Pyongyang, December 7 (KCNA) -- In every December, the people in the DPRK feel the stronger yearning for Chairman Kim Jong Il who devoted all his life to the wellbeing of the people.

During his revolutionary lifetime, the Chairman visited more than 14 290 units across the country, traveling the long distance of 669 844 kilometers equivalent to going round the earth 17 times. He was on the ceaseless journey of field guidance even in Juche 100 (2011), the last year of his great life.

In January that year when the severest cold in sixty years hit the country, he started his field guidance of the year with a visit to a glass bottle production base. He visited at least 20 units in Pyongyang and Nampho cities and North Phyongan and South Hamgyong provinces in this month alone, traveling more than 1 000 kilometer-long distances.

From January to December, he gave endless field guidance to units of the Korean People's Army, industrial establishments, construction sites, cooperative farms, fruit farms, livestock farms, fish farms, scientific research institutes, literary art creation and dissemination bases, commercial service centers, pleasure parks, etc. In particular, he visited South Hamgyong Province which takes an important share in the country's economic development 9 times and even made a foreign tour.

In fact, his journey of field guidance made in 2011 is an epitome of the ceaseless march the peerless patriot had continued for more than half a century in disregard of weather conditions. -0-
