And he saw to it that the socialist constitution embodying the idea and principle of the Songun revolution was adopted and a new state machinery with the NDC as its pivot established so that all the state affairs could be dealt with on the principle of giving priority to the military affairs.
With faith that the dignity of the country and nation and the victory of the revolution are ensured by the arms of the revolution, he had ceaselessly visited frontline military posts and defence industry bases to bolster up the military capability for self-defence.
Thanks to his continued field guidance to all parts of the country, the flames of the industrial revolution in the new century and the great revolutionary upswing flared up and eye-opening events were witnessed on all fronts for improving the people's livelihood and building an economic power.
The popular policies enforced without interruption in the most difficult times and the edifices for people's wellbeing built in different parts of the country are all associated with his noble view on the people.
So, the 5th Session of the 12th Supreme People's Assembly in April Juche 101 (2012) acclaimed Kim Jong Il as the eternal NDC chairman of the DPRK in reflection of all the people's ardent wish and desire.
