63rd Anniversary of DPRK Marked by Foreign Media

Pyongyang, September 23 (KCNA) -- Newspapers of Laos, Nepal, Pakistan and radio of Uganda observed the 63rd anniversary of the DPRK.

The Laotian newspaper Noum Lao from Sept. 1 to 15 carried an article titled "People's Country" illustrated with a photo of President Kim Il Sung.

It was the firm view of Kim Il Sung, founder of socialist Korea, that comprehensively reflecting and systematizing the will and wishes of the people precisely leads to an idea and line and policies, the article said, and went on:

He carried out the agrarian reform to realize the Korean peasants' centuries-old desire to till their own land.

He also made sure that the Law on Sex Equality was promulgated, reflecting the women's desire to lead a life worthy of a human being free from the social status in which they were subject to all sorts of humiliation and non-rights.

A dynamic drive is now under way in the DPRK to build a thriving socialist nation to realize the people's wishes under the wise leadership of Kim Jong Il.

It is bringing about a radical turn in the efforts to improve the standard of people's living and build a thriving nation by putting spurs to the light industry once again.

The Sept. 9 issue of Nepal Today carried an article which gives a detailed account of the DPRK government's efforts to fully guarantee by law the right of the popular masses as the masters of the state and provide them with a highly civilized material and cultural life.

The Sept. 11 issue of Baluchistan Times of Pakistan carried an article praising the undying feats performed by Kim Il Sung for the strengthening and development of the Non-aligned Movement.

State Radio of Uganda on Sept. 9 in a program introduced the glorious history of more than six decades covered by the DPRK.
