Synopsis
This book, the first to unearth both past and present records kept by the social associations of Singapore and Malaya, reveals from the inside how the Chinese community was organized, how its members treated each other, and what problems they faced., In 19th-century Singapore and Malaya, much of the community's social life revolved around associations--neither secret or sinister as history has claimed--which offered the Chinese against alien administration and, in the case of minorities, against the dominant clans of the time. This book, the first to unearth both past and present records kept by these associations and to interview their elders, reveals from the inside how the Chinese community was organized, how its members treated each other, and what problems they faced.

    Another fantastic transaction. Seller was very responsive to a question I had about the item, and shipped it straight away, same day as my order. As before, the program was very well-packaged in a plastic sleeve within a padded envelope enforced with cardboard. Good doing business.

    Mark! Much thanks for my 1st Edition of Scott Fitzgerald's "All The Sad Young Me." As advertised, a very good copy mailed to me at warp speed and exceptionally well packed. We had a minor glitch, but you went above and beyond to rectify it and I could not be more please. Most professional of you and could not have asked for more. Looking forward to doing business again and only wish there were more book merchants out there as kind as you! Cheers and regards to you and yours. AAAAAAA++++++
