Kim Jong Il has developed in depth the Juche idea founded by President Kim Il Sung on the basis of a comprehensive and profound study of the history of the Korean people's struggle and strategy and tactics of the revolution, the statement noted, and continued:

Kim Jong Il has pursued the Songun politics based on the Juche idea, protecting the dignity and sovereignty of socialist Korea and achieving the unshakable unity and cohesion between the Party and the masses.

The WPK has developed into a single-minded united party under his leadership.

The WPK's political philosophy of believing in the people as in Heaven helped the Korean people overcome difficulties facing all fronts of the revolution and construction.

The truth about the smear campaign being staged by the south Korean authorities against the DPRK, linking it with the case of the warship "Cheonan" sinking, is bound to be probed and the socialist cause accomplished in Kim Il Sung's Korea.

The heroic struggle of the WPK and the Korean people led by

Kim Jong Il is sure to triumph.
