Memorial Commission for President KIM IL SUNG and Comrade KIM JONG IL

AS far as I know, the great leader of the Korean people and immortal President KIM IL SUNG, the peerlessly great leader of the world, who in his lifetime liberated Korea from Japanese military occupation, created Juche Idea for the liberation of the humanity, created socialist country named Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK), defeated imperialist led 1950-53 Korean war under his brilliant commandership and made DPRK a prosperous and strong socialist nation in the world. No other leader in the world has done such miracles in their lifetime.

That is why we call President KIM IL SUNG - a peerlessly great man of the world, not only of Mt. Paektu.

Comrade KIM JONG IL, great leader and immortal General Secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and creator of revolutionary Songun Policy to defend the sovereignty, dignity and independence of Korea against the imperialist manurers to stifle the dear socialism of the Korean people, and the great anti-Japanese guerilla fighter Mother KIM JONG SUK who became the comrade-in-arms of great leader President KIM IL SUNG and saved his life for many times in the armed struggle against the Japanese encroachers are the great persons of Mt. Paektu.

Now entire Korean people as well as the progressive and peace-loving people of the world extend their highest respects and warmest gratitude to the great leaders President KIM IL SUNG and Comrade KIM JONG IL, founder and builders of the DPRK, the glorious fatherland, and Mother KIM JONG SUK, with their burning strength of mind to successfully accomplish the cause of building the socialist powerful country and to achieve the final victory of the Juche and Songun cause under the brilliant and far-sighted leadership of the glorious Workers' Party of Korea.

The foundation of the DPRK in the 9th of September, 1948 was the outstanding great event which opened up a new era of building a legitimate independent sovereign state, the people's country for the first time in the 5000-year-long national history. And it was the high-flying declaration of making known the starting of building the great powerful nation. For last 70 years long since its founding day, DPRK has created a world-startling legend of victory in the war and made speedy progress and epoch-making changes racing against time and thus, displaying its self-respect in eyes of the world being emerged as the Juche-oriented powerful state, the people-centered socialist country.

Over nine decades have passed since President KIM IL SUNG had formed the "Down-with-Imperialism Union" (DIU) on October 17, 1926. The formation of the DIU is of special importance in the modern history of Korea in that the Workers' Party of Korea, the guiding force of the Korean society, traces its origin back to the formation of the DIU. Present program of the Workers' Party of Korea is based on that of the DIU, which set it as its immediate task to defeat Japanese imperialism and achieve Korea's liberation and independence and its final objective to build socialism and communism in Korea, and further, destroy all imperialism and build communism throughout the world. The WPK has strictly adhered to the principle of independence advanced by the DIU as the guiding principles for its party building and activities.

Herein lies the factor which enabled socialist Korea to have consistently traversed the road of independent development, displying its dignity as an independent power. The WPK has always kept above all the demands and interests of the country and the people in solving all problems, rejecting foreign domination and interference.DPR of Korea is a crystal of the outstanding ideas on nation building of the great leaders President KIM IL SUNG and Comrade KIM JONG IL as well as a crystal of feats performed by their perfect leaderships.

The great leader President KIM IL SUNG, who authored the immortal Juche idea had been consistently adhering to the principle of independent in ideology and policy, self-sufficient in economy and self-reliant in national defense throughout his revolutionary leadership. Thanks to his rare wisdom, iron-will and wise leadership, DPRK came into rise up as an independent socialist state within a short span of time. The patriotic exploits, performed by the President, of which he provided the everlasting foundation for prosperity and grandeur of the nation by setting the epochal examples in such all the fields as politics, military, economy and culture, shines brilliantly in the history of the DPR of Korea.

The great leader Comrade KIM JONG IL is a peerless great man who opened up the new chapter of building the mighty socialist state so as to strengthen the national power of the DPR of Korea immensely. The great leader Comrade KIM JONG IL formulated the ideas of the great leader President KIM IL SUNG as Kimilsungism, vigorously led the struggle for modeling the whole society on Kimilsungism and thus, making the Republic honorable of being the only country of single-minded unity which was established a monolithic ideology. He turned the Republic into the world military power and provided the strong spring-board for building an economic giant uplifting the banner of giving priority to armed forces during the forced arduous march faced with critical, unprecedented trials owing to the dreadful maneuvers to stifle the Republic by the imperialist allied forces-this is an extraordinary exploits of the great leader Comrade KIM JONG IL before the country and the people of the DPR of Korea.

As we observe today the patriotic legacy of the great leaders President KIM IL SUNG and Comrade KIM JONG IL is demonstrating its dignity and mightiness to the world as it has His Excellency Marshal KIM JONG UN, supreme leader of the Korean people, chairman of the Workers' Party of Korea in high admiration of the entire Korean people.

The idea of independence initiated by President KIM IL SUNG with the formation of the DIU was firmly maintained by General Secretary Comrade KIM JONG IL and has been invariably held fast to by His Excellency Marshal KIM JONG UN, supreme leader of the Korean people, chairman of the Workers' Party of Korea, chairman of the State Affairs Commission of the DPRK and the supreme commander of the Armed Forces of the DPR Korea.

It is a steadfast will of Supreme Leader Marshal KIM JONG UN to successfully accomplish the cause of building the socialist powerful country, the revolutionary cause of Juche by embodying the great ideas of Kimilsungism-Kimjongilism on nation-building.  The ideas and theories put  forth by Supreme Leader Marshal KIM JONG UN such as the one on applying the revolutionary line of independence and the people-first principle to nation-building and state activities and the one on exalting the our-state-first principle serve as a treasured sword of all victory in the struggle for hastening the building of the socialist powerful state in his spirit of "Do-or Die" which was already unfolded in the blueprint of building a powerful socialist country in the Seventh Congress of the WPK held in May 2016.

It is all Korean people's firm faith that the DPRK: Ever victorious with Independence will surely be built more excellently as the one of independence which anyone could not dare to provoke, the one in which the dreams of the people come into being realized in a comprehensive degree and the great one of marching forward the world displaying its never-ending potentials of development.

The Korean people will surely achieve victory in building a fully independent society ideal for the humankind by continuously maintaining the line of independence in the revolution and construction under the brilliant leadership of the Workers' Party of Korea, which has inherited the program of the Down with Imperialism Union.
