WPK's Birthday Observed in Peru
Pyongyang, October 17 (KCNA) -- A Peruvian national meeting took place in Lima on October 9 to mark the 69th founding anniversary of the Workers' Party of Korea (WPK).

Present there were personages of political parties and organizations and other people of Peru.

Genaro Ledesma Izquieta, chairman of the People's Front of Workers, Peasants and Students of Peru, said: The foundation of the WPK and the course of its development serve as a noble model for us who are struggling for the sovereignty and the people's happiness.

The secretary general of the Peruvian Group for the Study of Kimilsungism-Kimjongilism who doubles as chairman of the Peruvian Committee for Remembering Generalissimo Kim Jong Il noted that the party-building exploits of President Kim Il Sung and leader Kim Jong Il who founded the great Juche idea and built and strengthened the revolutionary party of Juche on its basis will be immortal.

The leading function and role of the WPK in the revolution and construction are being developed onto a high level thanks to Marshal Kim Jong Un, the great successor to the cause of Juche, the cause of Songun, he said, adding:

The revolutionary parties of the world should learn from the model of the WPK.

Roberto Carbonel Pezo, chairman of the Peru-Korea Friendship Institute for the Study of the Juche-based Songun Policy, said that the WPK would as ever win victory after victory as it gives top priority to the interests of the popular masses and absolutely defends their interests.

Yuri Castro Romero, secretary general of the Peruvian-Korean Institute of Culture and Friendship, noted that Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il developed the WPK into the most revolutionary and independent party, adding that their party-building exploits are being successfully carried forward by Kim Jong Un.
