Pyongyang, January 14 (KCNA) -- Upon hearing the news that General Secretary Kim Jong Il will be laid in state at the Kumsusan Memorial Palace, the hearts of all the Korean people are filled with the pledge to carry to completion the revolutionary cause of Juche generation after generation, remaining loyal to the dear respected Kim Jong Un identical to Kim Jong Il.

Kim Tok Hun, official of the Jagang Provincial People's Committee, recollected with deep emotion the honorable days in which he grew up, leading a worthwhile life under the care of the leader.

It was under his care that he became an official in charge of people's living in a province.

He said:

The people can never forget the loving care and painstaking efforts of Kim Jong Il who visited soldiers of the People's Army by crossing "Chol Pass" despite snow and took care of the people's living as their real father would do, calling at factories and walking rural roads early morning.

I will devote myself to improving the living standard of the people of Jagang Province whom the leader loved so much, true to his lifetime intention.

Jong Nam Ho, officer of the Korean People's Army, said:

We are under Supreme Commander Kim Jong Un, another commander of Mt. Paektu.

We will single-mindedly uphold the leadership of the dear respected Kim Jong Un who represents the destiny of Kim Il Sung's nation and is the sun, and unite close around him and thus build a thriving socialist nation on this land without fail.

Only eternal happiness and prosperity will be in store for the DPRK under the blessings of Kumsusan.
