Chui A-poo

Chui A-poo (; died 1851), also referred to as Chui Apo , was a 19th-century Qing Chinese pirate who commanded a fleet of over 50 junks in the South China Sea. He was regarded as one of the two most notorious South China Sea pirates of the era, along with Shap-ng-tsai.

He is said to have lived in Wong Ma Kok village of Stanley, where Wong Ma Kok Road lies now, for more than a decade.

From September to early-October 1849, John Dalrymple-Hay led the British fleet included HMS Columbine, HMS Hastings, and HMS Fury, along with Canton, a borrowed ship from P&O. His trial was a milestone for the judiciary system of Hong Kong. George Bonham hired a defense attorney with public fund for Chui, a first in Hong Kong's history.
