A tong (Chinese: 堂; pinyin: táng; Jyutping: tong4; Cantonese Yale: tong; lit. 'hall') is a type of organization found among Chinese immigrants predominantly living in the United States, with smaller numbers in Canada, Australia, and the United Kingdom. In Chinese, the word tong means "hall" or "gathering place". These organizations are described as secret societies or sworn brotherhoods and are often tied to criminal activity. In the 1990s, in most American Chinatowns, clearly marked tong halls could easily be found, many of which have had affiliations with Chinese organized crime.

(sv) Una tong (en chino, 堂; pinyin, táng; jyutping, tong4; Yale cantonés, tong; literalmente, ‘salón’ ) es un tipo de organización que se encuentra entre inmigrantes chinos, predominantemente aquellos que viven en los Estados Unidos, con números menores en Canadá, Australia y el Reino Unido. En chino, la palabra tong significa "salón" o "lugar de reunión." Tales organizaciones son descritas como sociedades secretas o hermandades bajo juramento y, a menudo, están vinculadas a actividades delictivas. En la década de 1990, se podían encontrar fácilmente salones tong en la mayoría de barrios chinos estadounidenses, claramente demarcados, muchos de los cuales tenían afiliaciones con el crimen organizado chino.

(en) Un Tong (dal cantonese 廟堂, letteralmente "Posto dove incontrare la famiglia estesa", "Associazione") è una società segreta sino-americana. I tong sono nati verso la fine del XIX secolo, ai tempi della prima generazione di emigrati cinesi, nelle Chinatown delle maggiori metropoli statunitensi, come società di mutuo soccorso riconosciute dal governo degli Stati Uniti d'America. Sebbene i tong non siano stati esplicitamente creati per guadagni illeciti ma piuttosto per una mutua protezione e supporto, le loro attività spesso si fanno beffe della legge o le organizzazioni diventano completamente criminali, come attesta la loro sistematica infiltrazione da parte delle Triadi e l’esistenza di varie gang cinesi di strada affiliate a questo o quel tong (negli anni '80, ad esempio, la Ghost Shadows (it)
