CO129-515-7 Recruitment of Chinese labour for Sarawak 7-12-1928 - 8-4-1929 — Page 4

The alternative to obtaining labourers

in the manner proposed, is to get them elsewhere

than Hong Kong through contractors. It is clear

that the Sarawak Covernment is trying to do

something to improve the conditions of labour,

and it may be easiest to encourage them to cont inue

their efforts if we help them to obtain labour

in the manner proposed.

The 0.A.G. is willing

to agree to the system if the S. of S. has no

objection, and on the whole, unless Fr. Boyd sees

any difficulties. I think we might approve.
