UK KOREAN FRIENDSHIP ASSOCIATION
London 5th of April 2012(Juche 101)

The UK Korean Friendship Association today issued the following statement on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the birth of the great leader comrade Kim Il Sung;
It will shortly, on April 15th, be the 100th anniversary of the birth of the great leader comrade Kim Il Sung. This event will be celebrated magnificently not only in the DPRK by KFA and friends of Korea throughout the world. UK KFA joins them in spirit in these celebrations.
Comrade Kim Il Sung was born into a poor and humble family but became a great statesman and elder of world politics. He fought from an early age for the independence of Korea which had been trampled underfoot by the accursed Japanese imperialist aggressors. Leading the anti- Japanese armed struggle to victory by dint of his protean guerrilla tactics general Kim Il Sung achieved the independence of Korea in 1945, the cherished desire of the entire Korean people.
The great leader comrade Kim Il Sung led several decades of socialist construction in Korea building an independent socialist country based on Juche and self-reliance which is a model for the world particularly the third world countries throwing off the yoke of colonialism and neo-colonialism.
The great leader president Kim Il Sung inspired the peoples of the world in their struggle for independence against imperialism. He set a practical example by defeating the US imperialist aggressors and setting on the downhill path. He wrote many works exposing imperialism and calling for unyielding struggle against it. He made no compromise with imperialism unlike others. He met numerous leaders such as Che Guevara, Allende,Sekou Toure ,Mao Ze Dong , Zhou En Lai and Tito and shared experience with them.
Comrade Kim Il Sung made a great contribution to world peace by constantly struggling against US imperialism the main source of war in the world. By smashing the moves of the US imperialists to provoke a second and third Korean war he ensured that the Korean peninsula would not be the flash-point of a new world war. He always strove for the independent and peaceful reunification of Korea and put realistic policies to acheive this
The great leader President Kim Il Sung was not only a great
statesman but a true people's leader who declared "The people are my god" and pursued people-orientated policies throughout his life. In the DPRK many things are named after the people such as People's hospitals and the Grand Peoples Study House. The DPRK,under the leadership of the great leader comrade Kim Il Sung has provided people with the right to work,housing is provided at a very low cost or even totally free(one could only sigh when you contrast this to the recent headline about house prices in London going up even faster).Education is also free up to all levels which include university and post graduate study. School clothes and other things for children are either free or sold at 50% of cost price. Mothers with more than 3 children can work a 6 hour day but be paid for 8 hours. The retirement age is 60 for men and 55 for women. Free medical care was introduced in 1953 and buttressed by further legalisation in 1960 and 1980 .All treatment is including medicine is free and the state even pays travelling expenses to the sanatorium! Taxation including local autonomy tax was abolished in 1974. Thus the DPRK became a people's socialist paradise.
The great leader President Kim Il Sung was the author of the Juche Idea a philosophy aimed at achieving human independence . The Juche idea is now studied throughout the world. President Kim Il Sung was the pioneer of the Songun idea , the treasured sword for defending socialism and independence.
The UK Korean Friendship Association is very proud of the great leader President Kim Il Sung , father of the Korean nation and builder of socialist Korea. On the occasion of his 100th birthday we salue him, the great leader of the Korean and world people ! Manse !
It is the duty of all progressive people to carry forward and apply the teachings of the great leader comrade Kim Il Sung and defend Juche Korea,the bastion of socialism in today‘s world. The Juche revolutionary cause started by the great leader comrade Kim Il Sung, which had been continued by the great leader comrade Kim Jong Il , is now carried forward by dear respected general Kim Jong Un supreme leader of the WPK and DPRK and supreme commander of the Korean People’s Army.
