Walter,
Fair to say anywhere between the east coast of Africa to the South China Sea. Seems they've all had problems- Gulf of Siam, Straits of Malacca, Maldives, Sri Lanka and, obviously, the Horn of Africa south to Madagascar.
Arrrgh, matey! Hoist the Jolly Roger and let em' taste our steel, lads!
Again, gf0012's insights here would be particularly valuable. Alas, he's MIA these days. Bummer.
It's serious stuff out there. No place for pleasure yachts. Not without a few .50 cal stations onboard, that's for sure. That still may not be enough. I've heard of war-junks in the Gulf of Siam-heavily armed and faster than most on the water.
Wonder if we got a peek at the N. Korean manifest and cargo?
