WPK Praised as Model of All Progressive Parties
Pyongyang, October 18 (KCNA) -- Events were held in different countries on the occasion of the 15th anniversary of leader Kim Jong Il's election as general secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and its 67th birthday.

Meetings were held by the Hungarian Communist Workers' Party, the Songun Youth Union for the Study of the Juche Idea and the Prednestrovie Anti-imperialist Songun Revolutionary Society for the Study of the Juche Idea of Moldova and round-table talks by the Nigeria-Korea Friendship Association from Oct. 8 to 11.

Gyula Thurmer, chairman of the Hungarian Communist Workers' Party, praised Kim Jong Il for developing the WPK founded by President Kim Il Sung into a Juche-type revolutionary party.

Aleksei Bolrynets, chairman of the Moldovan society, referred to the ever-victorious history covered by the WPK under the leadership of Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il.

Ibrahim Mantu, member of the Credit Committee of the People's Democratic Party of Nigeria and chairman of the Nigeria-Korea Friendship Association, said the WPK is a model of all the world progressive parties.

The WPK's holding of Kim Jong Il in high esteem as its eternal general secretary is the event unprecedented in the party history of any other countries of the world as it is the reflection of the will of WPK to glorify Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il's idea of party building and feats forever and invariably embody them, he said.
