Korean Central News Agency of DPRK via Korea News Service (KNS)

    Pyongyang, February 16 (KCNA) -- Papers here today dedicate editorials to February 16, an auspicious holiday. Rodong Sinmun says that leader Kim Jong Il's history of revolutionary activities is the history of the great statesman and leader who has brought a bright prospect of the socialist cause in our era, weathering out the stern tempest of the revolution. It goes on:
    The history of the victory of Korean-style socialism built by President Kim Il Sung has been successfully carried forward by Kim Jong Il.
    It is thanks to his leadership that the army and people of the DPRK have always been optimistic about the future of Korean-style socialism despite so rigorous trials. He is a great guide who has indicated the road of the socialist cause in our era with his unique ideas and theories.
    He laid a solid foundation for the building of a great prosperous powerful nation and put the dignity and position of the country and the nation on the highest level despite stern ordeals baffling human imagination. This is the undying feat performed by him. Underscoring the need to carry forward the ever-victorious history of the Korean revolution and accomplish the cause of Korean style socialism true to the Songun leadership of the great headquarters of the revolution, the paper calls on all the servicepersons and people to repose undisputed trust in Kim Jong Il and devotedly protect the headquarters of the revolution.
    They should firmly trust and follow him only in any adversity with the iron faith and will that he represents their destiny and their country and socialism would be unthinkable without his leadership, it says, and continues: His Songun politics serves as a banner for winning the sure victory of Korean-style socialism.
    There is no other way for them than to apply the Songun political mode, regarding the Songun idea as guidelines. Songun means socialism and vice versa. It is necessary to intensify the drive to bring about a great Songun revolutionary surge in all fields of revolution and construction.
    The banner of Juche, the banner of socialism, will always remain a banner of revolution which we should hold aloft.
    Minju Joson calls on all the servicepersons and people to hold Kim Jong Il in high esteem with pure conscience, maintaining the firm stand that they know Kim Jong Il only as he represents the brain of the Korean revolution and is a central figure for the unity.
