Owing to the general trade depression in Malaya the Government of that country deemed it advisable to limit the number of Chinese immigrants from China and Hong Kong. From August 1st the shipping companies engaged in that trade were permitted to carry, during each month, 1/10th of the number they had carried on the corresponding month of the previous year.
Owing to the large numbers who left this port previous to August 1st the fall in the total numbers for the year is not so large as it otherwise would have been.
VACCINATION.
The Government Vaccinators are members of the Port Health Staff and work under the general supervision of the Port Health Officer. They are detailed for work at various centres and they assist where needed.
