Imperial Post Office sends daily couriers to Langson in Tonkin and couriers every five days to Nanning with connections to Canton and Pakhoi. An establishment of the Imperial Maritime Customs is maintained here. The net value of the trade coming under the cognisance of the Foreign Customs for 1903 was Tls. 132,414 against Tls. 77,059 for 1902, Tls. 164,494 for 1901, and Tls. 132,510 for 1900. The as onishing decrease in the figures for 1902 was almost entirely due to the large quantity of Aniseed Oil imported during the previous years, while not a single catty was reported to the Customs in 1902. The increase in the returns for 1903 is attributable to the great quantity of rice imported from Tonkin on account of the Famine in 1903.
