The successful launch represents the greatest glory and humblest respect to Generalissimo Kim Jong Il, the sun of Juche and Songun who symbolizes the great Paektusan nation. It is also an exciting event promising greater victory and prosperity of Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il's Korea, says the editorial, and goes on:

The satellite is, indeed, a big wealth and a great creation of Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il's nation as it demonstrated before the world the dignity and honor of the Korean people.

The successful launch of the satellite marked a significant event that displayed in the world eyes the general national power of Songun Korea and heralded the victory of the Koreans' advance in another 100 year history of the Juche era.

It is also a proud fruition brought about by the strong sense of moral obligation of the Workers' Party of Korea and the army and people of the DPRK remaining true to the behests of leader Kim Jong Il, and a reflection of the will of the Korean people who regard that the DPRK has an inalienable right to use space and it should have its own invariable orbit in space, the editorial notes, adding:

The successful launch of the second version of satellite Kwangmyongsong-3 proved with added clarity the iron-truth that the DPRK does whatever it is determined to do.

It was a lifetime intention of Kim Jong Il to make the world look up to Kim Il Sung's Korea. Under the leadership of Kim Jong Il the DPRK ranked itself with dignity among those countries which produce, launch and possess satellites.

The second version of satellite Kwangmyongsong-3 is not just a product of science and technology. It is rather a brilliant result of the noble fidelity of the dear respected Marshal Kim Jong Un who inspired all the service personnel and people to display Kim Jong Il's patriotism and led them to turn out to carry out the behests of Kim Jong Il.

Saying the successful satellite launch conducted in the most transparent and fair manner vividly showed before the world how strong the independent spirit of the Korean people is, the editorial calls for making great innovation and upswing by following the fighting spirit and manner displayed by those who brought about such a proud event of putting the satellite into space.
