N. Korean cargo-passenger ship arrives at Niigata port

NIIGATA, Japan - The Man Gyong Bong, a North Korean cargo-passenger vessel that sometimes travels across the Sea of Japan between Niigata and Wonsan, enters Niigata port on Nov. 25. It was the first time for the vessel to arrive at the port since Tokyo decided in late October to have five Japanese nationals, who were abducted to North Korea in 1978 and recently allowed home on a visit, remain in Japan.
