Pyongyang, February 23 (KCNA) -- A Latin American regional internet seminar "the Juche idea and self-reliance" was held in Brazil on February 14 to mark the Day of the Shining Star (birth anniversary of Chairman Kim Jong Il).

Attending the seminar were chiefs of the organizations for the study of the Juche idea and adherents of the Juche idea in Latin American region.

Lucas Rubio, chairman of the Brazilian Center for the Study of Songun Politics, made a keynote report at the seminar.

He recalled that President Kim Il Sung and Chairman Kim Jong Il founded, developed and enriched the immortal Juche idea to illuminate the road ahead of the era of independence.

He said that the Korean people could liberate their country from the Japanese imperialist colonial rule and win the victory in the hard-fought Fatherland Liberation War as they had the Juche idea, the great ideological weapon.

He said that the proud history and experience of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea which has emerged victorious along the road of Juche serve as the model for the Latin American people in the struggle for independence against imperialism.

Several personages including the chiefs of the organizations for the study of the Juche idea in Mexico, Peru, Venezuela, Chile and Colombia took the floor.

They, introducing the reality of the DPRK which makes all the people well versed in science and technology under the uplifted banner of giving priority to self-development based on modern science and technology, expressed the belief that the Korean people would certainly build a powerful socialist country with their own efforts, technology and resource with self-reliance as the treasured sword for prosperity.

A congratulatory message to Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un was adopted at the seminar. -0-
