Kim Jong Il nominated as candidate for deputy to 11th SPA

KCNA

    Pyongyang, July 1 (KCNA) - General Secretary Kim Jong Il was nominated by KPA servicemen as a candidate for a deputy to the 11th Supreme People's Assembly. An electorate meeting of constituency no. 649 was held at Jonsung Square here today to recommend him for the candidacy for a deputy to the 11th SPA of the DPRK with tens of thousands of soldier voters attending.
    Jo Myong Rok, director of the KPA General Political Department, in his report said that the shining annals of the DPRK are associated with Kim Jong Il's immortal exploits as he has firmly defended President Kim Il Sung's idea of nation-building and his exploits performed in it, successfully carried forward and developed them and worked heart and soul for the eternal prosperity of the republic.
    He continued:
    Kim Jong Il set up the state political system with main emphasis on national defence by applying the unique Songun idea, thus providing a sure guarantee for the DPRK to stand firm and victoriously advance despite whatever upheavals. He has wisely led the work to enhance the function and role of the people's government as required by the developing revolution, thus helping it creditably discharge its honorable mission as a protector of the sovereign rights of the popular masses, the organizer of their creative ingenuity and a master responsible for their living.
    The DPRK is demonstrating its might as an invincible power strong in ideology, politics and military capability and greatly encourages the world revolutionary people in their struggle for sovereignty, independence and socialism, leading the u.s. styling itself the world's "only superpower" by its nose.
    This is the shining fruition of his outstanding political ability and tested and experienced leadership.
    The reporter courteously proposed to nominate Kim Jong Il as a candidate for a deputy to the 11th SPA of the DPRK at constituency no. 649, representing the unanimous desire and ardent wishes of all the voters and servicepersons.
    Speakers including Kim Il Chol, Minister of the People's Armed Forces, fully supported and approved his proposal, evincing their firm resolution to devotedly defend the headquarters of the revolution and struggle for the security and prosperity of the socialist motherland, holding Kim Jong Il in high esteem.
    Jo proudly declared that Kim Jong Il was nominated as a candidate for a deputy to the SPA at constituency no.649 for the election of deputies to the 11th SPA with an absolute support and approval in reflection of the unanimous desire of all voters.
    That moment the square shook with welcome music and the rousing cheers "hurrah" of the servicepersons.
    A letter to Kim Jong Il was adopted there.
    In the letter the participants wholeheartedly hoped that he would accept this ardent request reflecting the unanimous desire of all the servicepersons and people.
    They vowed to firmly arm themselves with the WPK's Juche-oriented view on war and anti-imperialist class consciousness, increase the combat power and combat readiness of the people's army in every way as required by the tense situation reminiscent of an eve of a war and mercilessly wipe out the U.S. imperialists, if they ignite another war on this land, and thus accomplish the historic cause of national reunification without fail.
