Tse Chi Lop’s drug-trafficking syndicate has spread across the world

MONG THE strangest by-products of the Cultural Revolution was the creation of one of the world’s most lethal organised-crime syndicates. When Mao Zedong at last turned against the Red Guards, he sent many of them to be re-educated in Guangdong, the province abutting Hong Kong. Either to avoid prison or after their release, many escaped to the British enclave, as Hong Kong was then, where some banded together as the Dai Huen Jai the Big Circle Boys. Since then the group has expanded operations to other parts of Asia as well as to Europe and North America.
