Last year 2010 was a year of a great leap forward when signal changes took place to be specially recorded in the history of the country and which witnessed the advent of a wonderful era in which all the ideals of the people became realities under your outstanding and energetic leadership.

The Conference of the Workers' Party of Korea reelected you as its general secretary. This was an expression of the firm will of all the service personnel and people to accomplish the revolutionary cause of Juche that started in Mt. Paektu.

You paid two rounds of historic unofficial visit to the People's Republic of China last year amid the keen attention of the world, boosting the traditional DPRK-China friendship at a new high level and shaking the world political structure. Whenever we watched your majestic image, we were moved to tears, overcome with high national pride and self-respect.
