogue regime’s COVID-19 lockdown unleashing further shock on an economy wracked by decades of mismanagement and crippling US-led sanctions over his nuclear weapons program.

The despot urged members to carry out the decisions made at a party congress in January, when he vowed to bolster his nuclear deterrent amid US pressure and announced the five-year national development plan.

The congress came months after Kim acknowledged that his plans to improve the economy weren’t succeeding.

During Tuesday’s speech, Kim also assailed the party’s grassroots units for unspecified “shortcomings,” saying they should be immediately corrected to ensure the “healthy and sustainable” development of the party.

Kim addressed a conference of cell secretaries — people responsible for groups of up to 30 party members — held as North Korea was in “high spirits” at the prospect of implementing decisions adopted at the congress, according to the official Korean Central News Agency.

“Cell secretaries are hard-core members of our Party and standard bearers in implementing Party policy,” KCNA quoted Kim as saying in an opening speech.

“The Party Central Committee expects that you will work in a more proactive and responsible way to strengthen the Party cells,” he added, Reuters reported.

  1. The US under Joe Biden and the Democrat Party is being taken down rapidly . How do we get away from these terrible monsters ?! We can no longer vote them out , they plan to be coming to our doors to force us to do what we do not want , and Congress has formed another national police to protect the mostly hated politicians and now the people are getting signatures to get them out of office as well as the school boards .

  2. Kim Jung Un…………….He and his Ilk are tempting to “Lift the Bucket, while Standing in It.”

    I believe that expression derives from Winston Churchill

  4. Is it just me or has anyone else noticed how Trump seems to get along and have a favorable relationships with other heads of states and foreign governments ? Other countries Like China and Russia know they have a better chance of taken over our nation if the Biden administration is in power.

  5. the swing factor for the NorthKorea hellhole is the willingness and abilityof CHINA to continue support for the KORCOMS.
    other wise they collapse ..Food supplies are exausted in 6 weeks …Buzzards are already circling over Pyongyang !

  7. Waste of time talking about North Korea while Joe is in office. Same goes with China which I predict will soon move to takeover Taiwan. Joe will do little as he has been compromised. No way I could get any type of security clearance if the same circumstances surrounded me.

  8. North Korea has two big problems at this time. The people there are running out of food. And with the sanctions it will not improve. The Virus is also there. But if Kim would do away with the nukes he could get help. But Kim refuses so it will be on his head. WHAT A ASSHOLE!!

  9. I actually think Kim respected Pres Trump and saw him almost as a father figure mentor, unlike his own family. That Trump put it right out there and stood by his word. Be it a good or bad outcome for NK, it was up front. I don’t think he’d experienced that before, certainly not from Obama and Biden, who told Trump there could be war any time with NK, the relations were so bad. His opinion of Biden is apparent, judging by his harsh commentary when Biden became President. I believe “idiot” was one of the kinder words he used, and likely saw the election was a fraud, as many leaders did, incl Xi and Putin and Queen Elizabeth, I believe. Kim, watching Trump lead, perhaps could see the possibilty of ruling a nation in a more humane, intelligent, and commonsense way than he’d been brought up to do. He lost weight, seems healthier, looking less stressed even with the Covid economic hardships and US sanctions his country is dealing with. After he met Trump, he started acting less paranoid of other leaders, starting to reach out to others a bit. It all can help, we hope. Good change is possible.

  10. As the sociologist Pitirim A. Sorokin showed in one of his many books, continuing hunger within the general population doesn’t usually bode well for a country’s political leadership.

  12. I sure hope we don’t end up being a third world country.AMERICANS really need to take our country away from the democrats.Our country is in trouble,real trouble.Wake up AMERICA and see and absorb what is going on.We will NOT become a marxist country,deal with it liberals.

  13. Eventually some generals might end Kim’s reign one way or another and then No and So Korea would then just become Korea and the Souths leadership would take over, a victory for all their people. In the meantime just let China use their money and resources to aid the North, rather than our funds.
