SEOUL, Jan 1 Asia Pulse - North Korean leader Kim Jong-il has sent a New Year message to Chinese President Hu Jintao expressing hopes for closer ties between the traditional allies, Pyongyang's state media reported Thursday.

"2009, which will mark the 60th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between the DPRK and the PRC, is a significant year which the peoples of the two countries agreed to celebrate as a 'year of the DPRK-China friendship," Kim said in the message, using the short form for the two nations' official names.

He added that Pyongyang-Beijing ties would grow stronger thanks to the efforts of the two sides in the new year.
