20th Yun I Sang Concert closed
    Pyongyang, September 29 (KCNA) -- The 20th Yun I Sang Concert which
opened on Sept. 26 closed yesterday. Seeing the closing performance were
chairman Jang Chol of the central committee of the General Federation of the
Unions of Literature and the Arts of Korea, working people and artistes in
the city.
    Also seeing it were Ri Su Ja, widow of Yun I Sang, and his daughter and
embassy officials of Germany and Russia here.
    The program included woman's soprano and a trio for violin, cello and
piano composed by Yun I Sang.



Reception given on anniversary of PRC
    Chongjin, September 29 (KCNA) -- The North Hamgyong Provincial Committee
of the DPRK-China Friendship Association gave a reception Friday evening on
the occasion of the 52nd anniversary of the People's Republic of China.
Present on invitation were Liu Zhigang, Chinese consul general in Chongjin,
and staff members of the consulate general.
    Present there were Kim Song Gwon, vice-chairman of the North Hamgyong
Provincial People's Committee who is chairman of the North Hamgyong
Provincial Committee of the DPRK-China Friendship Association, and other
officials concerned.
    Speeches were made there.



Japan's move to draw water to its mill under fire
    Pyongyang, September 29 (KCNA) -- Japan is not qualified to participate
in the joint efforts of the international community to combat terrorism and
all other unstable elements and preserve world peace and stability, said
Minju Joson yesterday in a signed article entitled "Japan keen to benefit
from other's disaster." The article went on:
    Japan is going hectic to take measures, underscoring the need for it to
"cope with the threat of terror" after the recent large-scale attacks on the
U.S. 
    The U.S.- Japan joint military steps taken by Japan to join in the
retaliation actions of the U.S. are a violation of Japan's existing law.
    The Japanese reactionaries seek a very sinister aim in their attempt to
take active military actions for assisting the U.S. in breach of their
existing law. 
    They seek to promptly secure an institutional mechanism needed for the
realization of their militarist ambition for aggression and pretexts for
overseas expansion by disguising themselves as "anti-terror champions," when
the world is upset by what happened in the U.S.
    It is the calculation of Japan that putting up the anti-terror slogan
would help Japan easily pave the way for militarist overseas aggression
without meeting protest and denunciation from the international community.
    This goes to prove that Japan is such a dastardly and wicked country as
to craftily benefit from the disaster that shocked the world.
    This is just like fishing in troubled waters.
    Japan's joining in international military actions under the pretext of
"anti-terrorism" would only adversely affect the efforts to preserve global
peace and stability.
    It is the common task of the international community to solve the
serious problem of terrorism.
    But Japan is not entitled to take part in actions for combating
terrorism as it is an enemy state which committed crimes against humanity in
the past but has not yet redressed them.
    What should be done by Japan now is to settle wrongs committed by it
against mankind in the past.



KCNA urges IAEA to be impartial
    Pyongyang, September 29 (KCNA) -- Director general Mohamed Elbaradei at
the annual conference of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA)
opened on September 17 said that "the IAEA is continuing to monitor the
freeze on facilities in North Korea under the 1994 agreement between the
United States and North Korea, but the agency is unable to verify the
accuracy of North Korea's nuclear program" and a senior Japanese official
was impudent enough to "urge North Korea to cooperate with inspections and
to comply with its obligation under the safeguard agreement promptly and
completely," Kyodo News said. This can not be construed otherwise than
reckless acts of the riffraff to shift the responsibility for the
non-compliance with the agreed framework on to the DPRK, defying
international justice and impartiality, pursuant to the U.S. policy.
    As the DPRK clarified more than once, the issue of implementing the
DPRK-U.S. Agreed Framework (AF) allows no interference by others, as it is a
matter to be solved between the two countries. If the IAEA conference wants
to know who is to blame, it should, first of all, call the U.S. into
question for being insincere in the implementation of the agreed framework.
    2003, the target year for the U.S. provision of LWR to the DPRK is near
at hand. 
    If the U.S. had remained sincere in implementing the AF, it would have
been implemented to such a level as to enable the DPRK and the IAEA to start
negotiations on verifying the accuracy and perfectness of the initial report
on nuclear substance.
    Turning away from all these facts, the IAEA raised the unreasonable
issue of inspection which had originally been expected to be discussed only
after a considerable part of the LWR project was carried out and before the
delivery of major nuclear-related parts. Evidently, this is an act of
putting a brake on implementation of the af.
    Japan, in particular, should drop its bad habit of reading big powers'
faces and pulling up others to meet its own interests.
    Japan has secretly stockpiled plutonium enough to make thousands of
nuclear weapons and is accelerating the development of missiles capable of
carrying nuclear weapons despite the international community's strong
protest and condemnation. It is, therefore, shameless and foolish for Japan
to raise a hue and cry over someone's "fulfilment of obligation."
    In a word, some forces of Japan and the IAEA, hell-bent on the anti-DPRK
hostile policy, have become so reckless as to be unable to distinguish truth
from lies and preserve neutrality and impartiality.
    The IAEA should bear in mind that it should be impartial if it is to
honestly remain true to international justice.



