LUANDA -- Chinese diplomats Thursday visited the Chinese sailors rescued from a South Korean fishing boat, which sank in the Angola water territory.

Ding Shan, a counselor of the Chinese embassy to Angola, presented daily necessities to Cui Ronghe, captain of the sunk fishing boat after he and his 13 sailors returned from Namibe, a sea port in south Angola.

The 14 Chinese sailors were rescued from a South Korean fishing boat which was hit by a Panama oil tanker at 3:00 a.m. local time (0200 GMT) on February 7 in the Angola water territory.

Three other Chinese sailors were missing in the accident.
