The participation in the inaugural ceremony of the Cemetery of the Chinese People's Volunteers Martyrs helped him recall the CPV martyrs who performed feats in the Korean front, he said, and went on:

The mountains and fields of Korea are associated with blood and soul of the CPV martyrs.

The armies and peoples of the two countries fought a war in the same trench shoulder to should to puncture the arrogance of the U.S. imperialists who boasted of the "mightiness" in the world.

Their feats remain shining in history.

The traditional Sino-Korean friendship was sealed in blood.

During the anti-Japanese war President Kim Il Sung forged deep friendship with the Chinese people.

True to his noble intention, General Secretary Kim Jong Il made undying contributions to boosting the bilateral relations of friendship.

The traditional Sino-Korean friendship provided by the revolutionaries of elder generation is growing stronger under deep concern of General Secretary Hu Jintao and Marshal Kim Jong Un.

No force on earth can break Sino-Korean friendship.

I wish the Korean people greater success in the building of a thriving nation under the wise guidance of the Marshal.

Invincible Sino-Korean friendship will be everlasting along with the current of the Amnok River.
