FOUR HEAVENLY KINGS & SINGAPORE

The "Four Heavenly Kings" was a secret society in Singapore that was active in the 1960s and 1970s. The group was notorious for its involvement in a wide range of criminal activities, including extortion, smuggling, and drug trafficking. The name "Four Heavenly Kings" is a reference to a group of Buddhist deities that are commonly depicted in Chinese mythology.

The Four Heavenly Kings were known for their brutal tactics and their willingness to use violence to achieve their goals. The group was made up of members from different ethnic groups, including Chinese, Malays, and Indians. The gang was organized into different factions, each with its own leader and hierarchy.

One of the most infamous members of the Four Heavenly Kings was Tan Ah Huat, also known as "One-Eyed Dragon." Tan was the leader of the gang's Chinese faction and was widely feared for his ruthlessness and brutality. He was known to use a variety of weapons, including guns and knives, and was responsible for a number of high-profile crimes in Singapore.

The Four Heavenly Kings were eventually brought down by a combination of police action and internal conflict. Many of the group's leaders were arrested and imprisoned, while others were killed in gang-related violence. Today, the Four Heavenly Kings are seen as a cautionary tale of the dangers of gang activity, and their legacy serves as a reminder of the need to remain vigilant against organized crime.
