I've read that the authorities have tried several times to ban them, since relying on enemy products is ideologically rather embarrassing. Certainly recent photos of Pyongyang show many more Chinese and other non-Japanese marques on the road, including even Ford Transits and Focuses from China. I don't know if all the Japanese vehicles have really been purged, though. P.S. Before the economic collapse in the 1990s North Korea also imported new Japanese vehicles, which of course were LHD. -- Last edit: 2012-09-18 11:32:29
