The President had had close relationship with many party and state leaders, political and public figures and ordinary persons of different countries and showed warm benevolence for them.

Among them are Genaro Carnero Checa, who was secretary general of the Federation of Latin American Journalists, and his family, Cambodian Great King Norodom Sihanouk and his wife, Shuhachi Inoue, honorary director-general of the International Institute of the Juche Idea, and the family of Zhang Wei-hua, a Chinese anti-Japanese revolutionary martyr.

Checa in his lifetime had honor of being received by the President on several occasions and getting medical treatment under his care.

When meeting a Juche idea study delegation of Peru in April Juche 75 (1986), many years after his death, the President noted with high appreciation, remembering him, that Checa had done a lot of things for the development of the friendly and cooperative relations between the DPRK and Peru. And recalling the days of meeting with Checa's wife and children in the DPRK, he asked the delegation to convey his regards to them.

In fact, more than 70 000 foreigners had honor of being received by the President and getting warm benevolence from him.

Deeply moved by such his loving care that reached to their children, the bereaved family of Takeo Takaki, former Chief Director of the Japan-Korea Cultural Interchange Association, said: President Kim Il Sung is the benevolent father taking warm care of all our family.

Giancarlo Elia Valori, president of the International World Group of Italy who was honored with the audience of Kim Il Sung several times, wrote in his note: There is no limit to love of President Kim Il Sung like the rays of the sun illuminating the outer space. Indeed, he is the only incarnation of love that can be found no longer in the world.

As seen above, President Kim Il Sung was the great sage of humankind who took warm care of all people transcending any country and nation.
