Day of Shining Star Celebrated Abroad
Pyongyang, February 29 (KCNA) -- Meetings celebrating the birth anniversary of leader Kim Jong Il (the Day of the Shining Star) took place in Mexico, Peru, Norway, Austria and Bangladesh between Feb. 7 and 12.

Displayed at the venues of the meetings were photos showing the undying feats of President Kim Il Sung, leader Kim Jong Il and Marshal Kim Jong Un.

There were also their works, and books and photos introducing the Korean army and people in their struggle to hasten the final victory.

The general secretary of the Central Committee of the People's Socialist Party of Mexico said that Kim Jong Il reliably protected the country's sovereignty from the imperialist allied forces' vicious challenges and moves to stifle it with his unique Songun politics and turned the DPRK into a politico-ideological giant and military power.

The chief of a radio station in Peru praised him as an outstanding leader and benevolent father of all people who developed and enriched the Juche idea as the great guiding one in the era of independence and devoted his all to the country's prosperity and people's happiness and the cause of human independence.

The chairman of the Ostfold County Committee of the Communist Party of Norway said that the DPRK ranked itself among the satellite manufacturers and launchers thanks the firm groundwork for building a thriving nation provided by him.

Congratulatory messages to Kim Jong Un were adopted at the meetings held in Norway and Austria.
