Genaro Ledesma Izquieta, chairman of the People's Front of Workers, Peasants and Students of Peru, said at a meeting that the foundation of the DPRK by the President was a great event of historical significance in accomplishing the global cause of socialism.

Felix Fernandes Torres, secretary general of the Peruvian Committee for Supporting the Independent and Peaceful Reunification of Korea, said in his speech that the DPRK founded by the President is the one and only socialist country of Juche where the leader, the party and the masses formed a harmonious whole guided by the Juche idea.

The senior minister in charge of the Royal Palace of Cambodia noted at a seminar that the President actively supported the struggle of the peoples of Cambodia and other developing and non-aligned countries for independence and the building of a new society, hoping that the Korean people would creditably realize the lifelong desire of the President under the Songun leadership of Kim Jong Il.

The manager of the Iran-Korea Friendship Magsal Agro-stock Farm in a round-table talk highly praised Kim Il Sung, founder of the DPRK, as an outstanding strategist and peerlessly brilliant commander who liberated Korea from the Japanese imperialists' colonial rule and brought down the U.S. imperialists, who boasted of being "the strongest" in the world, in the Korean War, demonstrating the might of the DPRK before the whole world.

The mayor of a city of Sao Paulo State of Brazil said in a lecture that they extend full support and solidarity to the Korean people in the efforts to build a thriving socialist nation and achieve national reunification on the occasion of the 62nd birthday of the DPRK.
