North Korea official news agency mourns for Kim Jong Il

The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK)'s official news agency KCNA issued an article on Monday to mourn the death of DPRK top leader Kim Jong Il.

The DPRK is overcome with bitter sorrow at the demise of Kim Jong Il who had energetically worked day and night for prosperity of the country and the happiness of people all his life, the KCNA said in the article entitled "Kim Jong Il will always live" .

"Its army and people's loyalty and sense of obligation to him are now growing higher than ever before," the article said.

"They are resolutely rising up to change their sorrow into great strength and courage with the noble sense of moral obligation and immovable faith and will to hold Kim Jong Il in high esteem forever and glorify his feats for all ages," the article said.

Though the DPRK has suffered the great loss, the people are decisively rising up as they have Kim Jong Un, great successor to the revolutionary cause and prominent leader of the party and the army and people of the DPRK, the article stressed.

No force on earth can block the revolutionary advance of the DPRK party, army and people led by Kim Jong Un, the article added.

Kim Jong Il, general secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea (WPK), chairman of the DPRK National Defense Commission and supreme commander of the Korean People's Army (KPA), passed away from a great mental and physical strain at 08:30 on Dec.17 (2330 GMT Friday), on a train during a field guidance tour, the KCNA reported Monday.
