Kim Il Sung Remembered by Syrian Figure
Pyongyang, July 24 (KCNA) -- Saber Ballul, head of a chair of the Political Faculty of the University of Damascus in Syria, made public a statement on July 8, the 18th anniversary of the demise of President Kim Il Sung.

He said the President is deeply remembered by the progressives in every July as he was an ideological and theoretical genius who founded the Juche idea, Songun idea.

The Juche idea and Songun idea serve as the great guiding ideas indicating the bright way for the Korean people and the progressives of the world, he said, and went on:

The President was not only a benevolent father of the people who turned Korea into a Juche land of bliss under socialism but a great leader who honored the 20th century as the independent one by sagaciously leading the Korean revolution and global independence.

As there is the dear respected Kim Jong Un who is carrying forward the revolutionary cause of the President and leader Kim Jong Il generation after generation, the future of the DPRK will be brighter.

We look up to Juche Korea as the beacon of hope, he said, wishing the Korean people only victory under the leadership of Kim Jong Un.
