Yee Tong (YT)

Yee Tong, better known as YT is one of the Big Four triad gangs operating in Sydney and Melbourne (Yee Tong, Sing Wah, 14K, Big Circle). As of today, YT is the market leader in street level distribution of Cocaine in Sydney, shifting its business focus from protection rackets of karaokes and bars. YT is particularly known for steady control of supply in the City (Haymarket) and North Shore (Chatswood) areas. In the past YT members were often identifiable through distinct tattoos (a Y with wings) but many new members often do not have this tattoo. Members sporting this tattoo are likely to be of a higher rank.

YT is infamous for their murder of a Korean international student who happened to be the younger brother of a famous Korean actor in World Square

YT is also known for their beef with Sing Wah which sparked a wild brawl https://www.news.com.au/national/nsw-act/students-lured-into-a-life-of-crime-as-violence-between-the-yee-tong-singwa-and-big-circle-gangs-escalates/news-story/66b92afab1a0bdbf7330014a7e084007

However, the inter-triad beef as appeared to die down as leaders have agreed to delineate various markets to prevent violence and stay off the radar.

Most members are Chinese, however Vietnamese and Koreans also make up a sizeable portion of membership.
