LING TONG

Submitted by Theodor Strauss on Thu, 2020-04-16 23:56

In 1927 a ship called TJILEBOET stranded on a small island called LING TONG.  Does anyone know the current name and preferably be able to show me a map of Hong Kong where the island is located.  Guidance the ship was on her way to Singapore.
