Austrian Delegation Interviewed
Pyongyang, February 28 (KCNA) -- The members of the delegation of the Left Bloc of the Austrian Trade Union Federation on a visit to the DPRK were interviewed by KCNA on Feb. 27.

Oliver Jonischkeit, head of the delegation, said:

I was deeply impressed to visit the International Friendship Exhibition House while staying here. Not only party and state leaders and prominent figures of many countries but politicians of countries hostile to the DPRK presented gifts to the respected President Kim Il Sung and HE the great Kim Jong Il.

The gifts on display help the visitors know well what high prestige the peerlessly great men enjoy.

He noted that during their stay in the DPRK they witnessed the Korean people striving hard to open the gate to a great prosperous powerful country in 2012 true to the leadership of Kim Jong Il.

We felt a lot visiting the Pyongyang 326 Electric Wire Factory, he said, and continued:

We were moved to see workers at work at the modern factory, provided with excellent living conditions.

Oskar Smetana, member of the delegation, had this to say: Many countries are in the grip of serious joblessness due to the financial crisis, but the workers in the DPRK are leading a stable life.

Goran Lavric, member of the delegation, said the visit helped him clearly realize that the reality of the DPRK is quite different from what was reported by Western media.

The Korean people are dynamically advancing along the road of their own choice, rallied close around Kim Jong Il, he stressed.
