Police, in a nod to one of Tse´s nicknames, have called it Sam Gor, Cantonese for 'Brother Number Three.' A US Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) intelligence document shared with regional government agencies says Tse is 'believed to be' the leader of the Sam Gor syndicate. Four of the 19 Sam Gor syndicate leaders on the AFP list are Canadian citizens, including Tse, whom police often refer to as 'T1' - the top target. In the Sam Gor syndicate, police face a nimble and elusive adversary. When authorities had success stopping the drug motherships, police said, Sam Gor switched to hiding its product in shipping containers.
