ARTICLE II.
The Siamese Government engage to take all necessary measures to prohibit and prevent the sale of spirits manufactured in Siam which may be deleterious to the public health.
ARTICLE IV.
Any British subject who desires to retail spirituous liquors, beer, or wines in Siam must take out a special licence for that purpose from the Siamese Government, which shall not be refused without just and reasonable cause.
This licence may be granted upon conditions to be agreed upon from time to time between the two Governments.
ARTICLE V.
British subjects shall at all times enjoy the same rights and privileges in regard to the importation and sale of spirits, beer, wines, and spirituous liquors in Siam as the subjects of the most favoured nation; and spirits, beer, wines, and spirituous liquors coming from any part of Her Britannic Majesty's dominions shall enjoy the same privileges in all respects as similar articles coming from any other country the most favoured in this respect.
It is therefore clearly understood that British subjects are not bound to conform to the provisions of the present Convention to any greater extent than the subjects of other nations are so bound.
ARTICLE VI.
Subject to the provisions of Article V, the present Agreement shall come into operation on a date to be fixed by mutual consent between the two Governments, and shall remain in force until the expiration of six months' notice given by either party to determine the same.
The existing Treaty engagements between Great Britain and Siam shall continue in full force until the present Agreement comes into operation, and after that date, except in so far as they are modified hereby.
Should the present Agreement be terminated, the Treaty engagements between Great Britain and Siam shall revive, and remain as they existed previously to the signature hereof.
ARTICLE VII.
In this Agreement, the words "British subject" shall include any naturalized or protected subject of Her Britannic Majesty; and the words "Her Majesty's Consul" shall include any Consular officer of Her Britannic Majesty in Siam.
In witness whereof the Undersigned have signed the same in duplicate, and have affixed thereto their seals.
Done at London the sixth day of April, 1888, corresponding to the fourteenth day of the fourth of the waning moon of the month Phagunamas, of the year Horse, Fourth Decade, 1244, of the Siamese Astronomical Era.
