The Communist Party of the Philippines extends its warmest greetings to Comrade Kim Jong Il, General Secretary of the Workers’ Party of Korea, chairman of the National Defense Commission of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea and respected leader of the Korean people on his birthday on 16 February.
Comrade Kim Jong Il has continued and developed the Juche idea introduced by Comrade Kim Il Sung as the guiding principle in building a strong and progressive socialist country.
Under Comrade Kim Jong Il’s leadership, the Workers’ Party of Korea has built a powerful Korean People’s Army that is confident and capable of defending the motherland from external threats. Under his leadership the Workers’ Party of Korea, the Korean People’s Army and the Korean people have stood as one in asserting national sovereignty in the face of numerous attempts at bullying by the imperialist powers led by the United States.
Comrade Kim Jong Il has welded the unity of the people in overcoming many difficulties brought about by natural calamities and economic blockades imposed by the imperialists who wish to destroy Korea’s socialist revolution and construction.
We support the Korean people’s profound aspiration for the independent reunification of Korea, for peace and progress. Under Comrade Kim Jong Il’s wise leadership, we hope that the Korean people will realize this deep national desire in the near future.
We wish Comrade Kim Jong Il, the Workers’ Party of Korea and the Korean people more victories in the future in your struggle to build a society free from exploitation, a nation with dignity and a progressive and prosperous socialist country.
The Communist Party of the Philippines and the revolutionary Filipino people are ever committed to pursue our common cause of building a better world for mankind free from the exploitative and oppressive imperialist system, a world free from the dangers of war, a world of solidarity, friendship and cooperation among peoples.
LONG LIVE COMRADE KIM JONG IL!
LONG LIVE THE UNITY OF THE PARTY, ARMY AND PEOPLE!
SUPPORT THE INDEPENDENT REUNIFICATION OF KOREA!
LONG LIVE SOCIALISM AND COMMUNISM!
LONG LIVE MARXISM-LENINISM!
LONG LIVE PROLETARIAN INTERNATIONALISM!
