1871 CE

Yap Ah Loy has been faced with internecine fighting among dissident Chinese groups from 1870, as well as attacks from Malay factions.

The two largest Chinese gangster organizations, the Hakka-dominated Hai San and the Cantonese-dominated Ghee Hin, frequently engage in warfare to gain control of tin production in the town.

The incessant warfare between the two factions brings tin mining to a standstill.
