Present there were senior officials of the Party, the army and the state, chairpersons of the friendly parties and officials of the party, armed forces and power organs, public organizations, ministries and national institutions, servicepersons of the Korean People's Army, officials in the fields of science, education, culture and arts, public health and media, anti-Japanese revolutionary fighters, labor innovators and working people in Pyongyang, the chief of the Pyongyang Mission of the Anti-Imperialist National Democratic Front and overseas Koreans.

Kim Yong Nam, member of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the WPK and president of the Presidium of the Supreme People's Assembly, in a report delivered at the meeting said that Kim Jong Suk, born into an extremely poor peasant family in Hoeryong, North Hamgyong Province on Dec. 24, Juche 6 (1917), embarked on the road of struggle in her teens with rare anti-Japanese and patriotic intention and strong revolutionary consciousness.
The revolutionary career of Kim Jong Suk was a brilliant life of the revolutionary most loyal to President Kim Il Sung as she single-mindedly and devotedly defended him and firmly upheld his idea and cause, a great life of the woman commander of Mt. Paektu as she performed distinguished exploits by taking the lead in carrying out the Songun revolutionary cause of Juche and a noble life of the most outstanding woman revolutionary produced by the Korean nation as she was possessed of lofty personality, the reporter said, and continued:
Kim Jong Suk was the supreme incarnation in defending the leader as she single-mindedly upheld Kim Il Sung with transparent revolutionary outlook on the leader and the most loyal lifeguard of the President.
Noting that she was the woman commander of Mt. Paektu as she performed undying feats totally dedicating her life to the accomplishment of the Songun revolutionary cause of Juche, he stressed that brilliantly recorded in history are the heroic feats she performed in many battles including Laoling, Xinancha and Hongtoushan battles where she courageously wiped out Japanese imperialist aggressors.
She was a model of genuine revolutionary fighters as she glorified her life with her staunch and noble revolutionary traits and popular character, the reporter said, and went on to say:
It was against the background of the anti-Japanese revolution and the stirring reality of building a new country that she worked heart and soul to bring up leader Kim Jong Il to be successor to the revolution possessed of intense loyalty to the President's idea and cause, ardent patriotism and strong faith in the army and bold pluck as befitting the general of Mt. Paektu.
The reporter called on all the party members, servicepersons and other people to cherish deep in their mind the great feats performed by Kim Jong Suk in laying an eternal foundation for the revolutionary cause of Juche, consolidate the single-minded unity of the revolutionary ranks around Kim Jong Il and become ardent fighters and genuine Songun revolutionary comrades who would share their idea, intention and destiny with their leader.

Pyongyang, December 24 (KCNA) -- The revolutionary drama "Woman Comrade of Mt. Paektu" was staged by artistes of the State Theatrical Company at the State Theatrical Theater Monday on the occasion of the 90th birth anniversary of anti-Japanese war hero Kim Jong Suk.

