把關者們

This is a story about Hong Kong Customs. The trio comprising Intellectual Property Investigation Bureau Senior Superintendent Hoi Fung, Trade Controls Bureau Chief Trade Controls Officer Kwan Pui-yan and Customs Drug Investigation Bureau Superintendent Wan Tsz-ki lead a contingent of elite customs officers and fresh-faced rookies, including Probationary Inspector Chan Ka-hing, to carry out diverse operations involving eggs, nuclear bombs, baby formula, heroin and much more. They are always ready to go all out not only on the ground, but also in the sky and at sea, showcasing a reinvented and ingenious Customs and Excise Department. This group of individuals adhere to the motto “Serve the Community with Commitment and Excellence”. Although they have their own issues, they can still overcome hurdles.
