Kim Jong Un, general secretary of the Workers’ Party of Korea and president of the State Affairs of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, visited the bier of Kim Ki Nam, former secretary of the Central Committee of the WPK who is winner of the Order of Kim Il Sung and Order of Kim Jong Il and Labor Hero, at 02:00 of May 8 to express deep condolences over his death.
Accompanying him were members of the Presidium of the Political Bureau and secretaries of the Central Committee of the WPK.
Amid the playing of dirge, the hall was wrapped in sorrow over the loss of a veteran of our Party and the revolution, a prestigious theoretician and a prominent political activist who made great contributions to firmly defending and glorifying the revolutionary ideology and cause of Juche.
A wreath in the name of the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un was laid before the bier of the deceased.
Kim Jong Un paid silent tribute to Kim Ki Nam who made contributions to the sacred struggle for the development of the WPK, modeling the revolutionary ranks on the monolithic ideology and the victorious advance of the socialist cause with his paramount view on life, Party principle, high political and theoretical qualifications and spirit of devoted service to the country and its people.
He looked round the bier of Kim Ki Nam with bitter grief over the loss of a veteran revolutionary who, as a competent official in the Party’s ideological field, had remained boundlessly loyal to the cause of the WPK and devoted himself to consolidating the single-minded unity across the Party and society centred on the Party Central Committee in every way and to the Party’s ideological building and strengthening of its leadership ability till the last moment of his life.
He expressed deep sympathy to the bereaved family members and consoled them.
