Officials and members of the General Federation of Trade Unions of Korea from across the DPRK made a study tour of the revolutionary battle sites in the area of Mt Paektu from July 29 to August 4.

After touring Chongbong and Konchang bivouacs, following the course of horseback march of the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un, they visited the Paektusan Secret Camp associated with the legends about the anti-Japanese war heroes.

Looking at the historical relics preserved in the time-honoured birthplace of Chairman Kim Jong Il in the Paektusan Secret Camp, they solemnly looked back upon his sacred revolutionary career.

On the top of Mt Paektu, they shouted hurrah with joy and emotion.

They toured Mupho Bivouac, the Monument to the Victorious Battle of the Musan Area and the Sinsadong Revolutionary Battle Site.

They held a meeting at the plaza before the statue of Kim Jong Il in Samjiyon City on August 4 to make a pledge to successfully accomplish the cause of building a socialist power of Juche, remaining faithful to the ideology and leadership of Kim Jong Un.

All the participants pledged to greet the Ninth Congress of the Workers' Party of Korea with gifts of proud labour of fulfilling the five-year plan by more fiercely kindling the flames of the drive for increased production and economy movement at the workplaces of the worthwhile struggle for implementing the decisions of the plenary meetings of the Party Central Committee, full of the revolutionary spirit of Paektu.

During the march, they camped in fields like the anti-Japanese guerrillas and held a question-and-answer study contest, a meeting to tell impressions of the reminiscences of anti-Japanese guerrillas, a contest of singing revolutionary songs in chorus while marching in array and other political and cultural activities and made the rounds of the Samjiyon Revolutionary Museum and the Samjiyon Potato Farina Factory.
