The Hong Kong Marine Police have patrolled Hong Kong's waters for a hundred and fifty eventful years, during a time which has been tumultuous, even for the China Coast. Pirates, typhoon, wars, triumphs and defeats have all play a part in their story, which in many ways reflects that of Hong Kong itself.
