Pyongyang, July 7 (KCNA) -- Eleven years have passed since President Kim Il Sung demised in July. As the years go by, the Korean people have sorely missed the President, who dedicated his all to the sacred cause for the people to the last moments of his life since he started his revolutionary activities in his teens.
He, as usual, was engrossed in work from the dawn of July 7, Juche 83 (1994), a day before his demise.
That day, his aides recommended him even a few minutes of walking, but he examined a document concerning the country's reunification till late at night.
After finishing the document, he put his autograph "Kim Il Sung. July 7, 1994" on it. And he said with satisfaction that the reunification of the country would be the greatest gift he could give to the people and that a full preparation should be made to greet the great event of national reunification.
On July 6 he convened a consultative meeting of senior officials in the economic sector and made an important speech on the economic construction of the country.
In the last days of his life, the President gave field guidance to a co-op farm in Onchon County, saying that it was a good rest for him to look round a factory or farm.
The President had found himself among the people throughout his life. Though he attained an advanced age, above 80, he continued his field guidance with a stick. When he met people, however, he had his stick left in the car, saying that they would feel sorry to see him using a stick.
The Korean people will always keep President Kim Il Sung in their minds as their eternal leader.