National musical instrument maker
    Pyongyang, September 29 (KCNA) -- The Pyongyang, specially-made musical
instruments company manufactures new varieties of national musical
instruments while conducting research into preserving and adapting
traditional instruments to contemporary needs. Established in Juche 57
(1968) as the central institute of musical instruments, it is staffed by
dozens of researchers and skilled craftsmen. Korea's traditional instruments
produce simple yet graceful, soft sounds representative of national tastes.
    The company's improvements include the minor Haegum (four-string fiddle)
and the Kayagum (plucking instrument). It has diversified the Oungum
(plucking instrument), invented in the early 1960s, into small, medium and
large ones, and recently produced the bass Oungum.
    The plucking Okryugum is particularly popular with musicians and
amateurs alike for its beautiful sounds similar to the jingle of gems. After
its invention in the 1970s, it underwent a series of improvements up to
1998. 
    The researchers have compiled "pictorial book of Korean national musical
instruments" and other books on the same theme.



Phyongbuk Chicken Farm
    Pyongyang, September 29 (KCNA) -- The newly built Phyongbuk Chicken Farm
is equipped with high-tech facilities. It employs computer-controlled
processes from the production and supply of assorted feed through to egg
production and meat processing. The farm has an annual production capacity
of thousands of tons of meat and huge quantities of eggs. In the
egg-hatching unit a single machine can handle 38,000 eggs. The chicks'
breeding is controlled by computer and they weigh at least two kilogrammes
within 40 days. 
    The meat-processing unit can deal with 1,000 chickens per hour, while
the feed production unit also has a streamlined process.



KEDO delegation leaves
    Pyongyang, September 29 (KCNA) -- The delegation of the Korean Peninsula
Energy Development Organization (KEDO) left here today after participating
in the high-level negotiations for the implementation of the agreement on
the provision of light water reactors between the DPRK and the KEDO.



Greetings to President of Botswana
    Pyongyang, September 29 (KCNA) -- Kim Yong Nam, President of the
Presidium of the Supreme People's Assembly of the DPRK, on September 25 sent
a message of greetings to Fetus G. Mogae, President of Botswana, on the
occasion of the 35th anniversary of its independence. Expressing the belief
that the relations between the two countries would grow stronger in the idea
of independence, peace and friendship in the new century, too, the message
wished the president and people of Botswana great success in their work for
the progress and prosperity of the country.



Jong Ha Chol meets Chinese delegation
    Pyongyang, September 29 (KCNA) -- Jong Ha Chol, secretary of the Central
Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea, met and had a conversation with
the delegation of journalists of the Yonbyon Ilbo of China led by its
editor-in-chief Xu Rongxi at the Mansudae Assembly Hall today. Present there
was Kim Song Guk, chairman of the central committee of the Korean
Journalists Union. 
    Saying that the delegation was deeply impressed by the Korean people who
are dynamically advancing, holding high the red flag under the slogan "Let
us always be cheerful although our path is thorny," the head of the
delegation noted that the people with this faith and spirit will surely
overcome any difficulties.
    He expressed the belief that the Korean people would make great success
in socialist construction under the wise leadership of Kim Jong Il.



