The letter said that the 60 year-long history of Chongryon was a glorious and honorable course in which the Juche-based overseas compatriots' movement was pioneered and its victory and dignity was displayed thanks to the distinguished idea and leadership of the peerlessly great persons of Mt. Paektu.

Greeting the 60th anniversary of Chongryon, all its officials and compatriots in Japan feel an ardent yearning for the great Generalissimos Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il as well as the great happiness and honor of having Kim Jong Un as their supreme leader, a great pride of being the Korean nation blessed with illustrious leaders through generations, it said.

The letter noted that Kim Jong Un has guided Chongryon and Korean residents in Japan with his far-sighted wisdom and paternal love though he is very busy with his leadership over the building of a thriving socialist power, the showdown with the U.S. and the movement for national reunification.

The letter praised him as the tender-hearted father of Chongryon and Korean residents in Japan and a great teacher showing the road ahead of the movement of Koreans in Japan and guiding them to brave any difficulties and make new innovations with firm confidence in victory.

In hearty response to his historic letter, all the officials of Chongryon and compatriots in Japan will bring about a new turn in the movement of Koreans in Japan as taught by him, it said.
