I extend full support to the appeal adopted at the 18th seminar of world political parties on the building of a new society, he said, and went on:

President Kim Il Sung performed immortal exploits on behalf of the era and history, holding high the banner of independence.

The President, who embarked on the road of the struggle for the country and its people in his early years, founded the Juche idea clarifying that a man is the master of his destiny and is capable of hewing out his destiny.

He extended sincere support and encouragement to the people of Benin and other African countries in their struggle for national liberation and the building of a new society.

Leader Kim Jong Il performed great exploits guaranteeing the eternal foundation and rosy future of socialist Korea.

The Juche idea, the Songun idea is shining as Kimilsungism-Kimjongilism, the great guiding idea in the era of independence.

The immortal exploits performed by Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il on behalf of the era and history will always be remembered by progressive mankind.

I and all the members of the Socialist Party of Benin affirm that we will significantly organize political and cultural events on the occasions of the 20th anniversary of the demise of Kim Il Sung and the 3rd anniversary of demise of Kim Jong Il.
