Beschreibung
"We had no jurisdiction outside Hong Kong waters. But we could see their vessels sinking in heavy seas. It was life or death. We just went." Former Marine Police officer Les Bird tells of the harrowing journey to Hong Kong made by tens of thousands of refugees in the years following the Vietnam War. He photographed their makeshift boats and his pictures tell the stories of these desperate refugees searching for a new life.

Über den Autor
Born in 1951 in England, Les Bird joined the Royal Hong Kong Police in 1976 and served for two decades in the lead-up to the change of sovereignty. He was a rural officer in the remote fishing town of Tai O, he was involved in bringing in Vietnamese refugees along the Southern Boundary, and he chased down the "big flyer" daai fei smuggling speedboats which carried stolen luxury cars across Mirs Bay to China. Bird is married with two daughters and still lives in Hong Kong.
