Day of Shining Star Marked in Switzerland, Germany
Pyongyang, February 15 (KCNA) -- There took place seminars, meeting and book and photo exhibition in Switzerland and Germany on Feb. 7 and 8 on the occasion of the birth anniversary of leader Kim Jong Il (Day of the Shining Star).

On display at the venues of the events were photos documenting the exploits of President Kim Il Sung, leader Kim Jong Il and Marshal Kim Jong Un.

Also on display were works of the peerlessly great men of Mt. Paektu and books and photos introducing the DPRK.

The chief of the Group for the Study of the Juche Idea of Switzerland said at a seminar on Kim Jong Un's work "Let Us Brilliantly Accomplish the Revolutionary Cause of Juche, Holding Kim Jong Il in High Esteem as the Eternal General Secretary of Our Party":

It is natural for the Korean people to hold in high esteem Kim Jong Il as eternal general secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea (WPK) for the exploits he performed on behalf of the era and the revolution by leading the party for a long period. It is in full line with the noble feelings and wishes of all the WPK members and people of the DPRK and moral sense of obligation.

The Korean people will surely emerge victorious in the drive to implement the idea and wishes of Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il as long as there is the wise leadership of Kim Jong Un and the single-minded unity around the WPK.

The chief of the Franken Group for the Study of the Juche Idea of Germany said in his speech at a meeting that a lot of works authored by Kim Jong Il serve as a beacon clearly indicating the way for mankind to follow.

The chairman of the Anti-Imperialist Forum of Germany at a seminar said that Kim Jong Il is always alive in the hearts of mankind for his great exploits performed for the cause of global independence.

Messages of greeting to Kim Jong Un were adopted at the events.
