All goods, of which the importation is not prohibited, shall be disinfected on arrival, if in the opinion of the Health Officer of the Port they have been infected.
Particulars about the medical inspection of the ship on arrival in a Netherland-Indian port, and of the passengers and baggage, and about the formalities to be complied with by the masters of ships arriving in Netherlands-India within 21 days after their departure from a plague infected port, etc., will be given on application at the Netherlands Consulate- General at Hongkong, where an English version of the Netherland-Indian Quarantine Ordinance is at the disposal of those concerned,
