When the Supreme Leader of the Party, state and armed forces of the DPRK arrived at the venue of the photo session, he was presented with bouquets by teachers.

Waving back to the enthusiastically cheering participants, he extended a warm salute to them.

Noting that teachers are communists, genuine patriots and career revolutionaries who are building the rosy future of the country, he called upon the participants to bring about a turn in the field of education, well aware of the intention of the Party to make the conference held on an unprecedented scale an important occasion for the sake of a great essential improvement in education.

Expressing expectation and belief that the teachers and education officials would devote their pure conscience, wisdom and zeal to the education of the rising generation with a high degree of awareness that they are directly in charge of the implementation of the WPK's revolutionary policy for bringing about a radical turn in Juche-oriented development of education and thus fully discharge their responsibility and duty as teacher revolutionaries, the Supreme Leader had a photo session with the participants.

He summoned members of a delegation of education officials of the General Association of Korean Residents in Japan to have a photo session with them.

Accompanying the Supreme Leader were Kim Jae Ryong, Pak Thae Song, Jon Kwang Ho and Kim Sung Du.
