What are the Chinese characters of “Po Liu Chau”? --Menchi 17:53 16 Jul 2003 (UTC)

I was told that a small Japanese naval base located on the island during WWII conducted suicidal shipment attack . Can someone confirm this? 大将军, 都督中外诸军事 (talk) 09:44, 1 Feb 2004 (UTC)

A rumour. A cave near Sok Kwu wan is called "Kamikaze Cave". It may have been used to store munitions during the war, but no one really knows. 210.17.201.174 02:36, 11 January 2007 (UTC) Alan. 10 Jan 2006.[reply]

It is documented, unfortunately I loaned the history to a friend here on Lamma Island. A suicidal attack was made on Admiral Harcourt's squadron when it steamed in to Victoria Harbour after the Japanese surrender by a small boat or boats from Lamma Island. I will try to track down the reference. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 219.77.96.67 (talk) 02:40, 13 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
