Even though there have been reports that 27,000-strong Hong Kong Police have difficulty in dealing with 100,000-strong gang members, the counter-view says the Hong Kong police force is a highly-structured and well trained team, compared to the hardly organized gangs with many members coming and going, or being even mercenaries.
Tackling the problems brought by triads is one of the greatest challenges to Hong Kong's law enforcement teams. The Organized Crime and Triad Bureau (OCTB) plays a major role, and ...

1990s in Hong Kong - Emigration.
Before the handover, many Hong Kong residents were apprehensive of the future of Hong Kong as part of a communist state, which had cracked down on a student-led democratic movement in 1989. In 1990, the outflow of people reached a peak of 62,000 people in that year, or about 1 percent of the population. It was 66,000 in 1992, 53,000 in 1993, and 62,000 in 1994.
Many renowned tycoons in Hong Kong, such as the Shaw family, left Hong Kong for fear of adverse effects to the eco ...

 |  |  | Triad - Migration to Hong Kong: Encyclopedia II - Transfer of the sovereignty of Hong Kong - Migration tideAfter the Tiananmen Square Democracy Movements and Massacre in 1989, many Hongkongers were pessimistic towards the future of Hong Kong and the transfer of the region's sovereignty. A tide of emigration, which was to last for no less than five years, broke out. At its peak, citizenships of such small countries as Cape Verde were also in great demand. Many consulates were deported for their corruptive behaviour in granting immigration visas.
Canada, Australia, and the United States were, by and large, the most popular destinations. The ...

Various mediating measures took place in the run-up to 1997 to prepare for the handover.
On April 4, 1990, the Hong Kong Basic Law was officially ratified as the constitutional document to be used, after the handover, of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR).
Following the Tiananmen Square protests of 1989, citizens feard the Chinese government would not keep its promise of autonomy for Hong Kong, which had been guaranteed for 50 years by the H ...

 |  |  | Triad - Migration to Hong Kong: Encyclopedia II - 1990s in Hong Kong - EconomyThe Hang Seng Index (HSI) was volatile after the takeover. It rose from over 10,000 in the middle of 1996 to a height of 16,820.3 on August 7, 1997. Speculators bet that there would be an influx of hot money from Mainland China to boost the economy of Hong Kong. Any stock linked to the Chinese economy or which had successful dealings in China had great potential.
In July 1997, the Thai government's decision to float the Thai Baht triggered a currency crisis that spread throughout Asia. One by one, the New Taiwan Dollar, Korean Won, and Indonesian Rupiah tumbled in price. All th ...

 |  |  | Triad - Migration to Hong Kong: Encyclopedia II - Transfer of the sovereignty of Hong Kong - BackgroundIn March 1979, the Governor of Hong Kong Murray MacLehose paid his first official visit to the PRC, taking the initiative to raise the question of Hong Kong's sovereignty with Deng Xiaoping. Without clarifying and establishing the official position of the PRC government, the arranging of real estate leases and loans agreements in Hong Kong within the next 18 years would be rather difficult. In fact, as early as the mid 1970s, Hong Kong had faced additional risks raising loans for large scale infra-structure projects such as its MTR system an ...

Transfer of the sovereignty of Hong Kong - Before the war of words.
In the wake of Governor MacLehose's visit, Britain and the PRC established initial diplomatic contact for further discussions of the Hong Kong question, paving the way for Thatcher’s first visit to the PRC in September 1982. Margaret Thatcher, engaged in discussion with Deng Xiaoping, reiterating the validity for an extension of the lease of Hong Kong territory, particularly in light of binding treaties, including the Treaty of Nanking in 1840, ...

The first draft was published in April 1988, followed by a five-month public consultation exercise. The second draft was published in February 1989, and the subsequent consultation period ended in October 1989. The Basic Law was formally promulgated on 4 April 1990 by the NPC, together with the designs for ...

This was regarded as a turning point in Hong Kong's history. Unlike the predecessors, Patten was not a diplomat but a career politician and former MP. He introduced democratic reforms which pushed PRC-British relations to a standstill and affected the negotiations for a smooth handover.
Patten introduced a package of electoral reforms in the Legislative Council. These reforms proposed to enlarge the electorate, thus making voting in the Legislative Council more democratic. This move posed significant changes because the H ...

The business failed, and Rennie hanged himself there in 1908. (Tiu Keng Leng was originally as 吊頸嶺 in Chinese, meaning "Hanging (neck) Ridge".)
In the 1950s the (British) Hong Kong government settled a considerable number of refugees from China - former Nationalist soldiers and other Kuomintang supporters - at Rennie's Mill, following the Chinese civil war. For many years the area was a Kuomintang enclave ...
