Overview
The Triads are a Chinese crime syndicate holding Chinatown in Portland in Grand Theft Auto III. They run legitimate-looking businesses such as a laundrette and a fish factory, and they clash with the Leone family over protection money.
Triad members wear blue, carry bats, pistols and Uzis, and drive the Triad fish vans and Mr. Wongs laundry vans.

The Triads have a long presence in Chinatown. When the laundrette refuses to keep paying the Leones, the dispute escalates into a full street war.
