Spokesperson of the Hong Kong Comprehensive Police Force

Chapter 994: Troops Begin

The reason why the Golden Triangle region has become one of the world's three largest drug raw material production bases is not just because of its special geographical location and an environment and climate that is suitable for the growth of drug raw materials.

The most important point is the corruption and dereliction of duty of the border defense departments of Myanmar, Laos and Thailand.

Especially the Thai border guards, some of the generals are simply the umbrellas behind the drug lords.

The public security system in my hometown has been committed to promoting joint actions among the four countries to clean up the filthy Golden Triangle region, thereby further strengthening its own border security.

During this process, the attitudes of Myanmar and Laos were relatively cooperative.

After all, these two countries border my hometown’s territory, and my voice at the international level is not loud enough.

As long as the hometown is firm in its attitude, Myanmar and Laos must give face to the hometown.

But the situation in Thailand is undoubtedly completely different from that in Myanmar and Laos.

Not only is Thailand one of the strongest countries in Southeast Asia, it is also separated from its hometown by Myanmar and Laos.

As long as it does not affect its own interests, Thailand does not mind giving its hometown some face.

However, joint operations in the Golden Triangle region clearly go against the vested interests of many Thai border troops.

It is precisely because of this that even the highest official in the Thai police system, Police General Pongsapak, has a close relationship with the top officer of the Hong Kong Island Police Force, Sir Quan.

There is also a close cooperative relationship between the Hong Kong Police Force and the Thai National Police.

However, the local public security system behind the Hong Kong Police Force still cannot convince the Thai side to launch a four-nation joint operation against the Golden Triangle.

After all, Pongsapha was just a police general.

The generals of the Thai border guards near the Golden Triangle area are real military commanders.

The two are not in the same system, and the Thai military can be completely rude to the Thai Police General Department.

Unless some opportunity arises, such as the solid intelligence information on the Golden Triangle region in Zhou Quan's hands.

Under such circumstances, the Thai National Police has sufficient reasons to forcibly push forward the anti-drug operation in the Golden Triangle region.

If the Thai border guards continue to obstruct, it would undoubtedly be an act of trying to cover up one's own guilt and admitting to their collusion with the drug lords in the Golden Triangle.

From a public perspective, the intelligence information Zhou Quan has collected over the years is enough for the Thai military to clean up its own mess and get rid of the dirty and shady border guards in the Golden Triangle region.

Personally, the friendship between Zhou Quan and Pongsapah is fully capable of facilitating the Thai National Police to cooperate with the upcoming four-nation joint anti-drug operation.

As long as the public security system of the hometown, the Hong Kong Police Force, and the Thai Police Headquarters reach a consensus.

As for the opinions of the police systems of Myanmar and Laos, there is actually no need to ask for them at all.

Sandwiched between their hometown and Thailand, and with their own strength far inferior, Myanmar and Laos could only cooperate in the end.

What's more, corruption, embezzlement and dereliction of duty are also prevalent in the border control departments of these two countries.

With so much irrefutable evidence on the table, how could these two countries refuse?

"Okay, let's do it according to your idea, A Quan."

With a slight nod, Hao Jianguo couldn't help but show a relaxed arc at the corner of his mouth.

"You are responsible for contacting the Thai police department, and I am responsible for the police departments of Myanmar and Laos."

As he spoke, he began to sort out the intelligence information in front of him, and finally divided it into two parts.

One part contained intelligence and evidence about the five major drug lords in the Golden Triangle, and the other part contained information about the undercover informant arranged by Zhou Quan. "Ah Quan, let me introduce someone to you."

Pushing the undercover informant's information in front of Zhou Quan, Hao Jianguo continued with a smile: "He will be responsible for cooperating with you in the specific implementation of the follow-up actions."

The layout of the undercover operation targeting the Golden Triangle area is the result of years of hard work by Zhou Quan, the top officer of the Hong Kong Island Police Force.

Due to his firm stance towards the country, Zhou Quan could present this information to Hao Jianguo without reservation.

But how could Hao Jianguo himself disregard Zhou Quan's intentions and even cause those special agents in the Golden Triangle drug den to risk their identities being exposed?
The intelligence and evidence about the five major drug lords in the Golden Triangle region are enough to promote Hao Jianguo's plan of joint action involving four countries and five locations.

As for the intelligence information of those special agents, it is better to return it to its original owners.

Regardless of whether Zhou Quan decides to make this information public, the information is in the hands of the Ministry of Public Security and will definitely only be known to Hao Jianguo.

Before Zhou Quan could react, Hao Jianguo stood up and walked towards his desk.

"Please ask Director Yu Ping from the Narcotics Control Bureau to come to my office!"

Raising his hand and pressing the call button of the internal telephone, Hao Jianguo gave an order to the administrative secretary who was on standby outside the office.

"When Director Yu arrives, just send him in!"

At the same time, Zhou Quan, who was still sitting in the reception area, was also waiting.

He reorganized the information of his undercover brothers and solemnly put it into the safe.

Afterwards, he leisurely tasted the tea collected by the boss.

Now that official business has come to a temporary halt, Zhou Quan naturally cannot let this rare and precious treasure in front of him go to waste.

Although the temperature of the tea has cooled down, it does not affect Zhou Quan's experience of the rich and mellow aroma in his mouth.

Zhou Quan had just taken a sip of the top-quality Dahongpao when Hao Jianguo sat back down on the reception sofa.

Afterwards, the two did not continue discussing business, but chatted while waiting for the arrival of Director Yu Ping.

"Boom! Boom!"

About ten minutes later, there was a heavy knock on the door.

Since Hao Jianguo had said so beforehand, his administrative secretary pushed open the door of the office directly.

Then, a middle-aged man in a dark blue police uniform, carrying a silver olive branch and three four-pointed stars on his shoulders, walked in with firm steps.

He is a first-level police inspector in charge of drug control work within the public security system in his hometown and is a well-deserved powerful figure.

Even if he is transferred to the local level, he is still qualified to be the boss responsible for the public security and stability maintenance work of a province.

"Minister, Yu Ping from the Narcotics Control Bureau reports to you!"

Yu Ping came to the reception sofa, stood at attention, raised his hand to salute, and greeted his immediate superior with a serious expression.

Then, he turned 45 degrees on the spot and faced Zhou Quan in a very standard stop-turn movement.

"Hello, Sir Quan!"

There is no clear standard for comparing the ranks of the Hong Kong Police Force and the police ranks of the police system in their hometown.

However, judging from the level of reception Zhou Quan had received whenever he visited home in the north, as the top officer of the Hong Kong Island Police Force, he was qualified enough to receive the salute and greeting from a First-Class Police Inspector.
