Talk:Man Gyong Bong 92

Untitled

Was it the allegations or the missile parts which were made by the North Korean defector? It's not clear. Earldelawarr (talk) 20:33, 27 January 2012 (UTC)

Name - meaning

I realise that it is the name of a hill near Pyongyang, but what does Man Gyong Bong (만경봉) mean? Davidships (talk) 19:39, 29 September 2023 (UTC)

Wrong ship?

The section about tourism implementation should be removed or at least rewritten. It seems there has been a mix-up regarding which ship was converted into a cruise liner for the 2011 trial run. The New York Times article mentions the ship in question being 40 years old, which would match the original Man Gyong Bong but not Man Gyong Bong 92, which was about 20 years old at the time. Washington Times mentions it being a Japanese-built ship and talks about a plaque commemorating Kim Il-sung's visit to the ship in 1972, 20 years before Man Gyong Bong 92 was built. Plus, the ship pictured in both articles doesn't look like the 92 to me. One picture even shows the name on the ship's side being Man Gyong Bong without the 92.

Yes, I agree that the two vessels have become intertwined. As they are both part of a single overall story. I suggest that the material concerning the earlier vessel is gathered together in a new subsection of "Background", and not removed. Davidships (talk) 14:38, 30 November 2023 (UTC)
