Ferrari Mailing List: Re: KOREA---no Ferrari content

[Doug and Terri Anderson (dnt]

Interesting Dale – nothing like a first person expertise to set the tone.  So I gather it is easier to see NK from China than to get into NK? 

 

China seems to be more willing to accept a different form of economic experience. 

 

I was at our local dealer, The Auto Gallery, in Los Angeles and the sales guys were complaining about their Maranello allotment – down from their 10 last year – India got 2 and China got 4 and we get a stinkin’ 4.

 

My my

 

Thanks for the insight.

Hi Listers

          We have a residence at Benxi City

near Dandong in China at the Yalu River bridge

to North Korea. Dandong has excellent seafood

restaurants overlooking the river and NK.

You can even take a motorboat tour along the

river about 10 feet from the NK shore. The

occassional soldier just waves. I have been

told you can visit NK but the USA people will

holler if your passport gets stamped. Lots of

Chinese cross daily for business or entertainment

events. A few Koreans shop in Dandong or sell

stuff to tourists. In spite of having a museum

devoted to the Korean War, all but one person

I met was polite and he was not from the area.

So the NK area isn't that bad; at least on the

China side of the Yalu. The Chinese roads are

great Ferrari territory too outside of towns

            Regards
