Of course there are triads and gangsters in HK, but it is not
like what you see in the movies. Even if you go to Mong Kok where
in most movies are the dens of gangsters, you don't see what the
starter of the thread described. How do you classify a
gangland?
There are many prostitutes in Singapore, many in geyland, KS
street, ...Sometimes police find Thai prostitues operating from
bushes in Mandai, and then got china prostitues soliciting old chi
ko pek in HDB area. It is like prostitutes are everywhere leh, but
we cannot say singapore is a prostitute land.
Many Singaporeans living in HK are unanimous in the feeling that HK
is as safe as singapore, especially if you stay in HK island. Of
course if you want drugs and things like that, you will find the
triads very easily. Most triads operate in Macau, and I will call
Macau a gangland because there the triads really clash with the
police often, and among themselves more often. Reasons? the whole
place is full of prostitutes, gambling dens, casino and the head
shaking pills (don't what in english.)
