Agricultural workers met with a DPRK hero in celebration of the 78th founding anniversary of the Korean People's Army on February 5.

Present there were Han Jong Hyok, chairman of the Central Committee of the Union of Agricultural Workers of Korea, union officials and agricultural workers in Pyongyang.

DPRK Hero Ho Ryong, a lecturer of the Victorious Fatherland Liberation War Museum, who struck terror into the pilot of the US imperialists' strategic reconnaissance plane which intruded into the sky over the economic waters in the East Sea of Korea, addressed the meeting.

He said that Chairman Kim Jong Il organized and led the superb operation to deal a heavy blow to the arrogant US imperialists.

Recalling with pride the unforgettable day of successful battle, he said that he could work a military miracle unprecedented in history as he fought with the Juche-oriented military strategy, idea and tactics, courage and pluck of the Workers' Party of Korea.

Whenever the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un visited our unit, he highly praised me for having given pleasure and satisfaction to Chairman Kim Jong Il and recollected my feat once again in January 2012, showing me warm affection, Ho noted with deep emotion.

He asked all the union officials and agricultural workers to firmly defend the Party and Korean-style socialism with increased grain production by inheriting the fighting spirit of the preceding generations.

Then followed speeches. The speakers expressed their determination to devote themselves to immediate farming processes with the honour of being the citizens of the dignified DPRK with matchless military muscle and glorify this year when the Ninth Congress of the Workers' Party of Korea is to be held with increased grain production.
