Present there were officials of the confederation and compatriots.

The participants laid wreaths and bouquets before the portrait of Kim Jong Il before observing a moment's silence in the humblest reverence for him.

Pak Kyong Ho, chairman of the confederation, in his memorial address said that the compatriots like the people in the homeland have made every possible effort to make a contribution, though small, to national reunification and the prosperity of the country true to the behests of Kim Jong Il, missing the kind-hearted leader very much for 100 days since his demise.

World progressives have highly praised his idea and exploits even after his demise and this made us realize once again what a great man Kim Jong Il was, he said, adding:

His behests are being successfully implemented and he will be always alive in the hearts of all the Koreans and mankind thanks to the dear respected Kim Jong Un.
