This report on the Hungdogi-dong Port Complex is one of a continuing
series by NPIC on North Korean ports and naval installations. The
Hungdogi-dong (Hungnam) port facilities serve the industrial complexes of
Hungnam and Hamhung. Capab:!_e of accommodating large oceangoing cargo
vessels, Hungdogi-dong appears to be second only to Chongjin in cargo
handling capacity on the east coast of North Korea. No identifiable naval
installation can be identified in the Hungdogi-dong Port Complex. A small
port facility, Chakto-dong, is located SE of Hungnam.
