- Lam Yuen-yee MBG (Chinese: 林婉儀; 1984-2021) was a posthumous Chief Inspector of Hong Kong Police Marine Small Boat Division, who died in action on 25 September 2021 near Sha Chau Island in the northwest waters of Hong Kong after a smuggling speedboat slammed into her police interceptor, causing it to capsize. Lam and three other police officers on board fell into the sea. While three officers were rescued shortly after, Lam was found missing and her body was retrieved two days after near the coast of Yi O on Lantau Island. A ceremony with the highest honours and a funeral procession was held for Lam on 2 November 2021. Lam was laid to rest in the Gallant Garden, a plot at Wo Hop Shek Public Cemetery reserved for civil servants who died on duty. Major Government officers including Chief Executive Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor attended the ceremony. A weekly press meeting with the Chief Executive and the meeting of the Executive Council was cancelled to make way for Lam’s funeral. On 15 November 2021, Lam was posthumously awarded the Medal for Bravery (Gold) by the Chief Executive in recognition of her gallantry and selflessness displayed during the operation. (en)
