Korean leaders get Asiad invite

The leaders of the two Koreas were invited to next month’s Asian Games in Indonesia after the neighbors agreed to field several joint teams at the event, Jakarta said Monday.

Indonesian president Joko Widodo sent a formal invitation Friday to South Korea’s President Moon Jae-in and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, Widodo’s spokesman said, but it was not immediately clear if either has responded.
