Pyongyang, April 8 (KCNA) -- The Bulgaria-Korea Friendship Association made public a special bulletin on March 30 with the approach of the birth anniversary of President Kim Il Sung (the Day of the Sun).

The bulletin carried several articles together with a portrait of smiling Kim Il Sung.

An article titled "Day of the Sun" said that every year the Korean people significantly celebrate the birth anniversary of Kim Il Sung as the Day of the Sun, the greatest holiday of the nation, adding:

The Korean people are looking up to him as he devoted his all to the country and its people.

He developed the Workers' Party of Korea into the guiding force of the Korean revolution and strengthened the defence capabilities of the country in every way.

He is boundlessly revered by the Korean people and other progressives for the great exploits he performed for prosperity of the country, people's happiness and victorious advance of the global cause of socialism.

The Korean people instituted the Juche year number with 1912 when he was born as the first year and grandly celebrate April 15, his birthday, as the Day of the Sun.

They saw to it that the Kumsusan Palace of the Sun houses his embalmed body and uphold him as the eternal President of the DPRK.

Another article titled "Kim Il Sung Library" introduced the library which was built in Sofia in reflection of the boundless reverence of Bulgarian people for him.
