The deputy general manager of a company in Tianjin, China, said:

The credit for the success in the satellite launch on the occasion of the first anniversary of demise of Chairman of the National Defence Commission of the DPRK Kim Jong Il goes to the wise leadership of the supreme leader of the DPRK Kim Jong Un.

The successful launch of the satellite was a great event that demonstrated the massive strength of the Korean people who uphold the Workers' Party of Korea's policy of giving importance to the science and technology with loyalty, as well as the national capabilities of the DPRK.

The deputy general manager of the China General Company of Technology Export and Import warmly congratulated the Korean people on their successful satellite launch. He said:

This was a historic event that showed the tremendous national capabilities and the potentials of the DPRK.

The DPRK is the only country in the world that stands firm against the U.S. and says whatever it wants to say.

The hostile forces including the U.S. and Japan dare not provoke the DPRK, in fear of the single-minded unity between the leader and the people.

The chairman of the Maritime Territorial Branch of the Russian civic organization of war veterans' association said that the recent satellite launch is a shining victory for the Korean people in a war against the U.S., and the DPRK would grow stronger and startle the world by launching more powerful satellite though the U.S. tries hard to stifle it.

The chairman of the War Veterans Committee of the Maritime Territory of Russia said that the successful launch of the satellite showed the development of the space science and technology of the DPRK and proved that any move of the hostile forces including the U.S. and Japan to stifle the DPRK would be frustrated in the face of its tremendous capabilities.

Russian figures of various social strata including the deputy governor of the administration of the Maritime Territory of Russia, a representative of the Foreign Ministry in Vladivostok and the editor-in-chief of the Prima-Media News Agency warmly hailed the satellite launch.

The international secretary of the Communist Party of Peru "Red Motherland" said the U.S. and the south Korean puppet regime and other forces hostile to the DPRK portrayed the independent, legitimate and peaceful satellite launch of the DPRK as a long-range missile launch, but to no effect.

The secretary general of the Peruvian-Korean Institute of Culture and Friendship said that the satellite launch and the entry of the satellite into trajectory struck the world with admiration once again.
