The head of an office of the Defense Ministry of Vietnam said at the film show: As it held Kim Jong Il in high esteem as its supreme commander the Korean People's Army developed into matchless revolutionary armed forces. I was deeply moved by the fact that Supreme Commander Kim Jong Un visited a women's coastal artillery company in August to learn in detail about its soldiers' training and their living and had photos taken with all of its soldiers. The chairman of the Kuwaiti Committee for Remembering Generalissimo Kim Jong Il said at the remembrance meeting: Kim Jong Il performed undying exploits while triumphantly leading the Korean revolution for half a century. The DPRK is now increasing its might under the wise leadership of Marshal Kim Jong Un. The desire of Kim Jong Il will surely come true as long as the DPRK is under the leadership of Kim Jong Un.
