Filed under: Russia

Well now, here is something that you simply do not see every day of the week.

North Korea has a website.

That website has a forum.

Here is one of the forum posts:

Pyongyang, February 8 (KCNA) -- General Secretary Kim Jong Il was awarded "Dmitri Donskoi" Order Class 1 by the Russian Academy of Security, Military and Legal Affairs on the occasion of his birthday. This highest order would be conferred only on extraordinary military activists. A ceremony of awarding the order took place at the DPRK embassy in Moscow on Feb. 5. The order and its certificate and belt were conveyed to the DPRK ambassador by the president of the academy.

Written on the certificate are the following letters: "'Dmitri Donskoi' Order is awarded to Comrade Kim Jong Il, general secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea, chairman of the DPRK National Defence Commission and supreme commander of the Korean People's Army, in recognition of his distinguished contribution to the strengthening of cooperation between the DPRK and the Russian Federation and great personal devotion to ensuring the global peace. President V. Shevchenko. The February 5, 2008, decision of the Presidium of the National Committee for Social Commendation. Order No. 008. Moscow ."

Speeches were made at the ceremony. The president of the academy said that it is due appraisal of Kim Jong Il's immortal exploits for the development of the Russia-DPRK relations and global peace and an expression of deep respect for him to award the order to him in the wake of the conferment of the "Petr the Great" Order Class 1 and the titles of academician and professor of the academy in Pyongyang in 2003. All these orders and honorary titles were awarded by the academy under the direct concern of President Putin, he said, adding that figure 8 in the number of the order certificate means infinity and it represents the fact that Kim Jong Il would always remain the great leader of the Korean people and the outstanding statesman of the world. Dmitri Yazov, former defence minister of the Soviet Union, said that there is no such supreme commander in the world as Kim Jong Il who always takes deep care of the servicepersons' living and visits the units on the forefront during his ceaseless inspection of the front.

Isn't that special?
