Describe the nature and evolution of Chinese Triad Societies.
What will be an ideal response?
Triads are secret Chinese organizations. Referred to as “black societies” by the Chinese, the British called them Triads because of their highly ritualistic use of numerology, a belief in the magical significance of numbers. The number 3 and multiples of 3 were accorded major importance by these groups. The symbol of Triad societies is an equilateral triangle with the three sides representing the three basic Chinese concepts of heaven, earth, and the human being.
