Day of Sun Observed in Benin, Iran
Pyongyang, March 21 (KCNA) -- There took place meetings and film shows in Benin and Iran on March 16 on the occasion of the birth anniversary of President Kim Il Sung (the Day of the Sun).

Participants of the film shows watched Korean films "The Arch of Triumph" and "Arms of Korea".

Present at the events were personages of various circles and masses in those countries.

The vice-president of the Socialist Party of Benin said in a speech:

President Kim Il Sung was the father of the DPRK, the first country for the people in the Korean nation's history spanning five thousand years and a socialist power that remains undeterred by any stern test of history.

The solid political, military and economic foundations provided by him serves as a powerful engine for the DPRK to always emerge victorious.

His undying exploits will shine forever along with the prosperity of socialist Korea.

The director of the Diamond Company of Iran said:

President Kim Il Sung was an outstanding strategist and a great man who made a distinguished contribution to the development of the friendly relations between Iran and the DPRK.

I am rejoiced over the miraculous successes being made by the Korean people in their efforts for building an economic power and improving their standard of living under the guidance of respected HE Kim Jong Un.

The conspiratorial "human rights" campaign being desperately kicked up by the U.S. and its followers can never work on the DPRK.

I hope that the Korean people will register bigger successes in their drive for implementing the tasks set forth by HE Kim Jong Un in his New Year address.
