Celebrating the founding anniversary of the great Workers' Party of Korea which has vigorously led the grand drive for creation for comprehensive national rejuvenation, regarding “The people are God” as its basic programme and an immutable mode of existence, all Party members and other people and service personnel across the country recollected the undying feats performed by President Kim Il Sung and Chairman Kim Jong Il for the Juche-based party building.

Members of the Party central leadership body including Kim Tok Hun, Choe Ryong Hae and Ri Pyong Chol, members of the Presidium of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the WPK, and officials of the Party Central Committee visited the supreme temple of Juche on October 10 to mark the 79th founding anniversary of the WPK.

They entered the Kumsusan Palace of the Sun, bearing in mind that the longest history of the WPK as a ruling party is shining thanks to the immortal leadership of the peerlessly great men who put it forward as the noble ideal of party founding to build a powerful vanguard of the revolution that takes responsibility for the destiny of the working people and the country to the last and guides them to communism and wisely led the WPK to win victory after victory by faithfully carrying forward its revolutionary character and original features.

A flower basket in the name of the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un was laid before the statues of President Kim Il Sung and Chairman Kim Jong Il.

Baskets of flowers in the name of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea, the State Affairs Commission of the DPRK, the Standing Committee of the Supreme People's Assembly of the DPRK and the Cabinet of the DPRK were laid before the statues.

The participants paid high tribute to the President and the Chairman at their statues.

At the halls of immortality where the President and the Chairman are preserved in their lifetime appearance, they made deep bows to them praying for their eternal life with the firm will to perfectly apply the ideal and spirit of party founding by thoroughly implementing the five-point line of party building in the new era set forth by the great Party Central Committee and thus carry forward the lifeline and ever-victorious leadership ability of the WPK through all generations of the revolution.
