Anniversary of Start of Songun Leadership Observed
Pyongyang, August 27 (KCNA) -- Organizations in Peru and Ethiopia issued bulletins on August 18 to commemorate the 50th anniversary of General Secretary Kim Jong Il's start of the Songun revolutionary leadership.

The Peruvian People's Women Union in its bulletin carried photos of President Kim Il Sung,
Kim Jong Il and Kim Jong Suk, an anti-Japanese heroine, and edited an article introducing the Songun leadership feats of Kim Jong Il.

The Songun politics serves as the basic political mode in the DPRK, bulletin in the article said, and went on:

Kim Il Sung, founder of the Songun idea, organized the army and launched the anti-Japanese war to liberate the country and then founded the party and the state.

Kim Jong Il has defended the sovereignty of the country and the dignity of the nation and the peace and security in the Korean Peninsula and the rest of Northeast Asia through his Songun leadership.

He has provided a turning phase of Korea's reunification and remarkably increased the international prestige of the country.

The Ethiopian Youth Study Group of the Juche Idea in its bulletin carried an article titled "The great leader HE Kim Jong Il and the origin of the Songun leadership."

The bulletin noted that Kim Jong Il, who started the Songun revolutionary leadership through his visit to the Seoul Ryu Kyong Su 105 Guards Tank Division of the Korean People's Army, inspected this unit several times.

His inspection of a sub-unit under the tank division at the outset of this year was a demonstration of his unshakable will to dynamically advance the cause of socialism with the might of Songun, it stressed.
