Kim Il Sung's Life Devoted for People

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

   Pyongyang, July 8 (KCNA) -- The Korean people are recollecting the whole life of President Kim Il Sung dedicated to the people with deep emotion and irresistible yearning for him.
    The President had continued on-the-spot guidance without interruption in his life for the happiness of the people, bearing deep in his mind the cherished theory that going deep among the people is just the same with taking a tonic and failing to do so is just the same with taking poison.
    Saying that he was very happy when he was among people, he kindly shook oil-stained hands of workers at factories and found his way to dangerous working sites where workers were on the job. He thus inspired them to labor feats.
    The President, the benevolent father of the people, transplanted rice seedlings in paddy fields along with peasants and taught them how to do farming, walking along ridges between rice-fields. He, who regarded the people as his teacher, carefully listened to what peasants and young primary school pupils said.
    One day in October, Juche 43 (1954), the President dropped in at a rural village on his way to on-the-spot guidance for improving the war-deteriorated living of the peasants.
    Being told by the chairman of the management board there that all the junior officials of the ri and tens of his family members and relatives were massacred during the war, the President stopped overnight with him to console him who would spend the long night alone without any kith and kin.
    It was when he conversed with peasants in a rural village on the shore of the West Sea right after the liberation of the country.
    He saw village people coughing owing to endemic disease. They got sick as they had taken the standing water as drinking water for a long time. The President initiated a waterway project to drag life-giving water to the shore of the West Sea. This was the Phyongnam Irrigation project.
    His revolutionary life is full of so many legends of human love.
    All the wealth of the country is associated with the great love of President Kim Il Sung. He is, indeed, the leader of the people.
