In the autographs he said he was pleased to hear that Manpho citizens were very glad to move to new houses, a result of leader Kim Jong Il's loving care.

He said the officials of the city should always look after people's life and settle their problems in time and put the interests of people above all so that the popular policies of the Workers' Party of Korea can be realized along with the august name of Kim Jong Il.

He said he could not accept rice Manpho citizens were willing to send to the builders of the statue of Kim Jong Il. He said he would convey the people's fidelity to leader Kim Jong Il, reminding him of the blood ties remaining resilient between the leader and the people.

He let the rice be sent to people and children of the city.

Heartened by the letter, he renewed the will to carry on the revolution with redoubled efforts, he said.

245 families in Manpho City moved to new modern houses on the shore of the River Amnok on the birth anniversary of Kim Jong Il. On February 12 they forwarded a letter to Kim Jong Un pledging to devote themselves to accomplishing the cause of Juche revolution and Songun under his leadership.
