November 16 in DPRK

Date: 20/11/2020 | Source: KASS (EN) | Read original version at source

November 16 is the Mother’s Day in the DPRK.

This day every year streets and villages are in festive mood and filled with those who hold beautiful flowers and souvenirs in their hands and hurry their steps to see their mothers.

On Mother’s Day, mothers think deeply when they receive bouquets full of their children’s love and respect.

Looking back on the pre-liberation days, Korean mothers failed to breastfeed their children but shed tears of pain as they could not protect their children’s fate and dream.

From the time when President Kim Il Sung liberated the country, the DPRK women are regarded as the flowers of the family, the country and the revolution leading a happy and worthwhile life.

The First National Meeting of Mothers was held in the DPRK on November 16, 1961.

That day in his historic speech The Duty of Mothers in the Education of Children, President Kim Il Sung said that he expressed his gratitude, on behalf of the Central Committee of the Workers’ Party of Korea and the government of the Republic, to the mothers who were devoting themselves to the education of children and the building of socialism and gave programmatic instructions relating to the education of children.

Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un saw that November 16 when the First National Meeting of Mothers was held in the audience of President Kim Il Sung was instituted as the Mother’s Day. He also took benevolent measures to hold the Fourth National Meeting of Mothers on November 16, 2012.

Greeting the Mother’s Day, the DPRK mothers make their minds to bring up their children into fine daughters and sons so that they can invariably follow the road of the revolution, to make ceaseless contributions to development of their children with their own examples and to give the country much help, by keeping in mind the behests of the great leaders Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il and upholding Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un’s leadership.
