Kim Jong Il's Songun Leadership Exploits Praised
Pyongyang, August 25 (KCNA) -- Meetings, seminars, round-table talks, photo exhibitions and film shows took place in Romania, Pakistan, Iran, Peru and the Czech Republic between August 14 and 18 to mark the 50th anniversary of General Secretary Kim Jong Il's start of the Songun revolutionary leadership.

Displayed in their venues were photos showing the Songun leadership feats of President Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il.

The president of the Romanian Socialist Union said at a meeting that the DPRK has firmly defended the sovereignty and dignity of the country in the stand-off with the U.S. styling itself the world's "only superpower" thanks to the Songun politics pursued by Kim Jong Il.

He wished the Korean people greater success in their efforts to build a thriving nation and achieve the country's reunification under the Songun leadership of Kim Jong Il.

The secretary general of the Lahore Branch of the Pakistan-Korea Friendship Association said in a report made at the seminar that the capability for self-defence in the DPRK has grown stronger than ever before and shining miracles unprecedented in its history are taking place on all fronts of socialist construction under the banner of Songun.

The participants of the film shows watched such Korean films as "Reply of Korea" and "Night of Pyongyang".

A message of greetings to Kim Jong Il was adopted at the event held in Pakistan.
