FUNG LOI YAU, age 20 years, master of Fishing Junk No.1172
H.A., Native of Hong Kong, states:-
At about 12.00 hours on 11th December, 1939, I 筲箕湾
left Shaukiwan Harbour on board the above junk to go fishing
in Chinese Waters together with a crew of 15.
At about 05.00 hours on 9th January, 1940, my junk
碣石
was at anchor about 5 miles off the shore at KIT SHEK Village
海丰
in HỐI FÙNG District, together with 5 other junks, when I
noticed a Japanese trawler go alongside a junk owned by
陳帶根
CHAN TAI KAN. At the same time I noticed some Japanese
sailors lower a motor boat which came alongside my junk.
Four Japanese sailors dressed in khaki uniform then boarded
my junk and told me to lower my dinghy and ordered me and my
crew into the dinghy and told us to row ashore. About half
an hour later I noticed the Japanese set fire to my junk.
The five other junks which were lying alongside my junk were
also on fire. I returned to my junk and with the assistance
of my crew put out the fire. The damage caused by fire to
my junk is about $1,000.00 Hong Kong currency. My junk was
only partly burnt.
At about 12.00 hours on 10th January, 1940 I set
sail for Hong Kong together with the crews of the five junks
which were lying alongside my junk. We arrived in Hong Kong
at 08.00 hours on 12th January, 1940. The five junks which
were lying alongside my junk all sank and became total loss.
