That's why the world progressives have praised him as the great master of ideology and theory.

A Brazilian personage said that thanks to Kim Jong Il's activities, the international situation had turned in favor of the peoples desirous of independence after the end of the Cold War.

The Lao newspaper Pasason in an article titled "Undying Feats Performed for the Cause of Global Independence" said:

Kim Jong Il clearly indicated the way for accomplishing the cause of global independence. He made public "On the Juche Idea" and many other famous works to systematize the Juche idea, the guiding idea for the cause of independence, in an all-round way and develop it in depth.

This helped the world progressives have a powerful ideo-theoretical weapon for their struggle to build an independent and peaceful, new world free from domination, subjugation and aggression and war.

The chairman of the Group for the Study of the Juche Idea of University of Kinshasa in Democratic Congo said that Kim Jong Il's celebrated works are a precious legacy for mankind and his great idea and feats would be handed down through generations.

The Bangladesh-Korea Friendship and Solidarity Committee in a bulletin titled "Legacy of Leader Kim Jong Il" said:

Leader Kim Jong Il defined the Juche idea, the Songun (military-first) idea as the eternal guiding idea of the DPRK and the era of independence.

This ideo-theoretical wealth provided by him is the most precious legacy for the Korean people and other world progressives.
