The brutal suppression of the south Korean Federation of University Student Councils (Hanchongryon) was denounced at a press conference October 7 in Korea. Chief of the Pyongyang mission of the National Democratic Front of south Korea (NDFSK), Ri Jong Sang, told reporters that the central committee of NDFSK met with all its affiliated organizations on October 3, and made detailed plans for the immediate struggle under the very repressive situation prevailing in south Korea. The NDFSK called on all Koreans worldwide, and all friends of Korea, to step up the struggle against the fascist Kim Young-sam clique. One of the immediate tasks of the anti-Kim Young-sam movement is to mount a courageous struggle to frustrate the south Korean government's plans to strengthen the anti-democratic National Security Law (NSL). Ri Jong Sang said that one of the immediate tasks is to secure the abolition of the hated NSL. Also on the agenda is full public disclosure of the "presidential election funds," a probe into the truth behind the Kwangju massacre and stern punishment of the principal culprits, as well as doing everything possible to bring about the overthrow of the traitorous Kim Young-sam puppet regime before the 1997 presidential election. This will assist to open the road to independence, democracy and reunification. Shawgi Tell University at Buffalo Graduate School of Education [EMAIL PROTECTED]
