  The UK Korean Friendship Association today issued a statement to mark the  Day of the Sun, the 103rd anniversary of the birth of the great leader President KIM IL SUNG the eternal President of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea. UK KFA salutes the memory of the great leader President KIM IL SUNG on the anniversary of his birth.
                                       

                     The great leader President KIM IL SUNG is rightly regarded as the father of the Korean nation who gave independence to the Korean people after the long dark rule of oppressive Japanese colonialism . President KIM IL SUNG led the 20 year long armed struggle against Japanese imperialism which culminated in the liberation of Korea on August 15th 1945. Without a doubt the greatest and most precious thing a people can enjoy is independence.
                                          The great leader President KIM IL SUNG was a true son of the people . He  was born into a humble poor peasant family in Mangyondae. He always believed in the people and shared their joys and sorrows .  He dressed in simple clothes and went amongst the people. He kept an old 'Mokran' television set made in  the DPRK instead of a luxurious foreign made one.

                      The great leader President KIM IL SUNG defeated US imperialism when it tried to conquer and destroy the young people's democracy in the DPRK in the 1950s. Although whole parts of the DPRK were obliterated  President KIM IL SUNG led the struggle to rebuild the DPRK  10 and a 100 times better than before. Under the banner of Juche and self-reliance he led the struggle not only to  rehabilitate and restore industry in the DPRK but to achieve victory in the drive for socialist industrialisation . He built an independent national economy and an advanced socialist system creating a socialist paradise of Juche for the people.
                        The great leader President KIM IL SUNG consistently fought for Korean reunification and for the withdrawal of US troops from the south of Korea. He put forward countless reunification proposals and authored wise strategies for bringing about Korean reunification on the basis of independence without the interference of outside powers.
                    The great leader President KIM IL SUNG was a true internationalist, a great internationalist who supported anti-imperialist independent struggles throughout the world. Pyongyang was a veritable Mecca for liberation fighters from all lands . Throughout his life the great leader President KIM IL SUNG  always opposed US imperialism whilst others cosied up to US imperialism.The Juche Idea authored by the great leader comrade KIM IL SUNG was and is a powerful tool and inspiration for those aspiring for independence from imperialism. President KIM IL SUNG upheld the red banner of socialism even when others dropped it.

UK KFA remember the great leader President KIM IL SUNG for his many achievements which are today carried forward by the dear respected Marshal
KIM JONG UN .