Paternal Love of Supreme Commander for Soldiers
Pyongyang, December 24 (KCNA) -- Today, the soldiers of the Korean People's Army revere and follow Kim Jong Il rather as their father than as the Supreme Commander.
It is his view on comradeship that the soldiers are his precious revolutionary comrades who share the same idea and aim in the Songun revolution.
And no wonder he has visited so many heights and posts including Mt. Osong with over 150 turns on the road, and Panmunjom on the forefront, saying he should go wherever soldiers are. He crossed the long and stiff Chol Pass more than ten times and sailed to Cho Islet through roaring waves.
When he finds himself among soldiers, he takes a scrupulous care of their life from cultural and emotional activities to meals, showing them warmer affection than their own parents would.
He took measures to let the soldiers have many photos taken so that they would be able to keep them long as mementos of their military service. When he visited a women's company in a deep valley, he took care that all conditions were taken so they could watch clear and clean TV scenes.
After listening to ordinary soldiers singing, he saw to it that their talent was brought into bloom. And, when he saw twelve pieces of pencil sketch "Soldier's Life" drawn by a private, he set off a new wave of cultural and emotional activities, "a sketch storm," all over the country.
Concerned even over the cold wind filtering through needle holes of soldiers' winter clothes, he took care that they were replaced with better ones. He acquaints himself with the room temperature and water quality while making a round of bedrooms, wash-cum-bath houses, kitchens, non-staple food stores and other supply facilities and teaches them food processing methods, too.
Immeasurable is the warmth of his parental love for the soldiers.
So the hearts of the KPA soldiers are aflame with the fervor to perform brilliant feats in the days of their military service under Kim Jong Il's Songun leadership on the 16th anniversary of the day when he was acclaimed as the supreme commander of the KPA (Dec. 24, 1991).
16th Anniversary of Kim Jong Il's Assumption of KPA Supreme Commandership Marked
Pyongyang, December 24 (KCNA) -- Papers here Monday editorially observe the 16th anniversary of Kim Jong Il's assumption of supreme commandership of the Korean People's Army.
Rodong Sinmun says: The Korean revolution has won victory after victory despite unprecedented ordeals and difficulties in history and the DPRK is now displaying its might as an invincible politico-ideological and military power because it has held the great brilliant commanders of Songun as supreme commander of the revolutionary armed forces generation after generation.
Kim Jong Il is a great statesman and a peerlessly brilliant commander of Songun as he has led the revolutionary cause of Juche to victory while giving priority to armed forces, the daily notes, and goes on:
It is Kim Jong Il who enunciated the idea and theory on building the revolutionary army into the army of the leader and the party for the first time in history and successfully materialized them and created the great Songun political mode, the basic socialist political mode in our era, ushering in a new brilliant era of building the army and a socialist power.
It is thanks to the energetic leadership of Kim Jong Il who has trained the People's Army as the army of the party and the leader steadfastly carrying forward the tradition of Mt. Paektu that the revolutionary armed forces of the DPRK have firmly defended the idea and exploits of President Kim Il Sung with arms and displayed their might as a powerful main force of the Songun revolution.
The Songun idea, the Juche idea of the President, is shedding its eternal rays as the only guiding idea in the DPRK today and all work related to the revolution and construction is being conducted the way the President did under any circumstances.
The DPRK has steadily pushed forward the drive to implement the behest of the President, always holding him in high esteem as he explored the road of the revolution. This is a stirring reality which can be seen in the DPRK which holds Kim Jong Il as supreme commander of the revolutionary armed forces.
It is the immortal historic exploits performed by him that he has remarkably augmented the political and military might of the country, demonstrating its dignity and honor as a sovereign country.
Minju Joson calls upon all the people to make more vigorous endeavors to victoriously advance the building of a great prosperous powerful socialist nation and finally accomplish the revolutionary cause of Juche under the leadership of Kim Jong Il.

