Kim Jong Il started his Songun revolutionary leadership by providing field guidance to the Seoul Ryu Kyong Su 105 Guards Tank Division of the Korean People's Army on August 25, 1960, he noted and went on:

The Songun politics is a political mode of regarding military affairs as the most important of the state affairs and defending the country, the revolution and socialism and energetically pushing forward the overall socialist construction in reliance upon the revolutionary traits and militancy of the KPA.

Thanks to the Songun revolutionary leadership of Kim Jong Il the politico-ideological and military positions of the Korean revolution have grown as firm as an iron-wall, the single-minded unity of all members of the society has been further cemented, international solidarity with the DPRK has been daily boosted and the DPRK's relations with other countries have rapidly gained in scope and strength.

The recent anti-DPRK confrontation rackets of the hostile forces including the U.S. imperialists and the south Korean group of traitors proved to be totally bankrupt in face of the might of Songun and the dignity of Songun Korea was fully demonstrated.

The revolutionary parties and the progressives of the world aspiring after socialism are waging a dynamic struggle, seeing the victory of socialism in the Songun politics pursued by Kim Jong Il.

Only victory and glory will always be in store for the Workers' Party of Korea, the army and people of the DPRK advancing under the Songun leadership of Kim Jong Il.
