Kim Jong Il Praised by Foreign Personages
Pyongyang, June 19 (KCNA) -- There took place a meeting, photo exhibition and film show in Myanmar and a lecture and film show in DR Congo on June 11 and 13 on the occasion of the 52nd anniversary of leader Kim Jong Il's start of work at the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea (WPK).

Displayed at the venue of the photo exhibition were photos documenting exploits of leader Kim Jong Il and Marshal Kim Jong Un.

Also displayed there were photos showing the Korean people making achievements in building a socialist power.

Tha Win, member of the Central Committee and secretary of the Yangon Regional Committee of the Union Solidarity and Development Party of Myanmar, said it was Kim Jong Il's distinguished exploit that he developed the WPK into the organizer and guide of all victories of the Korean people and led the Korean revolution to one victory after another, turning the DPRK into a politico-ideological power and a military power and laying a solid groundwork for reunifying the country.

Andre Lohekele Kalonda, chairman of the National Committee for the Study of the Juche Idea of DR Congo, and Otete Gaston Mboyo, chairman of the DR Congo-Korea Friendship and Solidarity Association, said in their speeches that Kim Jong Il developed the WPK into the one of President Kim Il Sung, a popular one which formed a harmonious whole with the masses and a political force successfully steering the cause of the Songun revolution.

Korean films such as "Flag of Workers' Party of Korea" were shown at the film shows.

A congratulatory message to Kim Jong Un was adopted at the event held in DR Congo.
