He said that Kim Jong Il performed immortal exploits in carrying out the human cause of independence, possessed of matchlessly outstanding idea and leadership ability. He went on:

Kim Jong Il smashed the imperialists' moves to stifle the DPRK by pursuing the original Songun politics and firmly defended socialism in the DPRK and peace and security of the world.

The Korean people have remarkably bolstered up the capability for self-defence and had access to powerful nuclear deterrence under the banner of Songun.

Kim Jong Il channeled great efforts into the development of relations with the countries desirous of independence and put strong spurs to the global cause of independence through energetic external activities for building a new world guided by the idea of independence, peace and friendship.

He was a great man who made a distinguished contribution to carrying out the cause of independence against imperialism.

His exploits performed in the global cause of independence will always be remembered by progressive mankind.
