CO129-210 - Governor Sir Bowen - 1883 [6-7] — Page 214

CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案 All AI Reviewed

A system of photographs has been introduced for female immigrants & the inmates of brothels, with the object of preventing personation before the Immigration Officer or the Registrar General, and as the photographs are all in accord with the views of enabling enquiries to be made.

Main Children Relations or forms who have been kidnapped or enticed away - The Chinese Society, abounds reforms to report that since the adoption of the system "The number of young people who are inveigled into (the trade) or bought for the purposes of being immoral has gradually decreased."

It is satisfactory to find that the existing Ordinances when worked with energy and discretion, as they appear to be by the Registrar General, are capable of being turned to good account.

Prosecutions have been successfully instituted against offenders, and we should give another paper, & refer to Lockhart's Minute on XCR(87)17/1/83.

Get the paper at once for consideration alone. Pulley you?

Securing liberty for these wretched women, and for repressing the evils of the brothel slavery against which they were directed were meant to be.
