    These interviews really humanize the individuals... When people read an organization's name, they automatically judge by the group's mystique... not realizing how much each person is no different than you and I.

    Thanks Fat tiger for mentioning the Ong Leong elections. I was just a kid back then recruited to vote for a new GS leader- think was for Nicky Louie and remembering the initiation incense process to get a red envelope. We were hungry back then with two hundred strong. Nobody fucked with the GS back in the 80s. The Freemasons were weak but you’re right they knew their Kung fu back then. Thanks for the memories- take care OG!

      @@pkgs1979 that’s kind of true bc all the OG come to Philly never met a GS. Most of them FD. I don’t even think any GS come through here. BTK. Yes. Some TO boys in the 80’s who I was cool with but they didn’t know my friends and they messed with with one of girls and they took a beating. I told them look this not NY. This Philly you have to respect people’s turf. We go yo NY we respect you guys bc it’s not our turf. I said you can bring guys down but no matter what we know who you are bc you not one of us. It’s all about respect. Like how you get along with some of the OG FD. There is no real gangs in Philly Chinatown just the neighborhood guys and kids. But we tight defend our community. But don’t bother anyone unless you mess with us. Another note I wish Dai Gow Hung was still around I would say Fat Tiger asking about you. 😆. I see his ex wife around and his daughter who is engaged to my friend. Keep up the stories.
