He said in his statement that Kim Jong Il mastered the idea and theory of President Kim Il Sung and developed and enriched the Juche idea, Songun idea fathered by him.

He went on to say:

Kim Jong Il who has the great love for the people is devoting his whole life to them.

The flesh-and-blood relations forged between the leader and the masses represent the greatest of the feats performed by him.

The people of the DPRK are registering brilliant successes in the drive for building a thriving socialist nation, rallied close around him.

Thanks to the Songun policy enforced by him, the persistent moves of the imperialists to stifle the DPRK prove futile.

The people of the DPRK will fling open the gate to a thriving nation in the near future relying on the solid self-supporting national economy and the cutting-edge science and technology.
