The Zimbabwean newspaper The Herald, the Zambian newspaper Top Rating and the South African newspaper Laudium Sun elaborated on the exploits of President Kim Il Sung and Chairman Kim Jong Il for the founding and development of the DPRK in articles under such titles as "On the occasion of the 70th founding anniversary of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea", illustrated with a photo of Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un.

The Kuwaiti newspaper Times said in an article titled "People's country":

Just as the name of the country implies, there are so many things that go by the name of "people" in the DPRK.

This is the reflection of the firm stand of the DPRK to build socialist Korea into a genuine country for the people.

The Bangladeshi paper The Daily Folk said in an article titled "70th founding anniversary of DPRK":

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

The DPRK has overcome continuous ordeals and difficulties for the last seven decades.

Under the leadership of HE Kim Jong Un the DPRK will make a vigorous advance toward the brighter future.

The Egyptian newspaper Al Ahrar told about the great leaders' exploits for national reunification and about the greatness of Kim Jong Un steering the situation on the Korean peninsula in articles under the title of "Defender of peace" and different subtitles.
