Noting that the DPRK's H-bomb test has stunned the world, Sonkori Baroti, chairman of the Nepali Literary Forum for the Study of Songun Politics, said:

It is a legitimate self-defensive step for the DPRK to bolster up its nuclear deterrence in every way in order to defend the country's sovereignty and the nation's right to existence from the hostile forces' vicious moves.

The U.S. should stop posing threat to the DPRK and withdraw its aggression forces from south Korea at once, well aware that it can never deter the DPRK from bolstering up its nuclear force.

The president of Indonesia's Milenia Armada Ekspres Company said that the DPRK's successful ICBM-ready H-bomb test is a striking demonstration of its powerful might, adding:

Through the recent test, the DPRK proudly rose up to the position of a world nuclear power and military power and the Korean people came to have more powerful nuclear deterrent reliably guaranteeing the country's sovereignty and the nation's right to existence.

We extend full support and solidarity to the struggle of the Korean people resolutely standing against the U.S. high-handed and arbitrary practices.
