In 1978 the refugee vessel "Huey Fong" arrived with
some 3 000 Vietnamese on board and a special unit was established
to gather intelligence on organised trafficking.
Mr Lam was in command of the field enquiries, and
within a relatively short period was able to present evidence
that the arrival of the ship had been planned and that considerable
sums of money were involved.
