Anniversary of Kim Jong Suk's Demise Observed
Pyongyang, September 22 (KCNA) -- The Egypt-Korea Friendship Association issued a bulletin on Sept. 16 on the occasion of the 60th anniversary of demise of anti-Japanese heroine Kim Jong Suk.

The bulletin in an article titled "Dec. 24 in Korea" said:

Kim Jong Suk boundlessly revered by the Korean people as an anti-Japanese heroine was born on Dec. 24, 1917.

She took part in the anti-Japanese armed struggle with arms in hand in her early years, greatly contributing to liberating the country.

The greatest of her exploits is that she protected the headquarters of the Korean revolution at the risk of her life and provided a sure guarantee for carrying forward the cause of socialism in the DPRK generation after generation.

Her life and exploits will remain long with eternally prospering socialist Korea.
