The history has not known such a great man as Kim Jong Il, who defended socialism with his unique leadership and realized all desires of the people, holding high the red flag of revolution.

Kim Jong Il, with extraordinary wisdom, developed the Korean People's Army (KPA) into an invincible one and wisely guided all the people to carry forward the cause of Songun (military-first) revolution and the cause of the building of a thriving nation.

The KPA is taking the lead in upholding the leadership of the Workers' Party of Korea and the army and people have rallied closely around the party. The most advantageous socialist system and solid foundations of self-supporting national economy have been provided in the country.

All these are the eternal precious assets of the revolution he devoted his life to.

The Korean people will always remember the great exploits he performed in ensuring the continuity of the revolutionary cause of Juche, turning the DPRK into a political and ideological power and military power and glorifying Kim Il Sung's nation with his Songun leadership.

All the Korean servicepersons and people will continue to take the road of the Juche-oriented and Songun-based revolution, true to the behests of the leader, and defend and glorify his great feats.
