WPK Birthday Marked by Koreans in Russia
Pyongyang, October 7 (KCNA) -- The United Confederation of Koreans in Russia held a function in Moscow on Oct. 1 to celebrate the 64th anniversary of the founding of the Workers' Party of Korea.

Sok Song, first vice-chairman of the confederation, made a report there to be followed by speeches.

The reporter and speakers said that the Korean people are calling the WPK a "mother party", adding that this call would be unthinkable without General Secretary Kim Jong Il.

They recalled that Kim Jong Il has pursued benevolent politics, all-embracing politics, regarding it as his maxim to believe in people as in Heaven.

They noted that he made sure that the WPK wisely led the struggle to build a socialist country centered on the popular masses under the slogan "We serve the people!".

The WPK set the goal of opening the gate to a great prosperous and powerful nation in 2012, the centenary of birth of President Kim Il Sung, and has led the people to the struggle for attaining it, they said, and continued:

Absolute and unbounded are the Korean people's trust and support for the WPK.
