It will remain forever as an example to us, to revolutionary communists of all the word, the awareness of their lives in sacrifice to others, of dignity to popular masses in socialist construction and for liberation struggles in countries under colonial imperialist occupation. 

  His life is shining of Juche Idea victory and will stay forever. Staying forever, like his unique character in eternal memory, memory of the greatest and most eminent figures, the great leader comrade KIM JONG IL had defended socialism all his life and developed the Juche idea . As a youth he had played an active part in leading the Youth League in the DPRK . He later developed great theories on building socialism and put them into practice.

As a school  student and later as a university student he participated in the reconstruction of Pyongyang following the devastation caused by the US during the Korean War and later in new construction projects to build up Pyongyang better . He also worked  at a textile machinery factory at lathe no 26. Thus comrade Kim Jong Il was a true people's leader , always with the people sharing both hardship and joy with them. Often comrade Kim Jong Il did not celebrate his own birthday and dressed in an old parka….

Comrade Kim Jong Il  made sure that the DPRK continued firmly along the road of Juche charted by comrade Kim Il Sung  by  upholding  the banner of Juche  further supplemented it with the Songun idea and Songun politics  the treasured sword for defending independence.