Letter to Kim Jong Il from Chongryon
Pyongyang, December 24 (KCNA) -- General Secretary Kim Jong Il received a letter from the Central Standing Committee of the General Association of Korean Residents in Japan (Chongryon) on Monday on the occasion of the 90th birth anniversary of anti-Japanese war hero Kim Jong Suk.
The letter noted that the whole life of Kim Jong Suk was a heroic life of the woman commander of Mt. Paektu who performed enormous feats in the protracted bloody journey for the liberation of the country. It was also a sacred life of the noblest loyal subject, the prominent woman revolutionary and the great mother as she established the great tradition of devotedly defending the leader and provided the rosy future of Juche Korea, the letter added.
The letter said that her noble outlook on the leader has been successfully inherited and developed by Kim Jong Il and her transparent revolutionary spirit is invariably being carried forward along the road of victory in the Songun revolution led by him.
Kim Jong Suk will always live in the hearts of the people in the homeland and Korean residents in Japan as the woman commander of Mt. Paektu and the great mother of Korea as she provided the great tradition of devotedly defending the leader, which will shine as a treasure of eternal value for the Korean revolution, and the foundations for carrying forward the Juche cause generation after generation, it stressed.
The letter expressed the will of Chongryon and Koreans in Japan to significantly decorate the birthday of the DPRK, the homeland of Juche, as their great festival by achieving proud successes in the implementation of the decision of the 21st Chongryon Congress in the historic new year which falls on its 60th anniversary.
Japan's Missile Test under Fire in S. Korea
Pyongyang, December 24 (KCNA) -- The press headquarters of the South Side Committee for Implementing the June 15 Joint Declaration reportedly made public a statement on Dec. 18 denouncing the missile test conducted by the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force.
Referring to the fact that some time ago, a MSDF destroyer shot down a ballistic missile with SM-3 in a test conducted off Hawaii backed by the U.S. Naval Force, the statement said: The missile test indicates that Japan and the U.S. have entered a full-scale stage of jointly building up the missile shield. So, it is an action of wrecking peace as it goes against the trend of the times toward the establishment of a peace-keeping mechanism on the Korean Peninsula.
Japan has long poured a huge amount of funds in the program to build up missile shield while scheming to deploy Aegis ships loaded with SM-3s in around the East Sea of Korea and equip its Self-Defense Forces with Patriot missiles, in the future, the statement pointed out, adding:
Such moves of Japan have increased the possibility that arms race will be sped up in Northeast Asia.
DPRK's Important Days Marked
Pyongyang, December 24 (KCNA) -- Reading sessions on the Vol. 2 of the "Biography of Comrade Kim Jong Il" took place at the Secretariat of the Pan-African Movement and in Uganda, a round table talk in Uganda, a lecture and a photo exhibition in Guinea and a film show in Thailand from December 14 to 19 to commemorate the 16th anniversary of Kim Jong Il's assumption of office as supreme commander of the Korean People's Army and the 90th birth anniversary of anti-Japanese war hero Kim Jong Suk.
On display at the venues of the functions were photos showing the exploits performed by Kim Jong Il in leading the Songun revolution and photos introducing the invincible might of the heroic KPA.
Speeches were made there.
The director for Political Affairs and International Relations of the Pan-African Movement said that the army and the people of the DPRK are dynamically advancing along the road of independence without vacillation in the face of the threat and blackmail by any foreign forces as they hold Kim Jong Il, possessed of the matchless grit and gifted wisdom, at the head of the party, the army and the state.
The acting executive secretary of the Ugandan National Women's Council said that the high national pride and dignity of the Korean people are associated with the immortal exploits of Kim Jong Suk and her great feats for history and humankind will be handed down through generations.
The director general of the Kim Il Sung Institute of Agricultural Science in Guinea said that the greatest exploit of Kim Jong Suk was that she brought up the shining future of Korea in the flames of the anti-Japanese war.
The DPRK films were screened at the film show.
Dismantlement of Concrete Wall Demanded by Syrian
Pyongyang, December 24 (KCNA) -- Saber Ballul, head of a department of the Political Faculty of University of Damascus in Syria, made public a statement titled "Barrier separating Korean nation should be pulled down" on December 19.
Noting that the south Korean authorities built the concrete wall, dividing one nation and one territory into two, the statement said:
This is an unethical crime against the Korean nation and it is quite contrary to the international laws and humanitarianism.
The south Korean authorities have refused to pull down the barrier of division as they are fearful of the desire for national reunification of all the Korean people in the north and the south and overseas, it pointed out, and said:
Today when the Cold War came to an end, there is no justification for the concrete wall, a symbol of national division, to be left intact in the Korean Peninsula. The south Korean authorities should not turn aside from the trend of the times and the desire of the nation but make a bold decision to pull down the wall.

Corea, que hace un siglo se vio obligada a sufrir la verguenza de la nacion arruinada por falta de poderoso ejercito nacional, llego hoy a su fisonomia de potencia militar inquebrantable a la que no pueden atreverse a atacar los cualesquier potentes enemigos imperialistas.

De esta manera, abrio una brillante perspectiva ante el camino de la nacion coreana enrumbada a la patria prospera reunificada, elevo incomparablemente la dignidad y la posicion de Corea del Songun en la escena mundial y fortalecio extraordinariamente la solidaridad internacional con la revolucion coreana.
Con la gran idea y la dinamica orientacion del Songun el Dirigente formo al EPC como abanderado y grueso numero uno de la revolucion jucheana y logro victorias milagrosas en la batalla de defensa al socialismo y la construccion de una gran potencia prospera y asentar una solida base para la prosperidad eterna de Corea de Kim Il Sung. Estas hazanas del Comandante Supremo luciran eternamente en la historia de construccion militar del Partido del Trabajo de Corea y los anales de la Republica Popular Democratica de Corea.
Debemos desplegar una energica lucha de todo el pueblo por abrir a toda costa la gran puerta de gran potencia prospera en 2012 en que se cumplira el centenario del nacimiento del Presidente Kim Il Sung, y de esta manera tenemos que revitalizar todas las ramas de la economia nacional, en particular los dominios que juegan el papel de vanguardia en la economia y la industria basica y avivar las llamas de la revolucion en la agricultura y la industrial ligera para asi producir un viraje decisivo en la mejora de la vida del pueblo.
