1941

[edit]

Attention to 1941: This implied the WSW helped Japanese kill Chinese villagers. Surely this is a load of rubbish. 81.154.27.213 (talk) 02:01, 22 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Not only the 1941 part, the whole entry is BS. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.2.135.208 (talk) 00:50, 18 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Trent Shaw

[edit]

I removed the following line from the minibus section:
The current owner of Wo Shing Wo (和勝和) is Trent Shaw.
It's unreferenced, and a quick search seems to confirm that Trent Shaw is head of the Wo Hop To.

History, individual incidents

[edit]

I moved these from the history section to talk for discussion because although they are referenced they are individual incidents. Do they real add anything to an article on a triad? I assume there are numerous other killings that occurred/ RJFJR (talk) 17:15, 16 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

In 2002 a fight in Birmingham's China Palace casino, involving WSW UK members and Vietnamese 14K triad. A UK WSW leader of Hong Kong origin but with ties to Holland, is murdered. The man was 46 year old Mann Chung Li, commonly called "Chung Goh", or "Brother Chung" in English.[1][2]

In 2010 WSW was involved in stabbing incident in Chinatown Manchester.[3]

On 24 February 2011, word had got out in a village near Falkirk that a man aged 24 linked with WSW had shot a teenager dead with an AK-47, and the man was thought to have been killed by gunshot wounds. The incident was thought to have started by an argument in the street and the teenager was killed trying to defend the person the man was arguing with.[citation needed]
