The acting secretary of the Yangon Regional Committee of the Union Solidarity and Development Party of Myanmar said:

H.E. Kim Jong Il firmly defended the sovereignty and dignity of the country by smashing the imperialists' moves to stifle it through his Songun revolutionary leadership.

He was the great leader who put the single-minded unity of the whole society onto a higher stage and turned the DPRK into an invincible political and military power.

We extend full support and solidarity to the Workers' Party of Korea and the Korean people in their struggle for defending the national sovereignty and dignity and building an economic power.

We are convinced that the Korean people would certainly realize the behests of the great Generalissimos Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il.

Speakers at an event in Nigeria said that the immortal exploits of Kim Jong Il would shine long in the history.

Speakers in an event in Uganda highly praised Kim Jong Il as an outstanding leader and peerless elder statesman who devoted his all to the accomplishment of the socialist cause and the global cause of independence.
