This is a young Black Drongo - note the fairly slim build and long, deeply forked tail with only a slight upturn to the outer tail feathers. Black also seems to be the commoner species on Lamma.

The white undertail coverts (and dull body feathers) are an indicator that this is a young bird from this year.

Apologies thought with the sheen on the upper body feathers thought it would be a Hair-crested Drongo - have corrected the Thread title & the title on one of the images.
