The youth organization of the Popular Liberation Movement of Angola said this in a statement on May 28.

The statement noted that Kim Jong Il's start of work at the Central Committee of the WPK on June 19, 1964 was of great significance in the history of the WPK. It went on:

He developed the Juche idea, the Songun idea, into the guiding idea in the era of independence and fully embodied it in all fields of the revolution and construction, turning the WPK into the ever-victorious party.

Under the leadership of the WPK, the Korean people built a socialist power, resolutely smashing the imperialists' moves to stifle the DPRK.
