Sir,
Re. Klior Kolaiya
Reference Bushire telegram / I have
the honour to forward a report from the Adviser to the
Bahrein State giving the pros and cons of the proposed
scheme for a harbour at Khor Kalaiya. The Bahrein State
is not in a position to finance the scheme by themselves,
but if the British Government are prepared to undertake
the work for reasons of their own, it is probable that the
Bahrein state would make a small contribution.
The largest immediate gainers by the scheme
would appear to be the British India Company# so it is
possible that that Company would also see their way to
make same contribution towards the/expense of the harbour.

The scheme was condidered in 19$5 please see
