Pyongyang, September 23 (KCNA) -- The Arab-Korean Cooperation Council posted on its website an article titled "The Anti-Japanese War Heroine Kim Jong Suk" on September 19.

The website in the article illustrated with photos of President Kim Il Sung and the anti-Japanese war heroine Kim Jong Suk said that history knows many prominent women renowned for their dedications to the progress and prosperity of their countries and nations, but no outstanding woman political activist except for Kim Jong Suk who devoted her all to the freedom and happiness of people.

The article said that she joined the Korean People's Revolutionary Army led by the President in 1935 and waged long bloody battles with arms in hands for the liberation of the country, thus winning fame as an anti-Japanese war woman commander and competent political activist during those days.

She had displayed matchless bravery, outstanding strategies and astonishing marksmanship in many battles, it noted, adding it is her greatest exploit that she had resolutely defended the President.

It noted that after the liberation of Korea, she had faithfully assisted the President who was working hard to build a new country.

She was loved and revered by the people for having performed immortal feats on behalf of the country and nation, but passed away at her early age on September 22, 1949, it said.

It stressed that the noble life of Kim Jong Suk, which remains as an indelible trace in the modern history of Korea, will shine long along with the prosperous DPRK.
