Pyongyang, June 18 (KCNA) -- Information workers of primary trade union organizations across the country toured revolutionary battle sites and revolutionary sites in Mt. Paektu area from June 12 to 18 to mark the 49th anniversary of General Secretary Kim Jong Il's start of work at the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea.

During their march, they laid floral baskets and flowers before the statutes of President Kim Il Sung at the Monument to Victorious Battle of Pochonbo, Pochonbo Revolutionary Battle Site, shore of Lake Samji and the Chongbong Bivouac Ground and the mosaic depicting the three commanders of Mt. Paektu at its secret camp and paid tribute to them.

In Pochonbo they looked round the then Command Post of the Pochonbo Battle, police post of the Japanese imperialists, sub-county office and other places.

After being briefed on the Samjiyon Grand Monument, they went round groups of sculptures and visited the Samjiyon Revolutionary Museum.

They commanded a bird's eye-view of the majestic Lake Chon on Mt. Paektu and its forest, recollecting with deep emotion the great revolutionary history and undying feats of the peerlessly great persons.

After visiting the Paektusan secret camp, they held an oath-taking meeting before Kim Jong Il's old home in the Paektusan secret camp.

At the end of the meeting they looked round with keen interest the historic relics preserved with good care at the old home.

They marched toward the Chongbong Bivouac Ground, the Konchang Bivouac Ground and the Rimyongsu Revolutionary Site, holding anti-Japanese guerilla-style information and agitation contest, question-and-answer study contest, sports games and other political and cultural events.
