BEIJING, Oct. 10 (Xinhua) — Xi Jinping, general secretary of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, on Friday sent a congratulatory message to Kim Jong Un, general secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea (WPK), on the 80th founding anniversary of the WPK.

In his message, Xi Jinping, on behalf of the CPC Central Committee and on his own behalf, conveyed warm congratulations and best wishes to Comrade General Secretary Kim Jong Un, the WPK Central Committee, all party members and the people of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of the founding of the WPK.

The Chinese leader noted that over the past 80 years, the WPK has united the people of the DPRK and led them forward, overcoming difficulties and achieving impressive successes in advancing the country's socialist cause.

According to him, in recent years, the WPK and the people of the DPRK, under the leadership of Comrade Kim Jong-un, have been working tirelessly to strengthen party building, develop the economy, and improve the standard of living of the population.

Xi Jinping expressed his hope that under the strong leadership of the WPK, headed by Comrade General Secretary Xi Jinping, the socialist cause of the DPRK would continue to achieve new achievements. He also wished the country a successful convening of the 9th Congress of the WPK.

Noting that China and the DPRK are both socialist countries led by communist parties, Xi Jinping stressed that he has held several meetings with Kim Jong Un in recent years to guide the development of relations between the two parties and the two countries, opening a new chapter in the friendship between China and the DPRK.

Xi Jinping also recalled Kim Jong-un's recent visit to China to attend celebrations marking the 80th anniversary of the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War. During the visit, the leaders held an in-depth exchange of views and charted a course for the further development of friendly and cooperative relations between China and the DPRK.

No matter how the international situation changes, the policy of the CPC and the Chinese government to maintain, strengthen and develop relations between the PRC and the DPRK remains unchanged, the Chinese leader noted.

China is willing to work with the DPRK to strengthen strategic communication, deepen practical cooperation, enhance coordination, and promote the steady development of bilateral relations, so as to better serve the socialist cause of both countries and make positive contributions to peace, stability, and prosperity in the region and the world, Xi Jinping said.

Dar es Salaam, October 10 (Xinhua) — In the 21st century, building a better life is impossible without the comprehensive advancement of women's causes, and this requires greater wisdom and strength from women. This was the statement made by Gertrude Mongella, Secretary-General of the Fourth World Conference on Women, held in the Chinese capital in 1995.

“We are now awaiting further implementation of the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action adopted at the 1995 conference,” Mongella said in an interview with Xinhua.

From October 13 to 14, the Global Women's Summit will be held in Beijing to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the World Conference on Women. Mongella will also participate.

"I've always emphasized that I brought the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action home. I hope that the Beijing Actions will be further developed in Tanzania," said Mongella, noting that she brought these two important documents back to Africa immediately after the 1995 conference.

"After participating in the Beijing Conference, I returned to Tanzania and, at an event on women's issues, presented documents related to the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action to then-President Benjamin Mkapa. I believe women want these ideas to be implemented," Mongella noted.

She recalled that during the Beijing Conference, countries began to encourage women's access to computers and information technology, but in Africa, women are often left behind because many do not have basic literacy and numeracy skills.

Literacy and basic education are key links that open up opportunities for further empowerment, she said.

"The Chinese women I know are hardworking and have long been involved in industrial development. I've often attended events featuring Chinese women in education and industry, particularly in the textile sector. Remarkably, they are also involved in China's ongoing achievements in science and technology," said Mongella, adding that these observations have reinforced her confidence in the strength and creative potential of Chinese women.

"Women's development must keep pace with global developments. The world is changing rapidly, technology is advancing rapidly, and information technology is constantly evolving. We've even entered the era of artificial intelligence. The world is entering a new era of information technology, and women must be part of it. If we're not part of this process, we won't succeed. That's why I believe that when we return to Beijing, we must consider these issues very seriously," said G. Mongella.

She called on governments and societies to step up efforts to implement the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action and expressed hope that Chinese and African women would work together to share information, knowledge and technology for the common development of all countries around the world. –0–

TAIYUAN, Oct. 10 (Xinhua) — This year's eight-day holiday to celebrate China's National Day and the Mid-Autumn Festival (Zhongqiujie or Moon Festival) saw a surge in domestic tourism, with history and "red tourism" becoming increasingly popular among families and young travelers.

As this year marks the 80th anniversary of the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War, many parents took their children to memorial sites of revolutionary glory and patriotic education bases to experience a deep sense of national pride and historical connection.

"This year, we planned to dedicate the National Day weekend to the theme of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression. Over the past few days, my child and I have visited numerous sites as part of the Red Tourism program," said Sun Yan, a tourist from northern China's Hebei Province.

Her family's first stop was the Battle of the Hundred Regiments Memorial Museum in Yangquan, Shanxi Province, North China.

In 1940, to counter Japanese aggression, the 8th Army, under the leadership of the Communist Party of China, launched the monumental “Battle of the Hundred Regiments”, the largest and longest strategic offensive carried out by the 8th Army in Northern China during the Anti-Japanese War.

According to Qin Zhu, deputy director of the memorial museum, the site saw a significant number of tourists over the weekend. During the first seven days, the facility averaged 10,000 visitors per day, more than triple last year's figures. To accommodate the increased visitor flow, the memorial museum added tour guides and recruited volunteers to explain the historical context to tourists.

"Not only we, but also many of our friends, took their children to popular destinations during the holidays as part of 'red tourism.' For children, history is the best textbook," Sun Yan added.

The former Huangyadong Arsenal in Licheng County, Shanxi Province, has also seen a surge in tourism. The arsenal was the earliest and largest weapons production base established by the 8th Army in the anti-Japanese strongholds, and was also the site of the historic Battle of Huangyadong.

According to Zhang Binquan, a representative of the Huangyadong Tourism Zone, the tourist flow to this place from October 1 to 7 amounted to 36,000 people, which is 11.8 percent more than a year ago.

According to experts, the 80th anniversary of the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War sparked a boom in red tourism during the National Day weekend. The recent release of several films depicting wartime events has further piqued public interest in studying history and visiting sites associated with it.

Beyond traditional exhibitions, many innovative venues are innovating to attract more visitors.

"Our red tourism products are constantly evolving," noted Qin Zhu. "We've introduced VR equipment to improve the customer experience and prepared immersive micro-performances with live actors."

“Through aqua shows, folklore performances, and lectures, we have integrated immersive storytelling into our tourism programs, resulting in the daily number of visits to our tourist site exceeding 8,000,” added Zhang Binquan.

According to representatives of several Red Tourism destinations, this year's National Day travel was characterized by family trips, independent car tours, and an increase in young tourists. Families traveling by car made up the majority, while interest among young tourists continued to grow.

"For us, red tourism isn't just a travel choice. It's a bridge connecting the past with the present and a way to convey the spirit of resilience," Sun Yan concluded.
