BEIJING: A hijacked Chinese bulk carrier and 25 Chinese crew members
aboard were successfully rescued at 3 a.m. on December 28, according to Chinese
Marine Search and Rescue Center.

to go close to relevant dangerous sea areas and take precaution measures so as
to avoid occurrence of incident.
China's Ministry of Transport again demands Chinese shipping companies
and their vessels and crew to strengthen self-protective measures in an effort
to prevent hijack by pirates.