For Spanish-speaking people


atcc comenta problema de ejecucion de acuerdo basico rpdc- ee.uu.
    pyongyang, 29 de septiembre (atcc) -- segun la agencia noticiera kyoto
del japon, baradei, director general del organismo internacional de energia
atomica en la reunion anual efectuada el dia 17 de este mes dijo que "pese a
la vigilancia sobre la congelacion de las instalaciones nucleares de
norcorea segun el acuerdo basico rpdc-ee.uu. es imposible confirmar la
exactitud del plan nuclear de pyongyang" y un alto funcionario del japon
hablo atrevidamente de que " exhortamos a norcorea a dar cooperacion a la
inspeccion y ejecutar pronta y totalmente su deber segun el acuerdo". sus
palabras parten del designio de imputar a la rpdc la responsabilidad de su
incumplimiento del acuerdo al bailar al son que les tocan los estados unidos
en desacato a la justicia internacional y la imparcialidad.
    como hemos afirmado reiteradamente, la ejecucion del acuerdo basico
rpdc-ee.uu. siendo una cuestion entre estos dos paises no necesita la
injerencia de la tercera parte. si la reunion del oiea quiere preguntar
sobre la responsabilidad de ese respecto, debera cuestionar ante todo la
actitud desleal de ee.uu. en cuanto a su ejecucion del acuerdo.
    si ee.uu. era fiel al acuerdo basico, podria progresar la ejecucion del
acuerdo a la altura de que la rpdc y el oiea entablen las negociaciones
relativas a la verificacion de la exactitud y la perfeccion del informe
inicial sobre el material nuclear. ee.uu. se comprometio a terminar la
construccion de reactores de agua ligera hasta el ano 2003.
    sin embargo el oiea propone injustamente el problema de la inspeccion
que ha de ser discutido despues de ser efectuada considerablemente la
construccion de los objetos de reactores de agua ligera y antes de ser
entregadas las importantes partes relativas a estos reactores.
    evidentemente con tal proceder pone freno a la ejecucion del acuerdo.
    en particular, el japon debe abandonar su mal habito de acusar siempre
al otro al escudrinar la intencion de las potencias conforme a sus
intereses. 
    este pais, pese a la poderosa protesta y denuncia de la sociedad
internacional, tiene acumulada onerosa cantidad de plutonio necesaria para
fabricar miles de armas nucleares y da espuelas al desarrollo de misiles
capaces de portar artefactos nucleares. no obstante, ridiculamente habla de
la "ejecucion del deber" de la rpdc.
    en una palabra, el japon y otras fuerzas del oiea, cautivados en el
sentimiento de hostilidad a la rpdc no distinguen la verdad de la falsedad
ni observan la neutralidad y la equidad.
    si de veras quiere ser fiel a la justicia internacional el oiea debe
actuar imparcialmente.



partio de regreso delegacion de kedo
    pyongyang, 29 de septiembre (atcc) -- la delegacion de la organizacion
para el desarrollo de la energia en la peninsula coreana (kedo) salio hoy de
esta capital luego de participar en las negociaciones de alto rango para la
ejecucion del convenio de ofrecimiento de reactores de agua ligera entre la
republica popular democratica de corea y la kedo.



dirigente kim jong il envia cesto de flores a embajada de cuba
    pyongyang, 29 de diciembre (atcc) -- el gran dirigente kim jong il envio
hoy un cesto de flores a la embajada de la republica de cuba en la rpdc con
motivo del 42 aniversario del triunfo de la revolucion cubana. el cesto de
flores fue entregado a jose manuel inclan embade, embajador cubano.
    en la cinta del cesto de flores se lee: "felicito calurosamente el 42
aniversario del triunfo de la revolucion cubana. kim jong il".
