Pyongyang, November 29 (KCNA) -- Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un sent a birthday spread to Jang Ho, an indomitable pro-reunification patriotic fighter, on his 100th birthday.
Jang Ho, born into a poor family in Mapho District, Seoul City, keenly experienced the grief at statelessness, being subjected to maltreatment and contempt in a foreign country.
He could lead a worthwhile life only after President Kim Il Sung liberated the country and built a genuine country of the people.
He dedicated himself to the building of a new country out of his pledge to live up to the President's benevolence. He, as a journalist, contributed to encouraging the people to win victory in the Fatherland Liberation War and to turn out in the postwar reconstruction.
He was arrested by enemy while bravely struggling for national reunification. He fought for over 30 years in jail to preserve his revolutionary faith and obligation with firm belief in our Party.
Chairman Kim Jong Il made sure that he and other unconverted long-term prisoners, who had invariably taken the road of patriotism and reunification, were repatriated to the socialist homeland and awarded the Title of DPRK Hero, National Reunification Prize and other state commendations.
Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un, taking warm care of him, saw to it that he took part as delegate in major national events such as the celebrations for the 100th birthday of President Kim Il Sung, the 4th National Conference of War Veterans and the Seventh Congress of the Workers' Party of Korea.
The former unconverted long-term prisoner thanked the Party for remembering his birthday and bestowing benevolence on him. -0-
