How many gangs are there in Hong Kong?

Since many Chinese B social organizations can be traced back to the triads in the Qing Dynasty, they are now generally used to refer to Chinese B social organizations, especially in Hong Kong. There are about 57 triad societies in Hong Kong today, most of which belong to small street gangs. Large triad organizations, including Xinyian, Heshenghe, 14K, etc., have thousands of people. Like black-handed parties in the United States and Italy, they are all criminal groups that have experienced accidents. It is said that there are about 2, to 3, formal members of society B in Hong Kong, and even as high as 4, to 5, if informal members are included. The activities of triad organizations include selling viper, money laundering, illegal gambling, organizing M Y, theft, extortion, etc. At present, some triad organizations' main economic income comes from the production and sale of pirated software, pirated CDs, pirated DVDs, etc., and they are also engaged in some activities of reselling contraband tobacco and alcohol. Roots In 176, the famous anti-Qing and vision organization Heaven and Earth Society (Hong Men) was established in China. Due to the huge branch of the Heaven and Earth Society, it is said that the triad is a branch in Guangdong and Guangxi. There are two versions of the origin of its name. One version says that Guangdong Province has three rivers, namely Beijiang, Dongjiang and Xijiang, hence the name triad. Another view is that Chen Jinnan, the founder of Hong Men, and the Qing soldiers died in Huizhou, and his successor, God bless Hongying, was well-led and had a strong team, so he was called the triad. Therefore, the organization uses triangles as its logo. The English name of the Triad was named by the British authorities in Hong Kong according to its name and flag. In fact, many participants in the Revolution of 1911 were members of Hong Men, such as Sun Yat-sen, the founding father of the country, and Qiu Jin, the martyr. During the revolutionary movement, a century later, some members of the original triad changed from patriotic organizations to criminal groups. After the fall of the Qing Dynasty in 1911, Hong Men was somewhat disoriented because of the sudden loss of goals. Worse still, they did not seize the opportunity to participate in the uprising, so some of them became angry and depressed. The authorities later declared the organization illegal, and the original public support and donations of the triad were cut off because of the fall of the Qing dynasty. Finally, because triad members could not return to the life of ordinary people, they used various methods to blackmail those who did not want to continue donating to them. So at this time, some early rebels began to reorganize triads, which is the embryonic form of triads in society B today. After China Communistparty came to power in Chinese mainland in 1949, organized crime gradually disappeared in Chinese mainland due to strict laws. However, as one of the so-called political parties, China Zhigong party actually originated from the branch of the Heaven and Earth Society in Hong Men. Gangs and triads were forced to move to Hong Kong, the then British colony. By 1931, Hong Kong was divided into different regions by eight main gangs, and different regions were controlled by different gangs. After the riots in Hong Kong in 1956, go-vern-ment cracked down on triad organizations gradually, and the activities of various gangs obviously converged. But the triad problem became more serious in the 196s and 197s. In the past, there were rumors that there was collusion between police and bandits, and triad organizations controlled social order. In case of abduction and other incidents, the police would summon gang leaders to solve the problem. On the other hand, the police will also cooperate with local gang leaders to control the territory. In 1974, due to the establishment of the Independent Commission Against Corruption, the corruption activities of the police were suppressed. Therefore, the territory of various gangs is gradually shrinking and the boundaries are gradually blurred. At the same time, due to the decrease in the profits of ordinary businesses, many gangs have turned to underground transactions. After 198s, with the development of triads, Sinuian became an oligarch among them, and controlled the film industry in Hong Kong in 198s and 199s. However, in recent years, due to the joint attack of anti-triad organizations on both sides of the strait, the scope of activities of triad organizations has been sharply reduced, so it is no longer easy to make money, so the struggle for gang leaders is not as fierce as before. While developing locally, overseas triads have gradually spread to the United States, Canada and other areas where Chinese people gather in large numbers. There are activities in San Francisco, new york, Chicago, Sacramento, Cupertino, Acadia, Las Vegas, Oakland, New Orleans, Vancouver and other places, and many people believe that triad organizations have launched new activities in London, Manchester and Amsterdam. The regular activities of these organizations are suspected of illegal immigration from East Asian organizations into the United States and Britain. At the same time, triad organizations also joined forces with some local street East Asian gangs to control the Asian gathering area. Well-known triad organizations and prefixes: Heshenghe Anle Hehetu and Shengyi Heshengtang 14K. The Organized Crime and Triad Bureau of Xinyian, the department to combat triad organizations, is: O Record.
