Kim Il Sung Praised
Pyongyang, May 22 (KCNA) -- Kembo Campbell Dugishmohadi, head of the Zimbabwean government delegation who visited the DPRK, praised President Kim Il Sung as the greatest man in the world.

During his stay in the DPRK, he keenly felt the greatness of the President, he said, and went on:

Born in a house with low straw-thatched roof in Mangyongdae, the President acquired personality of a great man and an indomitable fighter while receiving the revolutionary education from his parents in his childhood.

He is the savior of national resurrection and a legendary hero as he liberated the country by leading the arduous anti-Japanese revolutionary struggle to victory and turned the DPRK into a socialist power independent in politics, self-supporting in the economy and self-reliant in national defence.

The Korean people with the history of 5,000 years could demonstrate their dignity as the great people as they had the President as founder of the country.

His revolutionary history is the brilliant history that propelled the cause of global independence.

The President, possessed of far-sighted wisdom, made great contributions to the human cause of independence by founding the immortal Juche idea.

Mankind looks up to socialist Korea where the Juche idea has been successfully applied as a beacon of hope.

The Korean people and many foreigners are ceaselessly visiting the Kumsusan Memorial Palace where the President lies in state and his native home in Mangyongdae. This clearly shows how deep all people's reverence for him is. The exploits performed by him for the times and humankind will shine forever.
