Description

This scholarly examination by Yiu Kong Chu investigates Hong Kong triads as sophisticated international criminal organisations, exploring their origins, methods, and evolution. The book addresses widespread concerns following Hong Kong's handover to China about triad influence spreading westward through emigration. Chu provides an in-depth analysis of triad operations, including their systematic extortion networks targeting legitimate businesses of all sizes and their expansion into illegal activities. Part of the Routledge Studies in the Modern History of Asia series, this work separates documented reality from popular myth, offering readers a rigorous academic perspective on organised crime structures and their business operations. The study combines historical context with contemporary concerns about transnational criminal networks.

Key Features

Investigates systematic extortion practices targeting both large and small legitimate businesses.

Analyses the origins and evolution of triad organisations within modern Asian history.

Published by Routledge as part of their established Studies in the Modern History of Asia series.

Addresses post-handover concerns about triad expansion into Western markets through immigration patterns.
