DPRK Birthday Observed by Foreign Media
Pyongyang, September 29 (KCNA) -- Foreign media carried special write-ups under various titles including "70th founding anniversary of the DPRK".

The Cambodian newspaper Khmer Times carried an article illustrated with a photo of Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un, which said:

The DPRK, the first people's democratic state in the East, was founded on Sept. 9 1948.

President Kim Il Sung, hero of the Korean nation, waged the hard-fought anti-Japanese armed struggle to liberate the country and roused all the people to the building of a new state where the working people lead a happy life equally, free from exploitation and oppression.

The Korean people became the master of the country for the first time in the history of 5 000 years.

The birth of the DPRK was recorded as an epochal event in the history of the Korean people's struggle for building an independent and sovereign state.

Noting that the DPRK is demonstrating its prestige and might as a powerful country thanks to its outstanding leaders, the article referred to the greatness of President Kim Il Sung, Chairman Kim Jong Il and Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un.

AKP and Apsara Sound Broadcasting of Cambodia praised the greatness of Kim Jong Un who basks in the glow of world attention.

The Cuban newspaper Granma and Iran's Ilna and the Iran News reported about the state-building exploits of Kim Il Sung and the proud reality of the DPRK.
