Respected Comrade Kim Jong Un Sends Birthday Spread to Centenarian
Pyongyang, August 22 (KCNA) -- The number of centenarians is on the increase in the DPRK under the benefits of the socialist system.

The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un sent a birthday spread to Jong Won Ok living in Paekam-dong, Tanchon City of South Hamgyong Province, on her 100th birthday.

Jong, who had to undergo the sorrow of a stateless nation before Korea's liberation, could lead a genuine and happy life, doing farm on her own land, thanks to President Kim Il Sung's benevolence.

During the Fatherland Liberation War, she took the lead in assisting the front and increasing the grain production with a single mind to defend the genuine people's country. Even after the war, she had voluntarily done good things for the country.

Officials of the General Bureau of the Tanchon Area Mining Industry and the Komdok Mining Complex and neighbors visited her family to celebrate her centenarian birthday.
