SINCE OPERATIONS BEGAN ON APRIL 23 A TOTAL OF 26 SPEED BOATS
HAD BEING MANUFACTURED IN FOUR SHIPYARDS
BEEN NEUTRALISED, MR LIM
SAID.
"PEOPLE BUILDING BOATS FOR SMUGGLING PURPOSES IN TAI PO AND OTHER AREAS ARE NO LONGER IN BUSINESS.
SUCCESS IN THE OPERATION HAD ALSO BEEN DUE TO THE JOINT EFFORTS OF THE POLICE, CUSTOMS AND EXCISE DEPARTMENT, IMMIGRATION DEPARTMENT AND THE MILITARY.
"MUCH OF OUR WORK DEPENDS ON OUR UNDERSTANDING OF EACH OTHERS' PROBLEMS," MR LIM SAID.
"AS SPEED BOATS ARE NOT ONLY BEING USED FOR SMUGGLING, THEY ARE ALSO BEING USED FOR CARRYING FIREARMS AND PEOPLE COMING INTO THE TERRITORY TO COMMIT CRIMES, WE ARE KEEN ΤΟ STOP ALL SPEED BOAT ACTIVITIES BY CLOSING ACCESS OF ENTRY OR EXIT.
"IN DRUGS AND OTHER CRIMINAL ACTIVITIES CONNECTED WITH SPEED BOATS WE NEED TO BE ON TOP OF THE PROBLEM.
