Capital account in the short time olapred since the Company was authorised to commence business on the 27th April laat.
Ours is but a modest affair at present, but Sandakan is a growing and progressive place and we feel confident that the Concession for the supply of electrical energy for Light and Power which has been taken over by us will in course of time prove valuable and remunerative to this Company. The former Company did a great deal of pioneer work, the benefit of which we shall reap au the demand for electricity increases and the number વર્સ ЦГ consumers becomes greater. All this is a matter of time, for our experience as General Manager with other El-ettic Light Companies has taught us that a large number of our customers have to be educated up to the use of both Light and Power before they will relinquis their old methods.
Our Ageate in Bandakan, Th North Borneo Trading Company Ltd., and all connected with our business there are very sanguine as to the. future of the o terpries and in this regard I cannot do better than quote the following extract from a letter from our Agenta there which reads as follows:
The care was remanded until Satur day.
