He said that Generalissimo Kim Jong Il's demise was a great loss not only to the Korean people but to the progressive humankind.

He went on:

The DPRK could emerge a powerful fortress of independence against imperialism and play a pioneer's role in the struggle for defending the world peace and security thanks to the Songun politics pursued by Kim Jong Il.

The DPRK has grown stronger as it is led by Marshal Kim Jong Un, peerlessly brilliant Songun commander.

Kim Jong Un is steering the struggle for building a thriving nation, creditably carrying forward the idea and cause of Generalissimos Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il.

The DPRK is a country of single-minded unity.

The history of single-minded unity provided by the Generalissimos is being successfully carried forward by Kim Jong Un.

We are sure that the DPRK's single-minded unity will result in working the world-startling great miracles.

We pay high tribute to Kim Jong Il and pray for his eternal life.
