     At Samshui the Si Kiang is connected by a short channel with the Pei Kiang, most of whose water, however, continues to the sea in a separate system of distributaries, except when one or the other is in flood.

At present the Si Kiang flows directly to the sea along the western side of the Delta, although in previous times it doubtless spread its waters over a wider area.
