Agricultural workers in their speeches warmly welcomed with warm compatriotic feelings the reverend who visited Pyongyang at the risk of his life.

The south Korean puppet authorities threaten that they would take legal action against him, while taking issue with his righteous Pyongyang visit but it is the Lee Myung Bak group of traitors who deserves punishment, they noted, declaring that they would keep and glorify the June 15 joint declaration by joining efforts with the south Korean farmers.

The reverend said that the farmers in the south and the north should frustrate the interference of foreign forces with united efforts and sow seeds of reunification and peace on the territory of Korea and take good care of them.

At his earlier meeting with the workers of the Pyongyang 326 Electric Wire Factory, Rev. Han Sang Ryol referred to the fact that the workers in the south and the north have waged the patriotic movement for reunification in unity after the publication of the historic June 15 joint declaration, stressing the need for them to take the lead in preserving the June 15 joint declaration and create a new history of reunification.

Working people of the factory expressed the firm will to wage unflinching struggle for independent reunification, peace and prosperity, firmly joining hands with the workers in south Korea under the banner of "By our nation itself".

The reverend also met with former unconverted long-term prisoners who are pro-reunification patriotic fighters.
