Pyongyang, February 14 (KCNA) -- Jang Jae On, chairman of the Central Committee of the DPRK Red Cross Society, Friday morning sent a telephone message to the president of the South Korean Red Cross informing him of the north side's decision to take a special measure of allowing South Koreans to use the recently opened temporary road along the east coast to come to the area of Mt. Kumgang for the 6th reunion of separated families and relatives.

We have the pleasure to inform your side of our special measure of allowing separated families and relatives of your side to use the temporary road along the east coast for the 6th reunion of those families and relatives at Mt. Kumgang resort.
Recognizing the fact that this measure carries weighty significance in view of compatriotism, humanitarianism and inter-Korean cooperation, we express the expectation that the 6th reunion of separated families and relatives would positively contribute to promoting reconciliation and unity between the north and the south of Korea and reinforcing the idea and will of "our nation itself".
