You not only invited the delegation of the General Association to the celebrations of the 105th birth anniversary of President Kim Il Sung and the 75th birth anniversary of leader Kim Jong Il and showed the warmest love for it but also repeatedly bestowed trust and solicitude for the strengthening of the General Association.

Under your warm compatriotic love and wise guidance, the Koreans in China could most significantly celebrate the Day of the Sun and the Day of the Shining Star as the greatest holiday of the nation and dynamically conduct the patriotic movement for contributing to the national reunification and the building of a powerful socialist country by further strengthening the General Association of Koreans in China into a patriotic organization and uniting the broad masses of compatriots.
