Officials investigating a “ghost ship” found mysteriously drifting off the coast of Burma this week solved the mystery of where the vessel came from on Friday. The rusty Sam Rataulangi PB 1600 freighter was discovered by fishermen in the Gulf of Maraban, about 7 miles off the coast near Yangon, the largest city in Burma, which is called Myanmar by its ruling junta.
