people will be guided by FRELIMO, an instrument for the organisation and the mobilisation of the Mozambican People in the struggle for national liberation, which shall continue to guide the People in the new phase of the struggle for the building of the people's democratic State, for rebuilding the nation, for liquidating the exploitation of man by man. At all levels the primacy of Party decisions and structures over those of the Government will be affirmed. The Mozambique People's Liberation Forces under the leadership of FRELIMO, educated and forged in the liberation and class struggle, is part of our People's vanguard, their armed wing, a force for the mobilisation of the broad masses, an instrument for national reconstruction, and fundamentally a conscious revolutionary force for the defence of the interests of the working masses. In the process of the material building of the new society, with agriculture as its base and industry as the propelling factor, relying upon its own forces and supported by its natural allies, the People's Republic of Mozambique will build a prosperous and independent advanced economy, ensuring the control over its natural resources for the benefit of the masses, progressively applying the just principle of to each according to his work and from everyone according to his ability. The People's Republic of Mozambique will have political and administrative structures designed to apply the principle of People's Democratic Power, in which the democratically appointed representatives of the working masses will exercise power at all levels. EDUCATION: The objective of the People's Republic of Mozambique is the cultural wellbeing of all citizens, to achieve which it will promote the spread of education at all levels through democratisation guided by the State, the wiping out of elitism and discrimination in education based on wealth, and the formation of a new popular and revolutionary mentality in the new generation. YOUTH: The youth, the lifeblood of the nation, will be protected and priority will be given to their education, which will be always closely linked with the life and the interests of the masses. The State will promote knowledge and revitalisation of Mozambican culture and will spread it nationally and internationally, as a part of the consolidation of national unity and as an essential part of the Mozambican personality. HEALTH: The wiping out of disease, one of the features of colonialism and underdevelopment, will be a major concern. The People's Republic of Mozambique will extend the network of health services throughout the country, particularly into the rural areas, with the aim of benefitting the working masses. The People's Republic of Mozambique will protect the family, encouraging its development through the protection of mothers and children. The People's Republic of Mozambique, by following FRELIMO's political line, will be engaged in the struggle for the emancipation of woman, for her total liberation from the diverse forms of traditional and capitalist oppression, so that she may recover her role as a citizen enjoying full rights in our society, and so giving all her political, civic and social contribution. The People's Republic of Mozambique regards special protection of war widows and orphans, as well as people crippled by war, as an absolute duty of all Mozambicans. They are a symbol of the sacrifices offered by millions of Mozambicans during the period of colonial domination and of the struggle for national liberation. The People's Republic of Mozambique will be a secular State in which there will be total separation between the State and any church or religion. The State will guarantee full freedom of conscience and the right of every citizen to practise a religion or not. Born of the liberation struggle for national independence, the People's Republic of Mozambique is in fundamental solidarity with national liberation movements, and militant internationalism is a basic constant of its national and international policies. The People's Republic of Mozambique regards itself as an integral part of mankind's oppressed peoples and classes fighting to change the world and to establish a new and just social order. The People's Republic of Mozambique has as its natural allies the socialist countries, which constitute a liberated area of mankind, the young States, in particular African countries committed with the national liberation movement in one of the main fronts of anti-imperialist struggle, the democratic and progressive forces, the working masses of all mankind. The People's Republic of Mozambique, born of a long, hard and difficult struggle, learned and appreciates the value of peace. It will therefore undertake with no hesitations a policy aimed at establishing a genuine peace based on justice, and here and now declares itself to be in favour of a general and complete world disarmament. Because of the particular responsibility due to its geographic position, the People's Republic of Mozambique affirms its concern that the Indian Ocean should be made into a zone of peace. Mozambicans, women and men. This is the first State in which power belongs to us, this is our own country born out of the plunder, ruins, sacrifices, and bloodshed. We salute our flag, symbol of our victory, and we salute its honourable insig- nias of study, work, and struggle. United under the leadership of FRELIMO from the Rovuma to the Maputo, dedicated to the liberating work that is the basis for all things, with the banner of vigilance raised high, let us build, consolidate and develop our State, and our Power, and our Victory. LONCx LIVE FRELIMO! LONG LIVE THE PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF MOZAMBIQUE! THE STRUGGLE CONTINUES! 16
