Mun Chol, Chairman of the Central Committee of the Socialist Patriotic Youth League, made a report, which was followed by speeches.

The reporter and speakers said the expedition could arrive at Mangyongdae after successfully winding up the 1,000-ri journey entirely thanks to the warm loving care of the respected fatherly Marshal Kim Jong Un who always paid deep attention to the expedition of schoolchildren and kindly looked after them step by step.

They stressed that the recent expedition served as a significant occasion which enabled them to have a deep understanding of the lofty intention and ardent patriotism of Kim Il Sung who made the 1,000-ri journey of revolution in his teens and harden their burning pledge to firmly carry on the baton of the Juche revolution following Kim Jong Un.
