Respected Comrade Kim Jong Un Praised as Peerlessly Great Man

Pyongyang, July 18 (KCNA) -- Ten years have passed since the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un was awarded the title of the DPRK Marshal from the Korean people on July 17, Juche 101(2012).

The last ten years are a glorious period in which the dignity and the national power of the DPRK have been put on the highest ground and the ideal and dream of the Korean people translated into reality under the leadership of Kim Jong Un.

The period to be recorded in history would be unthinkable without the great devotion and effort of the respected General Secretary Kim Jong Un who has ushered in a golden age in the development of the revolutionary armed forces and demonstrated before the world the dignity and might of the DPRK, the powerful state.

The respected General Secretary has devoted his all to bolstering up the national power while ceaselessly inspecting military units with his steadfast will that the independent dignity of the nation and the victory of socialism are guaranteed by the matchless armed forces.

He has led the entire army make its training more intensive as anti-Japanese guerrillas did on Mt Paektu in order to prepare all the service personnel to be stalwart fighters who are possessed of invincible Kim Il Sung's and Kim Jong Il's strategy and tactics, daring attack mode and perfect actual war capability, and gave ever-victorious stratagem while personally guiding historic meetings.

Thanks to his wise leadership, our revolutionary armed forces have developed into the invincible ones capable of smashing any enemies, the strongest national defence power provided and, thereby, the dignity and prestige of the DPRK have been put on the highest ground.

In this period, he has made a journey of the devoted service for the people's well-being, saying that one should pluck even a star and bring a flower into bloom even on a rock if this is desired by the people who are the best in the world.

Thanks to his field guidance, socialist fairylands have been built, wealth for the people created and, thereby, happy laughter of the people reverberated across the whole country.

Today, the Korean people are turning out as one in the implementation of the decisions made at the 5th Plenary Meeting of the 8th Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea, being convinced of the tomorrow of the country which will prosper under the leadership of the respected General Secretary. -0-
