Kim Jong Un, general secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and president of the State Affairs of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, on September 4 received a congratulatory message from To Lam, general secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Vietnam, and Luong Cuong, president of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam.

In the message, on behalf of the Vietnamese party, state and people and on their own behalf they extended the warmest congratulations to the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un and, through him, to the party, state and people of the DPRK on the occasion of the 77th founding anniversary of the DPRK (September 9, 1948-September 9, 2025).

Highly praising the fraternal party, state and people of the DPRK for achieving important successes over the past 77 years, and extending congratulations to them, the Vietnamese party, state and people are convinced that the fraternal DPRK people will continue to successfully accomplish the goals and tasks for the socio-economic development set forth at the Eighth Congress of the WPK under the leadership of the WPK headed by the respected General Secretary Kim Jong Un, president of the State Affairs, and thus open up a new era of prosperity and development, the message said.

The two countries have set 2025 marking the 75th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations as the "year of Vietnam-DPRK friendship", so this year has become a year of great significance for each country and in the history of bilateral relations, it noted.

They are pleased that the traditional relations of friendship between the two parties and the two countries are steadily developing and, in particular, an important progress is being made after the official goodwill visit of General Secretary Kim Jong Un, president of the State Affairs, to Vietnam in March 2019, it said.

Vietnam wishes to contribute to the peace, stability, cooperation and development in the region and the world by developing the cooperative relations between the two parties and the two countries in a more substantial and effective way in the interests of the people of each country together with the DPRK side, and it is ready for it, the message added.

Availing themselves of this opportunity, they wished Kim Jong Un good health, the DPRK prosperity and the DPRK people happiness, extending friendly greetings to him.

They expressed their hope to meet Kim Jong Un as soon as possible.
