musical fanfare

man On October 24, 1980,

Hong Kong announced that illegal immigrants

would be expounded as soon as they're caught.

In front of Admiralty's Immigration Department,

people all crowded together

They hoped in the last 72-hour deadline,

they could become a permanent resident.

Despite the bad weather, they were undaunted.

They had joy and hope in them.

They hoped to become the few lucky ones.

In Hong Kong, do we really understand

how tough it is for them

to have experienced the journey

from the border to Tsim Sha Tsui?

Let's take a look

at the plight of the majority and unfortunate ones.

man Mr. Hok said to burn Fatty's men.

Be careful. Don't burn those illegals.

m G2?

That's my seventh time illegal entry.

Twice I got caught by British Army,

four times by the smuggler's gang.

Seven times?

This is also the last time.

|'|| fight to death with whoever stops me.

Your hair and beard are long.

You don't look a bit like an illegal immigrant.

I had lived here for four months.

Four months already?

I took some time to grow hair and beard.

And get to know Hong Kong.

You don't have relatives in Hong Kong?

I have. They don't have money for smugglers.

Hong Kong people have no money?

Some have. Others don't want to pay.

Seven times here, so I have seen everything.

In these four months,

I gathered that the smuggler chief has gone berserk.

Get a relative's phone number, and you'll be treated well.

Otherwise, you'll be in deep trouble.

They sold the girls to whorehouse

and pushed the men into the sea to die.

Then they had treated you well.

They let you stay here for four months.

They were never good to anyone.

Before coming here,

I stole a grenade from the militias.

Grenade?

All for this, I got food and drink

and newspaper.

When I knew more about HK,

I would not need people to pay for me.

It's just 20 to 30 miles from here to Tsim Sha Tsui.

Not too far nor too near.

All depends on how you get there.

Is it worth it? I think...

You need to go regardless of anything.

We all agreed before we set off.

At least we have to take a look.

Hard time?

We have borne it all in the past.

But...

There are illegal immigrants.
