Letter to Kim Jong Un from General Association of Koreans in China
Pyongyang, December 17 (KCNA) -- Supreme leader Kim Jong Un received a letter from the General Association of Koreans in China Saturday, the 5th anniversary of demise of leader Kim Jong Il.

The letter said that for the past five years since the nation wriggled in agony over the sudden demise of the fatherly General, the Korean residents in China had keenly realized once again what great and kind-hearted man the Korean nation held in high esteem as its leader and father in its life and struggle and they had deeply enshrined the immutable truth that as long as there is Marshal Kim Jong Un, President Kim Il Sung and leader Kim Jong Il are always alive in the hearts of the overseas Koreans and humankind.

Kim Jong Il performed immortal and great feats on behalf of the country and its people, the times and history by wisely leading the party, the army and the people for many years, the letter noted.

It pointed out that he conducted energetic ideological and theoretical activities and external activities for the victory of the socialist cause, global peace and stability and friendship and solidarity among peoples under the uplifted banner of independence against imperialism and put the international status and prestige of the DPRK on the highest level and made an great and immortal contribution to the human cause of independence.

The great leaders had always taken warm care of the work and life of the Koreans in China just as their real parents would do and highly estimated and put forward them when they did something they should have done for the country and the nation, it said.

It noted that the General Association of Koreans in China and all Korean residents in China are filled with the firm will to bring about a fresh heyday of the movement of overseas compatriots without fail under the leadership of Kim Jong Un.
