Minju Joson

It is the principal newspaper of the Cabinet of North Korea and the Standing Committee of the Supreme People's Assembly.

Since 1967 – the year of the Kapsan faction incident – the content of Minju Joson has been identical in tone to that of Rodong Sinmun.

[3] Unlike Rodong Sinmun, it handles more administrative matters, such as decisions and orders of the Cabinet, laws, regulations and policy issues.

[7] While annual January 1 editorials are a tradition among the papers, that year's brought attention from Western media outlets, by calling for a "nationwide campaign for driving out the U.S.

The 2009 editorial received similar attention, as criticism of United States policy was absent, and the admission of severe economic problems in the country.

[9][10] This was echoed again in its 2010 editorial, which called for an end to hostilities with the United States and a nuclear free Korean Peninsula.

[11] The 2011 joint editorial edition, aside from its calls for a denuclearized Korea and for a slowdown of tensions between the two Koreas, has for the first time, mentioned the rising light industries of the DPRK, given as a reason for an upcoming upsurge in the national economy in the new year and for the achievement of the Kangsong Taeguk national mission.
