On October 5, Juche 84(1995) Chairman Kim Jong Il gave field guidance to the Monument to Party Founding which was ready for unveiling.

The huge granite platform symbolizes the history of the Workers’ Party of Korea rooted in the “Down-with-Imperialism Union”; the imposing tower soars high up from the platform; the hammer, sickle and brush represent the composition of WPK – workers, peasants and intellectuals; and the large circular belt implies the single-hearted unity of the leader, the Party and the popular masses.

Looking at the majestic Monument of Party Founding, Chairman Kim Jong Il highly appreciated the wonderful appearance of the monument.

After a long look at the monument, he earnestly said that he had approved the draft plan of the monument on July 7 last year, and that it was a great pity that he had been unable to show it to President Kim Il Sung.

His voice was husky as the monument overwhelmed him with the severe pain of having lost President Kim Il Sung and unquenchable yearning for him.

How greater would have been the pleasure of Chairman Kim Jong Il if he could have looked back on the glorious 50-year-long history of the Workers’ Party of Korea together with its founder President Kim Il Sung!

Chairman Kim Jong Il felt so sorrow to be unable to show the monument to President Kim Il Sung that he recollected the time when he had approved its draft plan.

Looking around the monument for a long time, Chairman Kim Jong Il gave detailed instructions how to spruce up the monument and its surroundings.

Then, he said: The Monument to Party Founding is a grand edifice which can be created only by the Workers’ Party of Korea and the Korean people who cherish the rock-firm conviction and indomitable will to consummate the revolutionary cause of the leader who founded the Party. It is the symbol of the Workers’ Party of Korea, the great Kim Il Sung’s Party which fights for the revolutionary cause of Juche and the cause of humanity for independence, and that of the single-hearted unity of our society in which all people are firmly united in one mind and will behind the Party and the leader. It will demonstrate the dignity and honor of Kim Il Sung’s nation to the whole world forever as a witness to the brilliant history of the Workers’ Party of Korea recorded with victory and honor and its undying exploits.

The Monument to Party Founding is the symbol of the Party and single-hearted unity!

Cherishing the meaningful teaching of Chairman Kim Jong Il deep in their hearts, the officials made a firm determination to remain boundlessly faithful to the leadership of the Party, united single-heartedly behind the great Party.
