Pyongyang, May 24 (KCNA) -- Rodong Sinmun Thursday dedicates a by-lined article to the 17th anniversary of general secretary Kim Jong Il's letter "On Developing the Movement of Koreans in Japan onto a New Higher Stage". The letter comprehensively deals with the immortal exploits performed by President Kim Il Sung in the history of the movement of Koreans in Japan. It also expounds the basic orientation for the work of the General Association of Korean Residents in Japan (Chongryon) and key tasks to be always adhered to in the patriotic activity of Chongryon. For this reason, the letter serves as a powerful ideo-theoretical weapon for the patriotic cause of Chongryon both in name and reality. It helped open a turning phase of the movement of Koreans in Japan and firmly guaranteed its bright future, the article says, and goes on: The publication of the letter was a historic event as it encouraged officials in Chongryon and Koreans in Japan to take part in the struggle for developing the movement of Koreans in Japan and brought about a signal turn in the Juche-oriented movement of overseas Koreans. Officials in Chongryon and Koreans in Japan have spurred the movement of Koreans in Japan full of faith, true to the line and policy set forth by Kim Jong Il in the letter. The truth and vitality of the line and policy specified in the historic letter were fully demonstrated at home and abroad in those days. The patriotic line and nature of Chongryon were invariably defended and its core stronghold was consolidated than ever before despite the harsh environment and situation of uninterrupted rackets against the DPRK and Chongryon. The national rights of compatriots have been constantly boosted through different mass movements including the movement to invite Koreans to come to the fold of Chongryon. |
