In July 1910, it became the center of a dramatic conflict known as the Pathbreakers Incident. A group of students were kidnapped by pirates, sparking outrage and demands for action. The Portuguese government initially hesitated. The area fell under Macau’s jurisdiction, adding complexity to the situation. Eventually, troops were dispatched, but they were met with fierce resistance from the pirates. The villagers, caught in the crossfire, suffered casualties. The battle raged, culminating in a tragic climax. The pirates, escaping under cover of a storm, left behind a devastated village. Portuguese forces set fire to the remaining structures, resulting in further loss of life. Monte de Ká Hó bears the scars of this event. Yet, life returned to the mountain.
