At the ceremony the president of the publishing house said:

Leader Kim Jong Il was a peerless patriot who performed the undying feats to be recorded forever in history of the DPRK by loving the country and people more ardently than anyone and devoting his whole life to the prosperity of the country and happiness of the people.

The beloved country and people were always cherished deep in his mind.
