Kim Jong Un,
General Secretary of the Workers’ Party of Korea and President of the
State Affairs of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, visited the
Patriotic Martyrs Cemetery in Sinmi-ri on May 18 on the occasion of the
third anniversary of the demise of Hyon Chol Hae who was a prominent
military and political activist of our state.
The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un
laid a flower before his grave, recalling the memory of the
revolutionary comrade-in-arms who devoted himself to the glorious
struggle for accomplishing the revolutionary cause of Juche with genuine
communist traits, noble human feeling, wide-ranging knowledge and
unyielding execution abilities.
He paid silent tribute to the
memory of Hyon Chol Hae, a true son of the DPRK and a model of steadfast
revolutionaries and patriots.
Recalling him, Kim Jong Un said:
“Still vivid in my memory is Comrade Hyon Chol Hae, who was always with the great General Kim Jong Il.
He was the shadow of the General. He remains in all our memories as a
model military and political official, highly principled and outstanding
in political abilities and organizational skills, and as a paragon of
true human, always unceremonious and easy, unaffected, steadfast and
upright. He will live forever in our minds, always reminding us of the
General’s era and encouraging us in our sacred struggle for a great
victory.”
He prayed the noble spirit and distinguished feats of
Hyon Chol Hae, who remained steadfastly loyal to the Party and the
revolution all his life, would shine forever on the highest platform of
honour and dignity.
Before the monument to martyrs at the cemetery
he paid high tribute to the martyrs who devoted their precious lives to
the eternal prosperity and future of the country.
