On 2nd April 1981 an unregistered single masted wooden sailing junk sized 7 by 2.5 metres arrived in Hong Kong with 48 passengers aboard (L/M 1265).

The passengers were found to consist of two distinct groups: 38 from Hon Gay, Quang Ninh Province, Northern Vietnam; and, 10 from Pingsha (1627/ 3097), Doumen (2435/7024) County, Guangdong Province. This report deals only with the latter group, the "ex-China" contingent of 10 persons.

@ PHUONG HƯU MINH (Vietnamese) living at Pingsha. Further detalls on this personality are given at paragraph 3(b) of the attached report.

The group set out from Dahu (1129/5706), Pingsha on 26th March 1981 on a river sailing boat, and sailed out to sea at Yamen (1509/7024). Although intercepted en route to Macau by militiamen, they were allowed to continue, entering Macau on 1st April, and being sent on the following day to Hong Kong aboard a Vietnamese vessel.
