Kim Il Sung founded the immortal Juche idea in the early period of his revolutionary activities.

He devoted all his life to the prosperity of the country and the happiness of the people and performed undying exploits for carrying out the socialist cause.

We highly praise him for struggling to defend Korean socialism from the offensive of imperialism.

His life was an encyclopedic one for the development of the human cause of independence.

We highly praise him for making sure that socialist policies such as the free medical care and free education were enforced and the monumental edifices for the happiness of the people built.

He made a great contribution to the cause of socialism.

His exploits will always be remembered by the Korean people and progressive mankind.
